Product Development Of License Plate Holder : In Collaboration With Koenigsegg Automotive AB

Abstract: This report is being conducted in collaboration with Koenigsegg Automotive AB, a company founded in 1994 that manufactures mega cars. This study aims to design a license plate holder for their new car Jesko that comes in two models, Absolut and Track. The license plate holder is to be adapted to a specific country and their regulatory framework. The project also involves selecting materials and manufacturing processes in consultation with the industrial partner. The work has been divided into different stages, calculations, CAD modeling, analysis, and selection of materials and manufacturing processes. The CAD modeling is performed using Catia V5, while the analyses are conducted using SimSolid. The methodology used in this project is inspired by the method outlined in the book "Product Design and Development" by Karl T. Ulrich, Steven D. Eppinger, and Maria C. Yang. The method consists of six main steps: planning, research, customer needs, concept generation, concept selection, and detailed design. The result chose six different concepts being developed, analyzed, and compared. After identifying the most suitable concept, it is presented with a detailed product description of its design, materials, and manufacturing methods.
