The modular design concept revolves around creating reusable engineering solutions where portions of previous designs are integrated into new projects. This method is exemplified through various modular components such as slide modules, conveyor modules, pick and place units, and drill head modules.

Modular Design Concept

Disadvantage
General function (does not allow creativity)
Proprietary core technology(unknown to standard manufacturing as we did not do it by ourselves)
Constraint by workstation specification
Costly
Larger Machine Size
Advantage
Ease of upgrading,scalable ,similar product available
Faster delivery time, quick time to market
Lower inventory and engineering cost
Remove design uncertainty
Shorten overall design time (Standard)
Known Specifications
Proven design/Fully debugged
What is it?
Example : Slide Module ,Conveyor Module,Pick and Place, Drill head module
Strategy : General usefulness for whole of module families' design for future products.
Manufacturing : assembled by "building blocks" modules
Technique :functions designed in modules combined in subsequent designs. Integrates standard workstation to perform tasks.
reusable engineering - portions of previous designs used as new designs.
Introduction
Machine modules made up of standard machine elements & customised parts and components
Can be design-in house / standard purchased from external soruce
machine built from different modules capable of certain operation/process
Conventional - design from ground up
