Modular design of a product to maximize customer satisfaction with respect to body size: A case study for designing office chair

Abstract: Modular design methodology is a very important design methodology that allows production of the maximal types of products with the minimal types of components and extending the components' compatibility to different types of products to satisfy a variety of customers. However, existing modular design methods do not consider customers' adaptability for products requiring physical interaction between different parts of body and product components. Our study proposes a modular design methodology from the perspect… Show more

“…No. In order to verify the superiority, effectiveness and feasibility of the PMP model presented in this paper, the traditional clustering method DSM is selected as the comparison experiment (Li and Mirhosseini, 2012;Hwang and Choi, 2011;Siao et al, 2013). According to physical structure of parts and product data of loaders, the similarities between the parts are calculated, and the similarity matrix for 24 parts is shown in Table 3.…”

“…Different seats were compared to one another by considering their positive or negative effects on user's body instead of appraising the overall satisfaction level [11,12,13,14,15]. Besides, there are some papers in literature, in which survey results about the users' seating comfort, evaluation of a specific chair or comparison of different chair, were given [2,15,16,17]. At the end of all these studies, it can be said that seating comfort is the result of interaction among the features of the user, job and seat.…”

“…Agard and Bassetto 16 proposed a single-level modular design formulation considering quality and cost simultaneously to meet customer requirements. Hwang and Choi 17 proffered a modular design methodology to maximize customer satisfaction. Meng et al 18 proposed a new module identification method taking manufacturing efficiency into account in product development.…”
