Problem Definition and Mission Statement.

3

Most of traveller faced the problem to get clean water when in their travel. They also must bring the supply water for a few day travels. They didnt want to spend more space only for water. They also must give a space for another thing. It could be easy if they just take the water from the river but it not clean to be drinking. The alternative way, we try to give the solution for this problem. This problem can be solving if we design a bottle which purpose for travel. The features must be less space and can provide the clean water. In addition, we try to produce the bottles that high durability which suitable for traveller, convenient size to carry and performs the best functions which provides the clean water by filtered it.

1.2

Overall Objective for the Design Project

After we had a discussion with our team members, we decided to make a simple

bottle water purification which performs like a filter water system. The design should be simple, attractive, light weight, easy to carried, high durability and tough materials. The design also should be ergonomic to make sure it safely to be use. Besides that, the price of this bottle should not be too expensive because it will burden people to buy it.

We make market analysis and try to identify the market target. We gather information from the customers, and base on their requirement we try to put the feature needed into our product. For the engineering requirement we divided into three categorized which are performance measure, size of range and technical detail. Customer requirements communicate with technical requirements. In the performance measure, we state three specification of our bottle. European Standard the dimension used is ISO with mm being the length and kg for the weight. Bottle weight light weight cause easy to carry for travel Material Strength the quality of material using based on the standard plastic bottle

In the size of range, we state two specification of our bottle. No of colour to attract the customer No of sizes the quality of materials using based on the standard plastic bottle

In the technical detail, we state five specification of our product Ergonomic the design must be safely to our customer Durability high quality materials Thickness bottle the thickness related with the light weight of the bottle Types of filter the selection of filter will affect the result of water The water result must free chemical

2.4

Discussion of House of Quality Results

8

By looking at House of Quality results, we determine that there are 4 most important things for our technical requirement which is the types of filter, types of plastic, durability and no of size. From this four feature, the most important part is the filter. The filter must be functional, easy to clean and have a long lifespan. Types of the plastic are also important because it determines the toughness of the product. The plastic material also affects the toxicity in the water. So we need to carefully choose types of plastic that is safe for food according to the Food Safety Act. From the House of Quality, we realize that the durability is also another factor to consider. So, it is clear that the customer wanted a product that is hard to break and strong. The last we decide to focus more is the size of the bottles. Since our target market is traveller. We will carefully study the suitable size for the product to fit perfectly on the traveller bag.

Group Analysis of Result and Recommendations

Feasibility Judgement Analysis From 12 concept that have been design, we selected four that we think suitable as our final candidate after combining and revising the design. From that four, we create our scoring matrix and found out that there are disadvantages and advantages between the designs.

Conclusion From this analysis, we conclude that concept no 4 if combine with concept no 1 is the most appropriate to be our alpha prototype candidate. So, we still need to do some modification to our design for the final product.

CHAPTER 4: FINAL DESIGN

4.1 Detailed Description of the Final Design

Our final design consists of 5 parts. Part no 1 is the body and it was design with ergonomic principle n mind. It full of curve and the shape is easy to hold. The filter is removable for easy cleaning. There is a space for keeping small items at the bottom and can be remove if not needed. The filter system uses the latest technology that we stumble upon in the net. It was something like silicon that can act as a purifier. We also decided to use PET as our product material since from our research; we found that PET is safe for water and also durable for long lasting product life cycle.

Technical Description Volume (Body): 750ml Height (Full Assemble): 200mm Colour: 5 different colours

4.2

DFMA, Safety Consideration of the Final Design

41

We did some improvement to fulfil the design for manufacturing and assembly where we simplify the design and reducing the number of parts because each part there is an opportunity for a defective part and assembly error. However, since the feature demanded needs the extra part, we cannot reduce the number of component. Nonetheless, we try to improve our final design on the next product so that the number of component could be reduce and thus reducing the cost of the product. On the other side, for our safety consideration, we decided to use the most effective filter system and since it can be wash and clean back. We could say that our product will not bring hazard to the user in term of water poisoning or get sick.

4.3

Designs for Sustainability Consideration of the Final Design

42

For our final design, we consider that our product should last for about 20 years or so. We try to achieve this by using a proper material and the thickness of the bottle is also put into consideration so that the bottle could withstand a strong force so that it will not break easily.

4.4

Advantages and Disadvantages of the Final Design

Advantages
Beautiful design Ergonomics Firm hold Easy to clean Durable

Disadvantages
Many parts High cost

4.5

Conclusion

After doing all the research and studies on our product, we can conclude that our product still needs a lot of improvement in term of number of component and also for the fabrication process. We believe that we can still optimise the design of the product so that when developing it, the cost for fabrication will reduce and that we can sell the product at cheaper price.
