Automotive Body Panel Surface Classification 982337

A demand for high-quality body panels has been needed in the automotive industry in recent years. However, the quality aspect has not been achieved by a number of companies because it has not been classified until now. It is the intention of this paper to outline the total surface-quality classification, particularly for automotive body panels. The surface classification will be compiled from a number of important sources in the automotive industry. The methodology will then be implemented in an Automotive Advisory System by which the design for manufacture philosophy will be controlled.
