Rapid Design Method
From Open Source Ecology
- First, leverage Collaboratively Literate Swarms to increase your pace corresponding to the number of collaborators, assuming Zero Waste Collaboration
- Use admissible parts list such as Fab Tool Icons specific to area of endeavor
- Look up Design Guide in the area of interest, to define Working Modules of interest
- Draw up vBOM using admissible parts from 1 and admissible Working Modules from 2
- Design technicalities using FreeCAD, to generate CAE Analysis and CAM capacity. Export for analysis in OpenFoam, and generate rapid manufacturing schematics in KiCAD for open source PNP fabrication
- Perform Calculations to include some engineering. Develop FreeCAD analysis capacity for the specific topic.
- Use CNC mill, laser cutter, torch table, robotic arm, 3D Printer, WAAM, CNC Sawmill, automated ZnAl caster, with the CAM-generated files
- Render product concepts
- Develop Production Engineering for garage, FabLab, RLF, and Swarm scales/contexts.
