Research On Conceptual Design Method Of The Faucet Based On QFD

With the continuous development of economy and society, enterprises are faced with increasingly complex internal and external environment, market competition is increasingly fierce. How best to meet customer needs, continuous design and development of products that have market appeal as the key to winning the competition. QFD (Quality Function Deployment, QFD) is a quality the customer needs into requirements, which determines the product design, and systems configured to process all aspects and elements of the multi-level interpretation of the method.Based on the theories of QFD to faucet for the study, proposed method of conceptual design model of the faucet, as well as the specific implementation process model, the model is divided into four phases, the first customer needs analysis, that is, customer demand for products. Characteristics of the second phase of the design, definition, collation, analysis concept design features, design features drawn map. The third phase of construction for the design of the system, to establish a "customer needs - design features" of the correlation between the lack of analysis of existing and redundant design features to increase the lack of design features, eliminate redundant design features, are needs-based design system.The fourth stage is to set the level of conceptual design, conceptual design competition on the assessment, calculation of the relative importance of demand, conversion to the importance of design features, design features of competitive evaluation, analysis and design features of the deficiency and excess, lack of items to improve reduce the surplus items, gnerate conceptual design..This model is applied to high-end faucets will be the concept of product design to customer needs as the starting point to design features as the core, the use of QFD technology to build high-end faucet and evaluate product design features of the system design features, generate demand for high-end customers can meet the needs taps the concept of design. Development of new "Romantic SPA" high-end faucet company can gain a competitive advantage S bring economic benefits. At the same time, the application of the project also brought two significant business results: for enterprises to establish a useful knowledge base and provide guidance on product development and design projects.
