Redesign of a tangible product You are asked to select a manufactured good (not a service) and redesign the good or some part of it. The redesign should be your redesign; do not simply describe how some product was redesigned by a company or compare one product in the market with another. You are to improve the design by using at least one of the following design principles: 1. Reduce the number of parts/components 2. Use common components (those used elsewhere in the product or in other products made by the same company) 3. Use standard components (those that are available widely to any purchaser) 4. Redesign to simplify the fabrication or assembly process 5. Use modular design. Your objective is to either: 1. Improve the quality of the product without increasing the cost of making it, or 2. Reduce the cost of making the product without lowering the quality. Note: It is not acceptable to redesign it to improve its quality by increasing the cost of making it. Also, it is important to think about the impact of your product design changes from the perspective of all potential customers; a change that would be attractive to some customers, but makes the product less desirable to others, is considered to be a reduction in quality. In your write-up you should: 1. Describe the original product (a photo or drawing of the item would be helpful) 2. Clearly describe the change(s) you would make (a drawing would be helpful) 3. Clearly state which of the above principles you used and how you used it/them to improve the design. 4. Justify your new design; i.e., explain how it improves quality without increasing cost or how it reduces production cost without hurting quality.
