Here is a simple way to think about the process of moving an idea prototype to manufactured product design from the perspective of a designer. I'll give you 2 thinking tools that will help no matter what product you are designing and illustrate how these work with the example of the OXO peeler designed by Smart Design.
I have a free workbook for anyone interested in learning more about "the Ingredients" in products and how to discover them for yourself :

If opinions are divided r.e. the best way to use your product, how do you determine which direction to follow/what problems to solve? Sometimes they’re mutually exclusive. Bad analogy: We’re all human, but we may prefer to put the toilet paper on the holder in the opposing orientation! The ideal would be to solve for both, obviously!!

How do you find quality industrial designers when Fiverr simply doesnt cut it?

@DesignplusMorna 2 года назад

@@adamharris5003 Look up the Professional Industrial Design Association in your country. They will typically have a section on their website promoting their members. Where I am in Canada, I belong to ACIDO. (acido.info) Professional associations work differently in different countries. ACIDO is an accredited association so all professional members have vetted/approved by their peers. Professional associations work differently in different countries. In the US, the association to look for is called IDSA. IDSA works a bit differently as it's not accredited and anyone can become a member. However, last time I checked membership to IDSA is not cheap so there is a better chance of discovering quality designers as the cost of entry is higher.

@adamharris5003 2 года назад

@@DesignplusMorna Thank you so much for your reply, I will look into the IDSA. It's especially harder because my product involves electrical technology and while Fiverr might work for simpler structures, I've had no luck so far. Again, thank you for your help.

Hi. im glad i stumbled upon this video . going through similar challenges with no experience whatsoever around this process (and a mountain of fears and apprehensions!) this was a very well explained and confidence boosting video that tells me that i am somewhat on the right path. thank you again for having posted this and having explained it in such an accessible way.

@broccolihart1 Год назад

I, like a few others down here in the comments section found your video through a few attempts at finding what EXACTLY I was looking for and am glad I did. This process is already tough to explain when a male does it but, having a beautiful, feminine, soft spoken lady such as yourself really made it palatable and comfortable for this ego driven male. I will definitely check out more of your vids if they are relative. Thank you !

Even oversimplifying things is tough to achieve, cool video and thank you for the simplified explanation, Can you make a video on designing products for people in fields where a designer has no experience of it, how to approach such a design and what would be the process?

@avimehenwal 4 года назад

Wow ... now this called a video :) Thanks for sharing, its amazing

@DesignplusMorna 4 года назад

You are welcome!!

@pangelingua8547 3 года назад

This is great, Morna! I’m designing products on the side and stumbled onto your channel. I’ve been approaching product design (problem-solving) in just the way you describe, purely through my own lack of education and know-how. I approach everything by analogy and broad searches. This video makes me want to become more methodical in this approach, rather than trying to wean myself from it, as I learn. Yay, three cheers for the poet of ignorance!!😂

@geezeuspoker Год назад

So many ways....but honesty and the passion of sharing free samples or being an intern with a one way ticket and advertise your intended prototype that will help humanity and knock on thousands of doors and stick with it even against all odds and bypass regulations like Henry Ford did and then some and the grain of mustard seed will start to blossom like magic.

It is about design process & design management in which creativity time costs and quality must go together. However, design must use creativity to improve the final product helping engineers to be more open and creative to push the final design being cost efficient. Nice video 👍👍

Thanks for sharing that, Luciano. All the best, Morna.

What about NDAs and Non-Competes for the prototyping companies? One company agreed to the NDA but not the non compete? Can this affect me without the non-compete IF i have a provisional patent?

@trexinvert 3 года назад

Morna, DFM = modify the part so it's "easy" to make for that specific process. Injection molding process 'likes" drafted sidewalls and no/minimal "undercut" features for simple tooling. CNC operation likes straight side, flat surfaces, rectangular shape, fillet edges/corners, holes that go all the way through the material. Composite layup parts like round, long, continuously curved parts. When the geometry of the "inventors mind" is turned into actual dimensioned lines and shapes, it will "tell you" how it can be best made. However, "never compromise" the inventors original DFC = designed for the inventors concept. The DFM process is the "reduction/minimizing/compromising" the inventors original vision for the sake of high speed mass production.

Where do you make a prototype?

@trexinvert 3 года назад

I see "flashes" of your solid modeling. Don't tell me you don't "add draft" when you extrude solids for plastic parts? Or, core out/hollow out thick sections and add ribs?

The thing that people want to know is cost. Almost impossible to find any good info about that. How much would it cost to make a vegetable peeler???

@DesignplusMorna 2 года назад

There is a reason why there is no information like that. It's like asking how much will it cost to renovate my house if you've never seen my house and don't know what work I want done. It is impossible to quote without knowing the specifics like what is the design of the vegetable peeler, quantities - how many are you making, what materials are being used, who is making it/ what is their quote, Manufacturing process and/or assembly - how long does it take for it to be made, etc

@trexinvert 3 года назад

No offense you "industrial engineers" are so hands-on-phobic. All you need to do is pick up a phone and call 4 people. A machine shop, sheet metal shop, weld shop and plastic shop/mfg(both injection molded parts and composite layups). Show them the inventors sketch. Don't want to make calls? Show the sketch to a competent, experienced mechanical engineer or machinist or assembly tech. They can guess right away what process you will end up for the inventor.

@DesignplusMorna 3 года назад

Hi, I'm curious how you arrived at the conclusion that my profession is "hands-on-phobic". Just to clarify, I'm an Industrial Designer (not an engineer). Testing our designs with physical prototypes is an essential part of the product development process. It's also an iterative process so it happens more than once. Being hands-on is very, very important. Thanks for making this comment though. Your suggestion of picking up the phone and speaking to people who manufacture things is an excellent one. This video is geared towards less experienced Industrial designers who may be intimidated speaking with machine shops. Encouraging them to reach out to manufacturers and people who make things to have conversations is a great suggestion. The purpose of this video, however, was to discuss one aspect of the design process in a very specific way and is not reflective of the whole process. This video is also not about DFM specifically as I mentioned at the beginning. So no, I don't talk about draft, wall thickness, ribs, etc... It's a huge topic.

Worthless video if you cannot supply a means of finding a manufacturer. This is all common sense and a waste of breath. Where is the beef? Give me the names of prototype manufacturers!!!
