- Planning for accuracy and efficiency
- Ensuring accuracy of prototype designs
- accuracy in prototype depends on UCD approach
- client feedback
- QA to ensure accuracy- CAD simulations, working drawings with tolerances, mock-up models, client feedback and peer review
- during product production QC checks ensure accuracy
- QC checks include visual aesthetic checks, appropriate dimension checks, machine alignment checks, assembly checks and quality checks of manufactured finish
- testing for accuracy governed by a cost analysis to ensure profitability
- Ensuring accuracy in types of production
- CAD including process stimulations and costings
- working drawings with tolerances
- sample prototypes
- templates, jigs and fixtures produced
- focus groups and surveys
- Non-destructive and destructive testing
- Specific checks will depend on the product
- machine aligning callibrations
- tooling replacement
- accurate prototype production requires effective research and development
- development of design must allow specification to be tested prior to final production
- successful manufacture of a product requires a clear schedule of production with deadlines and QC checks
- Ensuring accuracy of prototype designs
