7. INFORMATION SHEET on PLASTICS This Information can be found By following the link below. You will have to scroll through the document but there is an index. This document is very useful for the whole of the Design and Manufacture course. (Will only work in School – however it is available on the Technical Wiki site) P:\Coursework\Read- Only\SENIORS\Technicial\Higher Product Design\Unit 3 Success Guide-’Craft and Design’ Page 34-35, 70-71, 75, 72-73. Task 2: Lamp WHS Technology Department7 Link below if the above does not work. Also look at the book: MATERIALS

8. Plastic Methods of Manufacture/Processes Below are two shortcuts to read! Shortcut 1 is about processes used to manufacture plastic items. Shortcut 2 is more information on plastics and their uses in industry. P:\Coursework\Read-Only\SENIORS\Technicial\Higher Product Design\Unit 3 Task 2: Lamp WHS Technology Department8 Also look on the Internet at: Website: http://wwwfocuselearning.co.ukhttp://wwwfocuselearning.co.uk Username: student@wickhigh4466 Password: hjopfveqr This will be a very useful website

9. Function/Performance: Electrical Components and Circuits Task 2: Lamp WHS Technology Department9

10. Activity 1 Design Outcome 2.1 (T2A1D2.1) This is the First activity for this you need to produce: – a range of ideas for components or parts of the lamp ALSO – You must consider what components will be required – You can produce your ideas on more than one sheet SHOW ON THE LAST INITIAL IDEAS SHEET YOUR ‘FINAL IDEA’ IMPORTANT The Lamp must be made of no less than two parts (one must be made in plastic) and include the battery LED circuit and some way to hold it in place. The sheet following gives some examples of an Initial Ideas Sheet (not for the ‘Lamp’!)

13. Activity 2 Design Outcome 2.1 Materials and Manufacture 1.2,1.5 (T2A2D2.1MM1.2,1.5) This is the Second activity for this product. In this activity you must: – Illustrate your sketches to show details, including how the lamp will be assembled (put together) – Think about the information that has to be communicated and the best way to show it IMPORTANT This task will require you to communicate information on the materials that you are using such as sizes, properties, cost, manufacturing colours and anything else you think is relevant. ‘You may have to use more than one sheet’ Success Guide – ‘Craft and Design’ Developing Ideas pages 20-21 Task 2: Lamp WHS Technology Department13

17. Activity 3 Design Outcome 2.1 Materials and Manufacture 4.2 (T2A3D2.1MM3.1,4.2) This is the Third activity. In this activity you will: – Create a model to support your design thinking and decisions – Think about what materials are best suited to manufacture the model so that it will closely resemble your design – Write an Evaluation of the model to say how well the model works (see sheet after Model Making) In this activity make your model full size, remember you are trying to evaluate your design by modelling a physical representation of it. Task 2: Lamp WHS Technology Department17

18. MODEL MAKING http://www.technologystudent.com/prddes1/model1.html Task 2: Lamp WHS Technology Department18 TO MAKE A MODEL YOU CAN USE ALL SORTS OF MATERIALS. THE MATERIALS CHOSEN SHOULD BE SIMILAR TO THE PROPERTIES OF THE MATERIAL YOU WILL MAKE THE PROTOTYPE FROM. THE DIMENSIONS OF THE MODEL SHOULD NOT BE ‘MADE TO SCALE’ UNLESS THE FINAL PROTOTYPE IS VERY LARGE. IN THESE EXAMPLES THE CHAIR IS MADE TO SCALE BUT THE SHAVER IS FULL SIZE. Chair Model Shaver Model

20. Activity 4 Materials and Manufacture 3.3,3.4,3.5 (T2A4MM3.1,3.3,3.4,3.5) This is the Fourth activity. In this activity you will: – Produce manufacturing plans which incorporate requirements for tools, equipment, materials and fixings, as well as manufacturing techniques and processes. Using what you have learnt and thought about while making your prototype produce a ‘Method of Manufacture’ sheet for the making of the final prototype - look here for information – http://www.technologystudent.com/designpro/quality1.htm http://www.technologystudent.com/designpro/quality1.htm – Success Guide – ‘Craft and Design’ Planning for Manufacture pages 22-23 – THEN: Produce the Prototype – Manufacture your lamp prototype using your chosen materials and methods – Consider the most appropriate materials and the processes you will use to cut, shape, form and join them Task 2: Lamp WHS Technology Department20

23. Activity 5 Materials and Manufacture Outcome 4.2,4.3,4.4 (T2A5MMO4.2,4.3,4.4) This is the Fifth activity. In this activity you will: – Evaluate your lamp prototype by: – Consider the aspects of your manufacturing which have been successful or could be improved upon in terms of Craftship and Finish – Recommend changes in your design to show how the prototype could be commercially manufactured – consider economy, efficiency and sustainability – You must also show that you have thought of the environmental issues in the production of your product and how this is considered in a commercial setting – go to this web page for a way to write an evaluation http://www.technologystudent.com/designpro/eval1.htm You will need to produce at least one sheet of work Success Guide – ‘Craft and Design’ pages 24-26 Task 2: Lamp WHS Technology Department23
