Follow-up – Result and Reports

There are currently two interesting reports that can be printed after completing a DFX analysis: the generic DFX report and the Notes report.

The DFX report, which is printable for all types of DFX analyses, is possible to print either by selecting a DFX analysis in the DFX view, or when the DFX analysis editor is open. The print action is accessible either via the print button in the main toolbar, or via “File ® “Print”.

The Notes report (a standard report available not only for the DFX module) is preferably executed by selecting the top-level Component of the BOM that has been DFX analysed. This will include all Notes for every Component below the top-level one. Once again, select Print but this time select the Notes report. For information about options concerning sorting and filtering when printing a Notes report please see Guide to Notes report under help in AviX.

The Result view can be used to display tabular results for one and more DFX analyses. It’s major benefit is the ability to compare two different analyses (“analysis of original BOM” v/s “analysis of re-design”; see also the section below) and to sort the columns in order to find the “worst” components within a BOM.

Score: DFA score that can be compared with the same product in another state of design process
Score %: number of points compared to the total number of points possible.
Agg score: summary of all parts
Agg score %: Should be at least 70% to get a good product. (score divided with total score)
Time/agg time: Optimal time is 3 seconds and for some red and yellow answers it gives added time
Agg time%: how many times longer is required to perform the assembly, (Ex 500% means 5 times longer than optimal)

AVIX DFA KPI

DFA Score: Only to compare two designs of the same product

DFA score %: Compare between all products regardless of what, not to be below 70%

Time agg %: The theoretical time it takes to assemble a part/product in % compared to if it was optimal 3 sec.
