OSE Specifications for Product Design

To assess the technological design features of OSE Specifications, these are the most important:

1. Lifetime Design. Achieved largely by bolt-together, Space Frame design.
2. Design for Scalability
3. Modular Design
4. Design for Fabrication
5. Simplicity. Minimal parts count. Maximum redundancy of part types.
6. Low cost. Off-shelf parts. Minimum machining.
7. Meeting or exceeding industry standards
8. Machine fit as part of a greater product ecology - on the component level, module level, and
9. Designed as a Product Ecology - at the component, module, and machine level.

The development process itself follows:

1. Test-Driven Design
2. Modular Design
3. Interface Design (Contract-First Manufacturing)
