Product Information Modeling and Organization with MBD

Abstract:

Model-based definition (MBD) promises reduced time-to-market and improved product quality. Adopting MBD concept in product development process seems to be the next reasonable step. However, some existent critical issues related to data content and presentation need to be overcome. To offer proper solutions from the standpoint of design and manufacturing integration, MBD concept was firstly introduced in order to describe its characteristics and capabilities. Then the answers to the following questions were given: what data are necessary for design and manufacturing integration, how data should be semantically organized and presented based on solid model and CATIA PPR (Product Process & Resource) tree.
