INTRODUCTION
Product design is the first step
immediately after accepting the
concept of product.
The purpose of product design and
analysis is to determine and specify
products that will be profitable to
manufactures and distributors and
will give human satisfaction.
1. CONCEPTION
The specifications of the proposed product
must be prepared by marketing department
as much details as possible .Ex.
1. The performance requirements
2. The appearance or styling requirements
3. The estimated quantity to be sold
4. The max. price within which the product is
sold
5. The date of introduction of the product.
2. ACCEPTANCE
In this stage , the design activity of
the product begins after the
feasibility analysis and model making
and calculations of the product is
accepted.
3. EXECUTION
A model is prepared in this stage
which is going to reveal the detail
aspect of proposed designs and
special considerations.
The cost of the product is built at
this stage which the production
engineers always try to stick to it.
Now the advanced techniques like
Rapid Prototyping Technique(RPT)
and Experimental stress analysis
techniques are available for
4. TRANSLATION
At this stage the production
engineering department is involved
in design work.
The manufacturing feasibility is
tested at this stage.
The final manufacturing drawing are
prepared.
5. PRE-PRODUCTION
This will consist of completely
assembling quantity of production
from parts which will be found in the
final manufacture.
Pre-Production stage will check the
following:
I. Drawing
II. Final Tools
III. Production techniques and
estimates
Marketing Aspects
Functional Aspects
Operational Aspects
Durability & Dependability
Aesthetic Aspects
Economic Analysis
1.MARKETING ASPECTS
It is very important to know the
marketability of the product.
Thus marketing aspect which analyses
the factors that affect the demand for
the product is an important step.
2. FUNCTIONAL ASPECTS
3. OPERATIONAL ASPECTS
The operational aspects becomes all
the important as it is the customer
who is going to operate at his place
and care should be taken to see that
the product have ease of operation.
The designer has to analyze the
preparation time, operation time and
put away time with respect to the
customer.
5. AESTHETIC ASPECTS
It refers to the external good look
aspect of the product.
Aesthetic aspects help the sell function
of the product of the product by
attracting the customers and creating
the first impression about the product.
For customer goods aesthetics is the
dominant factor in creating demand for
the product.
6. ECONOMIC ANALYSIS
An economic analysis is the key to the
management decision in product design
policy.
Once the sufficient information on the
marketability of the product is obtained
and various aspect of the product like
functional, operational and aesthetic are
studied about the proposed product.
Manufacturing cost is calculated. After
adding profit margin sales price is decided
by company.
PRODUCT DEVELOPMENT
The creation of products with new or
different characteristics that offer
new or additional benefits to the
customer.
Product development may involve
modification of an existing product or
its presentation or formulation of an
entirely new product that satisfies a
newly defined customer want or
market niche.
STANDARDIZATION
Standardization is a process of
defining and applying the conditions
necessary to ensure that given range
of requirements can normally be met
with a minimum of variety and
economic manner on basis of the
best current technique.
ADVANTAGES
Reduction in inventory
Reduction of waste and obsolescence
Ease in procurement
Reduced effort in book keeping and
accounting
Increased margin of profit
Reduction in maintenance and repair
cost
APPLICATION
Finished products e.g. cars and T.V.
Sub assemblies and components e.g.
automobile gear boxes and auto
electric bulbs
Material e.g. both direct materials
(plain carbon and alloy steel) and
indirect materials such as oils and
greases.
Production equipments e.g. machine
tools, press , welding equipments
SIMPLIFICATION
Simplification means elimination of
superfluous varieties, sizes etc.
It means reduction the number of
varieties.
It is not able to meet the needs of
wide range of customer preferences
is its limitation.
ADVANTAGES
Reduction of buying/selling effort due
to less variety.
Reduced inventory
Greater use of storage space and
better plant utilization.
