Inspect the resulting prototype

The “Inspect the resulting prototype” task must an evaluation of the prototype functioning

  1. Designer, Manufacturer
  2. Smartification specialists, hardware specialists
  3. Designer
  4. User/Consumer/Customer
add
- Physical piece - Functional prototype - Printed part, Original technical requirements add - List of defects - Tests results - Technical results - Evaluation output - Desicion on acceptance or not of the part add - (Mature) - (None) - (Mature) - (Mature) add - (Mature) - (Mature) - (Mature) add - The manufacturer and the designer will inspect the piece to detect possible defects in the manufacturing process and/or inherited from the design phase - Tests of the functions and operations of the functional prototype - Machine operations - Communication / reporting of results - Analysis of failures add
Determine corrective actions

The “Determine corrective actions” task must improve the prototype

  1. Designer, Manufacturer
  2. Smartification specialists, hardware specialists
  3. 3D printing Technical staff
add
- List of defects - Tests results - CAD Model, - (Same or New) waste feedstock available add - List of corrective actions (surface treatment, machining, etc.) - Formalization of corrective actions and re-iteration of the prototype launch - New printed part - Additives to improve material's quality add - (Mature) - (Mature) - (Emerging) add - (Mature) - (Emerging) - (Emerging) add - Given the list of defects, the manufacturer and the designer will apply the corrective actions needed for the manufacturing process and/or the design (to built again the prototype), or corrective actions when defects are minor and prototype is still functional) - If the tests results fail to meet the designed constraints then the failure report is used to improve and re-iterate the prototyping elaboration and/or modeling. Depending on the type of the detected failure (conceptual, functional, or implementation (from SW developed - Redesign component by form, material or process add
