, Manufacturing
is a process for converting ideas and market or customer needs into
artifacts; includes design, procurement, test, finance, human resources, marketing, etc.
Manufacturing is the conversion of raw materials into useful products
n Creating shapes by various means and assembling these shapes into a useful
product. A physical product always has a shape
Function
Aesthetics
n These shapes are created by a wide variety of processes
n Products must meet specifications, design requirements, & regulatory standards.
n Product must be economic and environmentally friendly.
n Quality must be built into the design.
n Methods must be flexible.
n Manufacturers must listen to customer feedback.
n Productivity must be constantly improved.
