The engineering design process is used to develop new products, processes, or systems. It is a series of steps that engineers follow to come up with a solution to a problem which includes
- Opportunity identification
- What are customer needs?
- Specifying requirements
- Brainstorm and Ideate
- Generate solutions
- Prototype and Test
- Implement
It is a very important concept within the larger skillset of mechanical design engineering. Understanding and imbibing the process provides engineers with a structured problem solving approach and a holistic thinking mindset working from concept to implementation
