Mechatronics System Design Process and Methodologies

Design process in an interdisciplinary domain like mechatronics is a complex process and sets high demands for designer. It is wide known that decisions in conceptual stage of design process affect final product significantly. Therefore great attention for this phase of design must be paid. The paper gives an overview of the product development process focusing on the conceptual stage and the methodologies and techniques used. An object-oriented approach based on the combination of different techniques is proposed. Quicker conceptual design solutions, optimized design candidates, and well formalized customer needs are the main benefits of the new approach for the conceptual design process.
