Please share your experiences and lessons from engineering design here, so that everyone can learn from them, draw conclusions, and gain insights to improve their work in the future.
I’m not a designer; I work in production management. From the design issues I’ve encountered, it’s important to note that to become a good designer, one must go to the site in person – combining theory with practice is the key to successful design!
What was said on the 2nd floor is right – we need to combine theory with practice, but even more importantly, we must be meticulous; carelessness in design is not acceptable!
Going to the site more often to understand the situation and see things in person brings many benefits to design. It allows one to see how others design things and what clever approaches they use. By learning from these examples, one can improve oneself and correct those aspects of one’s own designs that do not match the practical requirements of actual production
A lesson learned: I once designed a very compact piping layout, forgetting to consider the height of the flange neck (wafer flange with neck), which made installation on site impossible.
The key is to be bold and careful; one must be willing to take on tasks without being hesitant. These qualities need to be developed through practice. Being careful at work and willing to ask for advice will help one grow better and faster.
