The Mechatronic Design Model

The Mechatronic Design Model

1. Why to use this model?

   • In order to improve the quality of engenieering projects
   • Have a unique and multidisciplinary methodology that applies to all the engineering areas and design projects

2. Based on the systematic and concurrent engineering vision and the project management discipline

3. Basic Steps

   • 1st Step
     • training and assimilation of creative phase techniques
     • allows the design team to generate innovative ideas in order to develop a product that is able to satisfy the customer’s needs
     • seeks for new approaches at problem solving
     • Statistical engineering is also used to evaluate the design problems quantitatively and guarantee the quality in the design
   • 2nd Step
     • application of technical and engineering tools through the creation of the product by considering the distinct areas that integrate a multidisciplinary project
     • Use of Statistical Methods
       • Linear Regression
       • Design of Experiments
       • creates a robust design and product with the minimal risk exposure
     • allows the designer to identify key problems in the project performance by evaluating different points of failure
   • 3rd Step
     • manufacture of the final design or prototype
     • apply their knowledge from previous courses in order to develop a quality project

4. Based on Industrial engineering techniques
