Cards in this deck (10)
- 1what is modelling?just making practise versions of your design, or parts of your design (its a good why to spot/solve problems)
- 2what could you use when modelling?using materials that are quick and easy to work with e.g. cardboard, high density polystyrene foam
also cause use construction kits (which have different sized and shaped parts for you to build with) - 3what can you use to help with the modelling process, explain each?CAD/CAM
can make virtual models (in 3D) using CAD
can use CAD/CAM to do rapid prototyping - you draw the design in CAD and use a 3D printer to produce the model - 4after making the first model what needs to be done?needs to be tested
- 5if there is a problem with the model what are the next procedures?write down what the problem is and suggest how to fix it, record how the design develops, also evaluate each model against the design specification (might have to modify your specification after evaluating your models)
- 6so what is the process summarised?make model > test and evaluate > come up with idea to improve the product
- 7what will asking people their opinions on your models do?i will help you refine your ideas so you can arrive at the best solution
- 8what sort of questions could you ask people abut your model?easy to use?
are you unsure about any features, if so what ones and why?
is it the right size?
how much will you be wiling to pay? - 9one you have finished developing your ideas and have a final design you should have worked out? (4)best materials to use (and they availability) might include standard components
approximate manufacturing time needed to make each item
how much should cost to manufacture each item
the assembly process (important when it comes to planning production) - 10after your initial sketches why is it good to try out more detailed drawings next?helps you see what will actually work in practise and it might help you decide on details you hadn't thought about before (e.g. size or positions of components or how parts should be constructed and fitted together)
