define quality control
methods used to regulate products so they are all manufactured to exactly the same pre-determined standard
per-determined standard
all the same standard that is regulated - may be good may be not good quality.
achieving the expected standard
quality management
is the goal to increase customer value and satisfaction by streamlining all system processes and eliminating waste at all stages of there production process.
what is the 6 steps in the product design process pc r p&p p&d cu e&m
product concept research planning and prototyping production and distribution retail and consumer use evaluation and modification
what is obsolesce
obsolesce is when a product becomes no longer useful or out of date or is replaced by a newer and better product
what are the types of obsolesce
f
t
s
functional
technical
style
what is functional obsolesce
manufacturers choose
lower-quality materials and processes knowing the
product will be less durable - likely cost
what is technical obsolesce
a new technology or
design feature/function is developed.
what is style obsolesce
changing nature of trends
and fashions, including appearance and style.
how does planned obsolesce influence the design
this will be things such as the materials and their cost, the durability of these materials.
what are the benefits of planned obsolesce
products are cheap and easily replaced this means that products are economically beneficial to manufacturers and retailers. this will overall increase the employment and wealth of the community.
what are the problems of planned obsolesce
the products done last and are difficult or not able to be repaired and the producer needs to constantly invest attention o the production development process to create new or similar modified products.
what is the goal of research and development
csiro
the main goal is for companies to invest in
research to remain competitive and the government in Australia supports businesses with through direct funding f organisations such as CSIRO
when does research and development happen
research and development happens when the company is bringing out a new or their first product to design and develop a unique product that is not copyrighted
what types of research and development and who can facilitate
CSIRO can facilitate in the
what is the importance of design and innovation
design and innovation give the product a competitive edge as companies will employ more quality designers to give the product a unique qualities
what are new and emerging technologies CAD CNC R LT CAM
computer aided design computer numerical control robotics lazer cut technology computer aided manufacture
how and when is new and emerging technology used
computer aded design is used in the design and modification design stages of the product. robotics and laser cutting is more the manufacturing stages of the product
what is lean manufacturing
+ aim
is a systematic method of waste minimisation within a manufacturing production system without sacrificing productivity. it takes into account the waste created throughout the production and aims to reduce waste
what are some lean manufacturing strategies
streamlined and mechanised to reduce labour
the materials used is maximised - reduced waste
limited storage of materials
the environmental benefits of lean manufacturing
less waste is deposited into the environment
list manufacturing systems
one off
low volume
hight volume - mass produced
continuous production
list all the sustainability frameworks
LCA - life cycle analysis
C2C - cradle to cradle
DFD - design for disassembly
EPR - extended producer responsibility
what is market research
the gathering and analysing of data about markets and
consumers. it focuses on the needs and desires of endusers and consumers.
how does market research influence the product design factors
it helps determine the target audience - which is information on the age, gender, socioeconomic status, interests, purchasing behaviour and aesthetics.
what is marketing
marketing is the action undertaken to promote or sell a product t through things like advertising
