engineering design process prototyping frying innovationYour Sweet Spot Life is seeking innovative design solutions for a new line of versatile cookware that is 100% Canadian. The project involves creating detailed design drawings for three key kitchen items: a frying pan, a pot, and a cake pan. These items must feature an airtight, sealable, heat and cold-resistant top, enabling them to transition seamlessly between oven, stovetop, cupboard, fridge, freezer, sub-50-degree temperatures, and microwave. Additionally, the cookware should have removable handles for enhanced portability and storage convenience. The goal is to provide a comprehensive set of design drawings that will guide the prototyping team in developing these multifunctional kitchen essentials.
The deliverables for this project include a set of detailed design drawings for each of the three cookware items: the frying pan, pot, and cake pan. These drawings must clearly illustrate the removable handle mechanism and the airtight, sealable top. The designs should be precise and ready for use by the prototyping team to ensure accurate and efficient prototype development.
Direct involvement in project tasks, offering guidance, and demonstrating techniques.
