Description
This teaching unit is linked to the innovative project. With the participation of a product designer, students must be able to introduce design very early on in the product development process.
Functional studies of the product's skin are based on foam models and/or 3D printed models. After validation, the functional prototype is manufactured using the resources available in the mechanical engineering department (conventional manufacturing, NC and 3D printing).
The prototype is validated during a project review called "functional prototype qualification".
Objectives
Measure the consequences of integrating product design into the early stages of design
Design a working prototype of the innovative product
Conduct a project review to qualify a functional prototype
Necessary prerequisites
