Mold design is one significant activity in a much larger product development process. Since product and mold design are interdependent, it is useful for both product and mold design engineers to understand the plastic part development process and the role of mold design and mold making. A typical product development process is presented in Figure 2.1, which includes different stages for product definition, product design, business and production development, ramp-up, and launch.
