Rapid Product Designing & Rapid Prototyping – Advantages

Rapid Product Designing

Rapid product designing and product development, both have come a long way today. Traditionally, rapid product designing was hand drawn. Now, Rapid Product Designing are creating detailed, clear product designs using special-purpose computer applications, like Dassault Systèmes’ 3D EXPERIENCE 2016, SOLIDWORKS, and 3DVIA among many others. For rapid product designing, specifically the product prototype development, engineers nowadays are utilizing revolutionary additive manufacturing (popularly known as 3D printing) processes, which include selective laser melting, fused filament fabrication, direct metal laser sintering, and stereo lithography to name a few.

These modern rapid product designing and rapid product prototyping techniques are geared toward the swift, precise, and effortless development of new products. More importantly, with these state-of-the-art techniques, it is possible to minimize the cost of new rapid product designing and development! Let us look at some of the advantages that these computer-assisted 3D rapid product designing and 3D printing techniques offer.

1. These contemporary techniques radically minimize the time of turning a product concept into reality. Simple product concepts can be brought to life in a matter of days, and complex product concepts in a matter of a few months. Therefore, inventors can quickly realize their dreams of swiftly getting groundbreaking products into the market and selling them to make profits.
2. These techniques help save money. Creating product designs using computer applications means getting definitive designs with a minimum number of attempts; hence, it avoids the redundant costs of creating multiple product designs. 3D printing, on the other hand, eliminates the need for plastic product manufacturing tools or other molding tools needed for building product prototypes. This elimination of tools substantially saves money for the inventors.
3. The modern techniques help mitigate product redesigning risks. Since the product designs are created virtually on the computer, they are, in most instances, ideal in every manner. Even if they are not, or if any changes are required, the product designers can quickly and effortlessly modify or change the product designs. These new product designs are then efficiently and economically 3D printed, saving time, money, and more importantly, the efforts of doing everything from scratch for the inventors.
4. The techniques facilitate in the creation of the definitive product. Because 3D product designing is carried out virtually, using special computer applications, the chances of leaving out any product construction requirements are almost next to nothing. In the virtual world, the product designers and product developers can test almost every aspect of the conceived product. This way, they can add, remove, and experiment with the various features of the imagined product without actually creating any mockup or prototype!
5. These techniques allow quick creation of product prototypes. Once the product designs are ready, they will be fed to a 3D printer (it’s a kind of an industrial robot). The 3D printer is then configured according to the required specifications. Once the 3D printer is configured, it will then extrude material into the desired shapes. The entire process, from feeding the product design into the 3D printer to the extrusion of the material into the desired shapes, is substantially swifter than injection molding techniques.
6. These breakthrough techniques enable the creation of custom shapes. The 3D printer extrudes the material into desired shapes or geometries based on the instructions received from a computer. In simpler words, a 3D printer prints a material, instead of ink, based on the design it is provided. Ergo, it is possible to create custom, intriguing shapes effortlessly. This advantage of these techniques is very beneficial when it comes to medical device product development as well as electromechanical product development.
7. These techniques make it possible to develop product prototypes using any material. Not only polymer and its variants, but 3D printers are capable of accepting and printing materials like rubber, ceramic, edible materials, and almost any metal alloy!

These were just some of the many advantages that rapid product designing and rapid product prototyping techniques offer. They are just ideal for new product design and new product development, especially product prototype development.
