Abstract

The study identifies diverse methodologies related to new designs development and implementation, in conjunction with product function analysis for each component interacting into system assembly, through multidisciplinary work teams. Automotive gasoline module and its components evaluated looking forward improvement opportunities and cost reductions, affecting directly components shape and quantity. Results show up: material components change, assembly components modification, components quantity goes up and down based on customer needs. Several methodologies combined as concurrent engineering, reverse engineering, and design for manufacturing among others are used. Prototypes constructed in 3D printer using selective laser sintering. Statistical tests were positive.
