Product Design and Process – An Insight

M. Vennila, A. Anu Radha

Abstract :

Product design and process development is a vital part of the product development project, combining product, process, market and consumer research. These multi-disciplinary activities are completely interconnected and form a highly creative part of the project. The knowledge base is very wide, although sometimes there is little depth to parts of it. With the introduction of computers and the greater basic knowledge becoming available, it is now developing into a technological process with a strong consumer base element. Consumers are an integral part of product design, and are included in the testing of the prototype products. At the end of product design, a factual feasibility study has to be produced from this mass of information. Therefore, product design needs to be systematically planned and controlled, while still allowing space for creative behaviour. Three test factors in product design are consumer acceptability, technical feasibility and costs; these must be considered at all stages of the design.
