ID Engineer's product story · AC10 birth record

AC10 series inverter is developed for the market demand of miniaturization, high reliability and high cost performance. It has many advantages such as small size, low temperature rise, superior performance, convenient installation and beautiful appearance.

Relying on the PLM R&D management system, in the development process of AC10, all departments work closely together, and the research and development process is three-dimensional, systematic and traceable, ensuring the rigor and science of the product.

Next, the author will talk about the development of AC10 from the perspective of an ID engineer.

Hello everyone, I am an ID engineer of VEICHI.

When the product is compared to human beings, the software is the soul, the hardware is the organ, the structure is the bone, and the appearance is the skin.

Then everyone can understand my work simply and rudely as: skin design engineer. (Although the depth of industrial design is much more than that)

All say that a good skin bag is all alike, and an interesting soul is one in a thousand. My job is to create a beautiful and unique skin for the interesting soul of VEICHI products.

In late March 2018, the project leader of Tang, he found me and talked about the company's intention to develop a brand new product: AC10.

I understood the core requirements of this product are: miniaturization, cost-effective, high reliability.

Next, we need to clarify the core requirements of the product and the market positioning. After a lot of market research and analysis and discussion with the project team members, we have unanimously determined that the ID requirements of the AC10 product are: slim, compact, novel, beautiful and easy to use.

While fulfilling the above requirements, in the process of design, I must ensure the brand, family and continuity of new products, but also consider the cost and other factors.

In the conceptual phase of design, I have drawn a large number of sketches, some of which have a higher degree of completion and some are just outlines.
