Green design and manufacturing have become core directions for the transformation and development of the mechanical engineering field. This study analyzes the key pathways and practical challenges in their implementation, explores the application approaches of green concepts during the product development stage, and examines the obstacles in promoting green manufacturing technologies. Process optimization solutions are proposed based on lifecycle assessment methods. Multi-dimensional verification of practical outcomes in typical industries reveals adaptability feedback and room for improvement in current implementation. The findings indicate that advancing the green manufacturing system requires coordinated efforts among policy, technology, and market mechanisms, providing theoretical support and practical guidance for high-quality and sustainable development in the manufacturing industry.
