Fig 1. A fixture setup for control measuring. of holders connected to a frame (see figure 1). The positioning of the holders is relative to readily defined reference points on the automotive body component, which are positioned so it is possible to quickly measure at a set of defined control points. By using these fixture setups, it is possible to accelerate the number of measures that can be made.

Fig 2. Expanded version of design process paradox, adapted from Ullman [1] and Verhagen et al. [2]. The design process paradox [1], see expanded version in figure 2, captures, albeit coarsely, the notion of a catch-22 in design process-terms.

Fig 4. KBE lifecycle, adapted from [4]- accentuating its focus on primarily knowledge capture and formalization. From a knowledge perspective, KBE is motivated and supported by the application of a knowledge lifecycle [4], see figure 4. The knowledge lifecycle is devised to support the identification, justification, capture, formalization, packaging and activation of knowledge-support solutions on specific design activities or entities.

Knowledge re-use in a guided KBE framework can help save time, and thus either reach markets quicker or to allow the engineers to do more iterations of the same design tasks in the same amount of time, or both. See figure 5. Similarly, KBE can be used also to support mass-customization [7], where use of knowledge sources to drive variation of product features allows designers to create variant designs with little additional work effort.

Fig 6. The process steps that is performed. The structure of the product, as outlined from a design automation perspective is presented in figure 7. Here the fixture setup will comprise of the customer product, a holder, which is an assembly that can be retrofitted with a spacer, and then finally the frame. In reality there are some more components and small parts, but from a modelling perspective these are as interesting as a bolt or a nut.
