This report covers the Master thesis work conducted at ABB Robotics in Västeråsduring the spring of 2022. The purpose of the thesis was to evaluate how VirtualReality (VR), Augmented Reality (AR) and Additive Manufacturing (AM) can beused in the product design process for designs in Production Engineering. This is tominimize the time between design iterations to assure that the delivered design livesup to its expectations. During the thesis work, different software and equipments have been investigated tofind the appropriate solution for the different types of product designs scenarios. Todo this, the process was applied on the actual product design problem also included inthis thesis work, by involving the end user in the design reviews. During the designreviews different testers had the possibility to visualize and interact with the design.The function of the product design was also examined by using a modular basedproduct structure consisting of the moving and static parts in sub-assemblies. WithAM, the usage of prototypes depending on its purpose was investigated. The result of this thesis is a process consisting of a concept review with VR/ AR, aprototype step where AM is included and a final review with either VR or AR.
