Components in Products
Some products are a single components (nail, bolt, fork, coat hanger, etc.) Some products are assemblies of many components (ball point pens, automobiles, washing machines, etc.) All components are manufactured. Manufacturing means, literally, Made by Hand.

Materials Selection for Paper Clips

Questions for consideration: What material properties are required? What manufacturing attributes are required? Would the material and processing strategy change if the desired quantity was 10,000 vs. 1 million per day?
Figure I.2 Examples of the wide variety of materials and geometries for paper clips.

Product Design Process

Figure I.4 (a) Chart showing the various steps involved in design and manufacturing a product. Depending on the complexity of the product and the type of materials used, the time span between the original concept and the marketing of the product may range from a few months to many years. (b) Chart showing general product flow in concurrent engineering, from market analysis to selling the product. Source: After S. Pugh, Total Design. Addison-Wesley, 1991.
