Single Product Definition - Start to Finish - Slashes Development Costs
Overview Like all Palm handhelds, the i705 was unique, requiring substantial engineering effort. The team faced the usual challenge: create a great product while minimizing development costs. Palm decided to take a new tack with the i705 handheld, adopting Unigraphics (now called NX) in which all product data - from industrial design to mechanical engineering and mold design, through manufacturing and engineering - is created and maintained in NX. Palm engineering created the 3D surfaces based on Lunar's industrial design sketches. They modeled internal parts and assemblies in NX and gave native NX files to the tooling vendor and manufacturer. To give marketing a head start in promoting the handheld, Palm engineers also used NX to create realistic images of the i705.
