Customization design of vamp mold is an important step in the process of designing and developing vamp mold products. Because product and mold design are interdependent, it is very useful for product design engineers and mold design engineers to understand the role of the development process of plastic parts, mold design process and mold manufacturing process.
The product development process of vamp mold customization goes through different stages, including: product definition, product design, experience and product development, increase capacity, launch.
Although product development processes are complex, most have the following key attributes:
Establish a systematic development plan to ensure design and manufacturing completeness.
Establish level flow to avoid risk by effectively estimating budget allocations at key points in the project.
The product development process is divided into phases through the approval fee level. The next phase evaluates the previous phase.
1. Definition of vamp mold customization products
The product development process begins with an analysis of the market, an understanding of competitors’ product standards, a definition of product specifications, and an evaluation of potential profitability. If management agrees to develop a new product, an appropriate team will be formed for early concept design and business development. At one stage, you need to estimate the approximate size, attributes, and cost of the product. At the same time, concept sketches, physical prototypes, and prototypes may be discussed and evaluated for feasibility.
In terms of profitability, market research will attempt to predict potential sales at different price points in the early stages of product development. At the same time, a budget will be established for the labor costs and project costs required to develop the product and bring it to market.
Vamp mold customization is evaluated by management on concept design, anchor sale expectations and budget by constantly evaluating the likelihood of commercial success in product development. Proposed product development projects may be rejected, shelved, or modified accordingly.
2. Design vamp mold customized products
If the project is approved and a budget is allocated, the product development process continues, usually with additional funding followed by further analysis and design. In the second stage, each component of the product is designed in detail.
The design of plastic parts includes considerations of aesthetics, structure, heating, manufacturing, etc. The design of the manufacturing method will be used to confirm the problem of efficient manufacturing of the parts. The assembly method can be designed to reduce components, determine tolerances for key dimensions and ensure the economy of assembly of the finished product.
The design result of the initial product design phase (through the second management proposal) is a detailed and proven product design.
“Detailed design” means that each part will be specified with materials, geometry, surface roughness, tolerances, suppliers and costs. If custom plastic parts are required, then these parts need to be quoted at this stage. Manufacturing costs and detailed designs are submitted to management for approval.
If product design and cost are acceptable, then the required budget is allocated and product development is mainly focused on manufacturing.
3. Development of vamp mold customization business and production
Although mold design and mold manufacturing are the focus of the plastics industry, they are all included in the “mold Making” activity. At the same time, important business development and production planning will be carried out.
Specifically, business development needs to fully define the supply chain and establish initial orders to support the launch of the product. Production planning is required for the layout of assembly lines, delivery of human resource requirements, and establishment of manufacturing technical facilities.
When the mold is completed, the product will be manufactured, tested and assembled. The product then goes through a series of tests to verify its level of performance, performance standards, and user satisfaction. If the initial product is not satisfactory, the manufacturing process, associated tools and detailed component design should be adjusted appropriately. At the same time, the operator will carry out detailed juice marking for quality control.
