Abstract

This paper proposes a bill of material (BOM) model for personal manufacturing. The personal manufacturing refers a commercial production system managed by a person or a small number of people who use social technologies, new personal fabrication machines and a set of software for design and manufacturing applications. The proposed BOM model consists of functional requirement for personal manufacturing and corresponding class schema and operations. The paper implemented the proposed model as a BOM management system based on a research and educational purpose product data management system. It also applied an industrial example data to the implemented BOM management system with a personal manufacturing scenario to illustrate feasibility of the proposed BOM model. This paper also included discussion of the result of the application and further research on BOM models for personal manufacturing.
