Methodology for 3D-Printed Part Design

1. Is there an existing demand?

  If No, then determine why the part should be created.
  If yes, continue to next step.

2. Is there an existing offering?

  If No, then determine why there is not an existing offering.
  If Yes, continue to next step.

3. Model existing part or prototype.

4. Quantify necessary mechanical properties, standards, and loads for part.

5. Prioritize necessary mechanical properties, standards, and loads for part.

6. Run Finite Element Analysis (FEA) with material properties in simulation to determine upper bound.
