Abstract
The use of parametric design has become increasingly important across various design fields, particularly in product design. In today's highly competitive market, a successful product model can significantly increase a product's added value and competitiveness. By using parametric design to create a series of products based on market research and user needs, designers can selectively develop variable products from basic ones and determine the specific application specifications for elements such as shape, structure, texture, color, and materials. This approach can help to embody the unique features of the sequential design in each product, resulting in a more successful product line overall
By utilizing a flexible production mode, product sequencing can effectively reduce design and production costs, while enhancing R&D capabilities and production efficiency. Furthermore, this approach enables businesses to develop new products with greater flexibility and sustain the long-term vitality of their production lines, meeting the diverse needs of their customers. Additionally, product serialization serves as a unique design strategy that enhances a company's image and expands its brand influence, ultimately improving product recognizability and appealing to consumers on a deeper level.
In modern times, the development of commercial products requires the collaboration of various specialized functions within multidisciplinary processes. These processes are crucial in bringing new products to life, from conception to production. For instance, the automotive industry's product development process encompasses a range of disciplines, including design, marketing, engineering, and manufacturing. Each of these disciplines has its unique interests and constraints, which must be taken into account to ensure the timely and successful creation of a commercially viable product that meets customer expectations.
Parametric design simplifies the prototype development process by allowing designers to test and hypothesize solutions in real time. These steps lead to a more accurate final model, which in turn enhances customer evaluation. Parametric design breaks away from the traditional mold of engineering and manufacturing, quite literally.
Parametric design represents the epitome of personalized design. At its core, it imbues a variety of products - from sporting goods to consumer electronics - with a design edge. But when maximized, it has the power to completely transform the structure of things and, in doing so, fundamentally alter their purpose. Ultimately, the goal is to create products that people truly desire. As manufacturing and business models increasingly shift towards mass customization, parametric design is poised to be a powerful catalyst for change.
