Description

Designing Successful Products with Plastics: Plastic Part Design with Sustainability in Mind, Second Edition provides expert insights into the design considerations required to bring a concept product or part through design and ready-for-production. Rather than focusing on design rules and engineering equations used during product development, the emphasis of the book is on what the designer needs to consider during the early conceptual visualization stages, and in the detailed stages of the design process. This fully updated edition features new practical advice on how to design sustainably throughout the book. This approach will bridge the gap between the industrial designer, tasked with the ‘big picture’ product design and use, and the part designer, tasked with the detailed plastic part design for manufacture. Useful to both experienced and novice designers, this book brings valuable design process information through specific examples, enabling designers and engineers in the plastics industry to effectively use the available technical information to successfully design and manufacture new products.

Author Biography:

Mark T. MacLean-Blevins, founder of MacLean-Blevins & Associates, is an independent product design consultant, in private practice since 1993 with forty-five patents issued for innovations developed as a result of his creative input. After graduating with a degree in Mechanical Engineering from The Johns Hopkins University, Mark applied his knowledge and design talents working for companies such as General Instrument and Mine Safety Appliances, and then, once independent, providing consultation services to companies such as Ciba-Vision, Johnson Wax Professional, Teledyne Energy Systems, and over 90 others. In addition, Mark has been the recipient of several national and international design awards for products developed and commercialized from his efforts and expertise.
