Accelerate Your Product Design Process

Two companies reduced time-to-data in their product design process by 50% and 70%. You can increase your organization’s agility in product development and reduce costly risk factors by embracing FARO 3D measurement software and hardware solutions.
Product Design Process Guide

Accelerate your product design process with 3D measurement solutions, closing the gap between your prototype, replacement part, packaging design or aftermarket development and the computer model by 50%, 70% or more. With FARO® 3D measurement equipment, you’ll dramatically reduce the time it takes to turn your ideas into designs that can easily be produced and sent to market.

Download this guide to learn about the data-driven software and hardware solutions that can help you:

  • Keep your company away from expensive design headaches and reduce material waste throughout the product design process.
  • Interpret manufacturing data easily to make fast, informed decisions.
  • Scan shiny black parts and objects, plus gain measurement access to locations that are out of line-of-sight.
  • Reverse engineer both legacy and prototype parts to keep your operations running at full capacity.
  • Speed up the project’s schedules and timelines, allowing your company to win more business downstream by increasing time to market and end-user satisfaction.

How to Iterate, Design, Optimize and Build Quicker than Ever Before

Rapidly changing technology, increased competition and shorter development cycles mean that research and development disciplines have to be agile, fast and accurate in order to deliver crucial design data. Here’s how 3D measurement technology compares to the older, traditional methods.

 

 

With Traditional Methods


With FARO® 3D Technology


Product Design Process Workflow 1

Build a physical prototype, test it — and then manually transfer your learnings and measurement data back to the digital design.

Product Design Process Workflow 5

Scan the 3D printed prototype after testing so that it’s instantly back in the digital design.

Product Design Process Workflow 2

After a part or machine break, contact the OEM to order a legacy replacement part and wait for it to arrive before getting your operations or prototype process back up and running.

Product Design Process Workflow 2

Reverse engineer both legacy and prototype parts to keep your operations running at full capacity, without relying so heavily on external supply chain factors.

Product Design Process Workflow 3

Take two days to scan one car that consists of black parts, using non-FARO tools.

Product Design Process Workflow 3

Use FARO 3D measurement equipment to scan the same car with black parts in half the time.

Product Design Process Workflow 4

Spend lots of time, energy and money in product design only to "fail late" and realize your team needs to start over again — causing massive delays and slowdowns.

Product Design Process Workflow 4

Test early and "fail fast", using 3D measurement tools to reduce wasted company resources and time — and speed up your product’s time-to-market.

With FARO® 3D measurement solutions, you’ll dramatically reduce the time it takes to turn your ideas into designs that can easily be produced and sent to market. Read the complete process guide to learn more about FARO 3D measurement solutions for product design.

With the old workflow, it took about 80 hours in total to get to a prototype that properly fit the vehicle — not to mention building five prototype bumpers before we got one right. Now, with the scans as a basis for creating the 3D models, I can do that same thing in about 24 hours.
