The usual notion about automotive prototypes is that their involvement in the development cycle is only once in the validation process between the initial product design and final production. However, in reality, the automotive prototypes are required for different purposes before the design is actually finalized and is sent for manufacturing. Right from determining that whether the product can be manufactured and deciding on materials to be used to evaluating the types of tools and equipment required to manufacture the product, automotive prototyping is not just a single step in the development cycle.
Being an integral part of the automotive engineering process, prototypes help engineers to understand how to make part or product that can attract more customers, convince the internal reviewers and stakeholders to invest in the new design as well as ensure the safety of end users with the new product.
To understand how prototypes are used by automotive…
