What is Engineering?
Engineering is the application of scientific principles to design and build structures, systems, and processes to solve real world problems. Engineering plays a crucial role in designing and creating efficient, safe, and functional workshop equipment to enhance productivity and support various tasks.
The Engineering Process in Workshop Product Design
- Problem identification: Identifying the specific needs and requirements of users and the tasks to be performed
- Research & Analysis: Gathering data on ergonomic standards, material properties and user preferences to inform the design process
- Design: Creating detailed plans and prototypes for the workbench, considering factors such as size, shape, adjustability, storage options, and accessory integration.
- Implementation: Building and testing the product and ensuring functionality, durability and user satisfaction.
- Evaluation: Soliciting feedback from users and making iterative improvements to the design based on real-world usage and performance
