Project scope
Modern height-adjustable desks are offered in a wide range of configurations, resulting in a highly complex part structure with thousands of possible combinations. Managing this complexity efficiently is a growing challenge in both engineering and production.
This thesis focuses on developing a system to structure and manage product variants. The goal is to enable engineers to define compatibility between parts and configurations and allow others to input product specifications and automatically generate accurate part lists. Ideally, the system could also integrate with CAD software to generate assemblies, though this is considered a bonus feature. The work will involve system design, data structuring, user interface considerations, and potential CAD integration strategies to support a scalable and user-friendly solution.
