Pellet Stoves: an example of our transversal process

Development of a Family of Pellet Stoves

We have applied a design path already tested on other products also for the development of an entire family of Pellet Stoves. A transversal process, divided into six phases, conceived to address in a linear way a new project from the initial phases to its final realization.

Development of a Family of Pellet Stoves

Define

The starting point is the general mapping of the project, an overall vision of the objectives that must be defined and constantly monitored during the entire design process. In this phase we will mainly explore the market, the positioning, the initial costs, the requirements and the technical feasibility of the new product.

Markets, Competitors, Positioning, Requirements, Features, Usability, Uniqueness, Costs

Design

In this phase the new product takes shape starting from the general mapping. Fron the first drafted aesthetic lines the overall style and functional details of the new product take shape. The initial draft of the technical parts and stylistic elements is translated into a 3D model taking into account the assembly process, the materials and the requirements of the relevant legislation.

Develop

Once the Design is defined, we move on to the technical development in order to make the new product manufacturable. This phase involves the development of all the parts that make up the product: structural parts, mechanisms, and aesthetic coatings with the creation of engineered 3D models and technical boards of each component and its respective assemblies. The most complex design solutions are verified through virtual simulations.

Test

Once the Development phase is completed, we move on to the construction of the first prototype to carry out real functioning tests of the new product at laboratories and certification bodies.

Refine

Once the test data have been collected, we proceed with the product refinement phase, therefore with the necessary modifications of the engineered 3D models and the technical boards that will be the final ones used for manufacturing.
