Research on Product Family Modeling Method for Design Resource Reuse

Abstract

In order to solve the problem that design resources can not be effectively managed in the process of product rapid response design, a product family modeling method of design resource reuse-oriented is proposed, and design resources reusable model based on the level of feature base is established. Based on Generic Bill of Materials (GBOM) structure tree of product family and master model technology, product family variant parameters transmission structure model is constructed, and product family design resource is established through instantiation to master model so as to realize product configuration and variant design in the construction of resource base. In the developing process of the rapid response design system of machine tool component, the Linear Motion (LM) rolling guide variant design subsystem is developed by the application of the above methods to realize the variant design and configuration management of LM rolling guide. The result shows that the method can provide a reliable guarantee for establishment and effective management of corporate design resource base.
