• In this modern world, we all use products that
  operate either manually or electronically to make
  us comfortable. All these products have their own
  product design and are manufactured accordingly.
  MIT Academy of Engineering (or MITAOE) is one of
  the top engineering colleges in Pune. The college
  has a school of design offering the best product
  design courses in India.

What is Product Design?

• People dont recognize the perks and advantages
  of designing courses, including the hassle-free
  experience of learning through online courses.
  Most of tProduct design, also known as industrial
  design, deals with defining product
  functionality, usability, ergonomics, and
  aesthetics or external appearances. Product
  engineering for easy manufacturing and product
  optimization is done through careful detailing.
  Product designers also need to keep the product's
  costs in control.

• There are three core types of design when it
  comes to product design. They are
• System Design.
• Process Design.
• Interface Design.
• he work in these courses can be finished
  digitally. While enrolling in online design
  courses, all you need is a laptop and a pen
  tablet to design and bring your imagination to
  life.

Some essential factors of product design

• Before manufacturing, each product manufacturer
  would go through a lot of considerations. They
  need to ensure some essential factors of product
  design before beginning sales. These are listed
  as follows
• 1. Fitness for Purpose
• Every product is designed for a unique purpose.
  Before creating a product, the designer must know
  the product's demand and what the customers
  require from the product. They should design the
  product with newer features that are essential
  and desirable.

2. Materials and Finish

• Before manufacturing a product, the designer must
  decide the material to be used. The designer must
  ensure that their choices are compatible with
  each other. Since the materials used in their
  products also define its quality and guarantee,
  the designer must have perfect knowledge about
  the product's materials.

3. Maintenance

• Most of the designers concentrate more on
  functions and aesthetics, and forget about
  maintenance. Proper maintenance can prolong the
  longevity of the product. Using durable materials
  for easy maintenance adds to the overall cost of
  the product. But this cost can be justified.

• 4. Efficiency
• The efficiency of a product depends directly on
  the quality of the product. Product designers
  must design their products to ensure complete
  customer satisfaction. Only then will the product
  be in greater demand.
• 5. Cost Ratio
• Designers are trained to design a cost-efficient
  and higher quality product that will attract more
  consumers. While designing a complementary
  product, the designer must consider the primary
  product's price and make their plans accordingly.

6. Fashion

• Designers must know how to design their products
  according to the ever-changing trending styles
  around them. The consumer usually makes
  purchasing decisions, according to the trend, and
  old styles are becoming obsolete faster.
• 7. Safety Measures
• The designer must ensure that the products they
  design are safe to use. Quality products will
  have certificates such as BSI, ISO, and others.
  Designers must create their products according to
  the regulations of these organizations. Gaining
  these certificates validates the product's
  quality and tempts the general public to buy and
  use these products rather than your competitor's
  products.

8. Aesthetics

• Aesthetics is the final and most crucial factor
  that needs to be considered in product design.
  Customers have their own aesthetics, and they
  purchase products guided by this sense. Even when
  the product quality is less than other products
  of the same cost, consumers will recommend buying
  a product because of its aesthetics.
