Join Nout Van Heumen for a 30-minute discussion on the importance of real-time concept design and the tools he uses in the overall innovation and product development process. Nout is a Dutch industrial designer and engineer with a long legacy of meaningful results through his innovative real-time concept design approach. His work at HSV Packaging & Insulation was so highly respected by clients that he now balances a full-time position at HSV with many freelance projects for those clients. As part of his freelance work, Nout has delivered award-winning designs to a range of manufacturers, from small start-ups to the likes of Aristides Instruments (manufacturer of the Aristides OIO Guitar) and Oriphiro (manufacturer of the first cool-looking electric motorcycle).

5. Make it perfect, so it can be made

6. Nout van Heumen
• Transform an idea in a real product.
• Design and/or engineer consumer products from steel, plastic wood etc.

7. How do I create positive experiences with my clients?
• Develop beautiful, functional things that are completely ready for
production
• Tailored projects for diverse design challenges
– Each project has different needs, for completely different industries

8. Nout’s Methodology
• Try to understand your customer’s wishes.
• Try to understand the manufacturer’s methods and limits.
• Think over the development process with testing-models etc.
• Put all the parts in your CAD-model to avoid surprises.
• Start over if your method of drawing isn’t sufficient.
• Don’t stop until your model is perfect, and is ready to be manufactured.

9. Nout’s Methodology
Real-time Concept Design
• Construct your parts in an absolute accuracy
– (config-pro: enable_absolute_accuracy)
• Construct your parts without geom-checks
– (config-pro: show_geom_checks_on_creation)
• Check your step-file for mistakes before you send it to a manufacturer
• This offers you:
– Good step-files. No mistakes, and ready for anyone to use.
– Time savings. Files are ready to use and don’t need to be recreated.
– No surprises. The part will be exactly as you constructed it.
– Time saving. Because everything is clear: offers are made faster, production can start earlier, etc.
– Work. Manufacturers hate to repair bad files (therefore, they’ll be inclined to ask you for help more frequently).

11. Why Creo 2.0?
• Large, stable assemblies
– Interactively explore assemblies
• Accuracy!
• Parametric Modeling
– Concepts need to be created quickly - often from existing parametric models
• Advanced surfacing capabilities
12

12. Key take-aways
• With PTC Creo 2.0, its possible to make amazing, ready-for-production
products that can easily be modified at any stage of the process
– Amazing modeling capabilities with high end surface quality
– Possibility to make late stage design changes
• You need to be able to modify existing design but retain design intelligence
• No need to recreate the model
– Good, accurate files ready for production
