As product varieties increase and life cycles shorten, the need for rapid product development becomes critical to maintain competitiveness in the market. Reverse engineering technology enables us to quickly create the CAD model of product. Rapid prototyping is another technology that can shorten the product development time by fabricating the physical prototype of a part using layered manufacturing technique. And how to integrate these two technologies to facilitate rapid product development is an important issue. Haptic modeling has the advantages of allowing the user to touch, feel, manipulate, and model point cloud in a 3D environment that is similar to a natural setting. A high-quality STL file can be obtained from the haptic modeling system which is ideal for rapid prototyping. In this paper, a novel method of integrating RE/RP for rapid product development based on haptic modeling is presented, which can increase the efficiency for RE/RP integration and promote product innovative design. Case study is also given to demonstrate the feasibility of the proposed method.

AbstractProduct development should cover product design, validation, and manufacturing. In traditional product development, physical validation based on physical trial manufacturing is the key step to confirm the design scheme before physical manufacturing. However, physical validation is costly and inefficient, which could be the main obstacle to achieving rapid product development. The emergence of digital twin provides an opportunity to accelerate product development by eliminating physical validation toward digital validation in the smart manufacturing era. Therefore, a framework of rapid product development based on digital twin is proposed in this paper. During product development, the new product is designed according to the new requirements in the virtual space, in which the existing digital twins of products can be referenced. Then, an ultrahigh-fidelity virtual manufacturing system is constructed for digital trial manufacturing based on the digital twin of the manufacturing system and the design scheme of the new product. An ultrahigh-fidelity digital prototype can be obtained from digital trial manufacturing for digital validation. The new product validation is executed on the digital prototype to test its performance. The digital validation results can be used to improve the design scheme of the new product and boost the corresponding manufacturing processes. In addition, the core characteristics and key technologies of rapid product development based on digital twin are discussed. Finally, a case study is presented to implement the proposed framework and to show the effectiveness of accelerating product development.
