A Product design is a process which is set of technical activities within a product development process that work to meet the marketing and business case vision. The design of the manufacturing process, however considered as a part of the product development process. A product development process is the entire set of activities required to bring a new concept to a state of market readiness. Further, each product development process changes over time in response to technological and market forces. There are three phases in product development process. The first phase is to ‘Understand the opportunity’, second phase is to ‘Develop a Concept’ and the final phase is to ‘Implement a Concept’. Customer requirements help us to identify the critical technical components that require change. The customer requirements, as a list of needs, each need complete with arrange of possible target values, any value of which a design team might aim to meet. The cost effective technique for rust prevention and durability is need of today’s competitive engineering world. Many of the processes are used for surface treatment like surface plating, Powder coating, Painting, PVC coating. These techniques were used for coating mechanical components, construction applications, automobile, sports, electronic wires and cables. The advantage of this coatings are rust prevention, anti-bacterial growth protection, better adhesion to steel surface, good scratch finish properties.
