Abstract
Conventional Product Data Management (PDM) supports aspects of information management but don’t promote the application of target oriented design methodologies like ‘Axiomatic Design’. For Manufacturing System Design PDM has to manage the actual targets, to direct a target-oriented procedure, and to manage objects for evaluation. Targets result from customers and manufacturers. The definition of ‘Functional Requirements’ and ‘Design Parameters’ has to be organized between different core competencies at different times and places. The goal is the configuration of a PDM framework supporting distributed collaborative manufacturing system design in a ‘Axiomatic Design’ oriented way. Based on an axiomatic approach, the implementation of this methodology in a distributed PDM framework is presented. For this, the necessary procedure and controls of ‘manufacturing system design’, information architecture and data interfaces to other software tools are considered and then the paper describes necessary metamodel.
