Open Hardware Manufacturing Podcast

Ep. 38 - Taking Prototypes to Production


Listen Later

In this episode of the OHM Podcast, We explore the critical phases of product development: Engineering Validation Test (EVT), Design Validation Test (DVT), and Production Validation Test (PVT). We discuss the importance of each phase in transforming a bare-bones concept into a market-ready product and emphasize the need for structured validation processes to ensure that products meet their intended specifications and can be effectively mass-produced.


Join us as we delve into:


  • The significance of product validation and the role of the Product Requirement Document (PRD)
  • The differences and objectives of EVT, DVT, and PVT
  • How empirical testing and user feedback shape product development
  • Insights into managing engineering teams and collaboration across disciplines
  • Real-world examples from their experiences at Form Labs and Opulo
