Course FP20 3D packaging.

Included as a course in the class Packaging developer/designer

Packaging developer/designer, YH00857, 3D packaging, 10 YH credits The purpose of the course is for students to develop knowledge of 3D generation of packaging in order to present mock-ups. The goal of the course is that students can produce visualisations of packaging prototypes in 3D using 3D software common in the industry. Students will also gain in-depth knowledge of designing packaging in a 3D retail environment and of how the shape of a package affects production possibilities. The course provides knowledge of... - How the design of 3D packaging affects production possibilities - Designing packaging in 3D software - Packaging details - Part modelling - Assembly modelling - Rotating figures The course provides skills in... - Producing 3D visualisations of packaging using software commonly used in the industry - Applying graphic layout to packaging prototypes in a 3D environment - Drawing in 3D using axis technique - Exporting drawings between different software in order to combine, for example, layout and packaging prototype - Handling and visualising 3D products made up of several components - Carrying out a simple strength analysis - Using a 3D program to visualise packaging and its display in a retail environment - Carrying out external procurement of 3D production The course provides competence to... - Use 3D visualisation to determine what can be produced - Use 3D visualisation of a product in a retail environment to make design choices that optimise usability and logistics flows Grading criteria The grade Fail (IG) is given if the student has not met all the criteria for Pass. For the grade Pass (G) the student must be able to: - Understand how the design of 3D packaging affects production possibilities - With some supervision, apply graphic layout to packaging prototypes in a 3D environment - Master drawing in 3D using axis technique - Export drawings between different software in order to combine, for example, layout and packaging prototype - With some supervision, handle and visualise 3D products made up of several components - Carry out a simple strength analysis - With some supervision, use a 3D program to visualise packaging and its display in a retail environment - Know how an external procurement of 3D production can be carried out - Analyse and interpret, through 3D visualisation in a retail environment, whether a product can be produced and make design choices that optimise usability and logistics flows For the grade Pass with Distinction (VG) the student must be able to: - With great confidence analyse and interpret, through 3D visualisation in a retail environment, whether a product can be produced and make design choices that optimise usability and logistics flows - With great independence apply graphic layout to packaging prototypes in a 3D environment
