Design Stage
The design of each new vehicle model is kept secret until the beginning of mass production. But the design processes of cars often show similarities. The design process of the vehicles is developed into a draft, starting with an idea. The design consists of different stages. First of all, this process, which starts with drawing, is organized in accordance with the decisions made. Then it is transferred to digital media. The hai of the vehicle on paper is converted into a three-dimensional visual by using technology. The design data is then generated with the help of a computer-generated 3D image, which is used to evaluate the design and aerodynamics. With scale modeling, the complete design of the vehicle is made. But vehicle design does not only remain in the digital dimension. He creates a life-sized model of the car with clay. In the delicate hands of the modellers and with the help of CNC, the car is shaped carefully and carefully. Clay presents the model to people in 3D way. A wide variety of color options that will best fit the car’s design and add more life and style to it are starting to be evaluated. the colors that will provide maximum harmony with the model are usually chosen taking into account the tastes and demands of people. The selected and decided color palette is also based on a comprehensive analysis of the cars.
Engineering Stage
The design and production of a car is integrated with many engineering elements such as machinery, electricity,electronics and software. The engineering stage is very important in vehicle production. This stage consists of the ideal operation of the vehicle and the transformation of the stages considered as ideas into life. At the engineering stage, the beginning happens with the design of the body structure. In the design of the vehicle’s body structure, not only the image is focused. On the contrary, many elements such as the safety, comfort, performance and value of the vehicle are determined and evaluated at this stage. Elements such as the impact resistance, noise and fuel economy of the vehicle also come to the fore during the engineering stage. Then an analysis called NVH is performed on the vehicle. NVH, an abbreviation of the English equivalent of the words noise, vibration and stiffness, is the stage of testing the vehicle within the framework of these concepts.
