Material Selection Is One of The Most Common Tasks For Design Engineering

Selection of the proper materials is crucial for reliable product performance. Engineers must assess how a material will impact a product's performance. Material testing provides information on quality and common failure modes to help with projects, failure analysis, and understanding material interactions. The cost of materials must also be considered for projects, balancing affordability with quality and reliability since choosing the lowest cost material may compromise these attributes.

Selection of
material
Material selection is one of the most common
tasks for design engineering. The ability to
assess the material’s impact on the
performance of a product is crucial for
reliable performance. Sometimes, buyers are
also considering the label or name of the
company which are producing great quality
of materials and are known in the market.
Examples are the name HP for printer and
Intel for some computer hardware.
2. Testing of
material
The testing of material properties is widely understood
to be the key to obtaining data for a project, performing
failure analysis, or understanding material interactions.
Material testing also provides information on the quality
of incoming and outgoing products. Inspection test
equipment and techniques are demonstrated for a wide
range of materials and assemblies during the class. This
provides the participants with both knowledge of the
common failure modes.
3. Cost of
material
The cost of material is also considered when
buying or selecting materials for a specific project.
The amount may vary but never taken for granted
the quality and the reliability of the material. Will
you buy material which is less expensive but worst
quality? Will you buy material which you cannot
afford? People look for places which can meet their
standards and right cost for materials to buy.
