Design for Manufacturing and Assembly (DFMA) is a crucial design stage withinthe heavy vehicle manufacturing process that involves optimising the order andfeasibility of the parts assembly process to reduce manufacturing complexityand overall cost. Existing work has focused on conducting DFMA within virtualenvironments to reduce manufacturing costs, but users are less able to relateand compare physical characteristics of a virtual component with real physicalobjects. Therefore, a Mixed Reality (MR) application is developed for engineersto visualise and manipulate assembly parts virtually, conduct and plan out anassembly within its intended physical environment. Two pilot evaluations wereconducted with both engineering professionals and non-engineers to assesseffectiveness of the software for assembly planning. Usability results suggestthat the application is overall usable (M=56.1, SD=7.89), and participants felta sense of involvement in the activity (M=13.1, SD=3.3). Engineeringprofessionals see the application as a useful and cost-effective tool foroptimising their mechanical assembly designs.
