What I will study and why I have chosen to study this product I have chosen to study the ‘cello case as my family are very involved in ‘cello’s, my father makes carbon fibre ‘cello’s, my uncle owns a shop that sells different types of cases, and my sister and mother both play ‘cello and have cases. The ‘cello case has also evolved which makes its fulfilment of a specification greater. What I hope to learn I hope to explore and explain how and why different changes and improvements were made. I also hope to find out how the shapes in the body have been effected through time and why. I hope to find facts about the latest in the carbon fibre engineering that is being used by engineer’s such as Laurence P. Green and the material properties of the fibres he is using. What I hope the reader will learn I hope the reader will learn about the changes in materials in order to suit the purpose and the overall design of the ‘cello case. I hope the reader will find my product study interesting and useful. I hope that the product study will offer a good balance between factual issues and issues to do with the design and progression of the ‘cello case. What issues of design I will cover During this study I will cover the following aspects of design; -The history of the ‘cello case and its evolution in design. -The change in design to suit the changes in materials or new options available with new materials. -The user and function of the ‘cello case with additional attachments involved. -Technological developments that have occurred in relation to the case’s design. What issues of Manufacturing I will cover During the study I will cover the following; -The different processes used in some of the different types of ‘cello cases. -Material choices, with advantages and disadvantages considered. -Tools and batch/one off production methods What methods/sources of information will be undertaken in order to obtain the relevant information. To obtain all the necessary information I will need to contact a company such as the Advanced Composites Group, I will be able to obtain information from my Father who is a carbon fibre engineer and some other information from my uncle who is a violin, viola and ‘cello shop, he also constructs quality instruments. Any additional information that may be needed (such as photo’s) may be acquired from the Internet, or other information can be acquired from my Mother who is a semi professional ‘cellist. My proposed Time/Action plan.
