Abstract The product development process management for concurrent engineering (CE) is the emerging technology to reduce the time to market for new product. The product development environment for CE is remarkably characterized by the heterogeneity and distribution. So, it is highly important to build a robust, object-oriented information infrastructure to allow the interoperability between the distributed application systems for realizing system integration of product development process management for CE (CEPDPM). CORBA provides the best technical solution for building such an infrastructure. In this paper, a CORBA based architecture of CEPDPMS integration is described. Herein, a set of interoperable objects includes process management, product data management, and resource management, organization management systems and some design tools. How these objects are encapsulated into CORB A/ORB bus and provided as shared services is detailed by analyzing their granularity wrapped and defining their interfaces in DDL. A prototype implementation of CEPDPMS is outlined.

This chapter addresses the issue of product development chain from the perspective of data modeling and streamlining. The focus is on an emerging ISO standard, informally known as STEP-NC, and how it may close the gap between design and manufacturing for a complete, integrated product development environment. This new standard defines a new generation of NC programming language and is fully compliant with STEP. There is a whole suite of implementation methods one may utilize for development purposes. STEP-NC brings richer information to the numerically-controlled machine tools; hence, intelligent machining and control are made possible. Its Web-enabled feature gives an additional dimension in that e-manufacturing can be readily supported. A case study toward the end demonstrates a STEP compliant, Web-enabled manufacturing system.

Different Levels

AbstractThis paper considers the orientation of product development structures towards interdisciplinary system architectures using the example of a tool machine manufacturer. Due to the change from simple mechanical products to extensively designed systems, whose successful development requires the integration of all disciplines involved, it is analyzed which requirements there are for these interdisciplinary system architectures in today's development environment. In addition, it is validated on the basis of the investigation environment that interdisciplinary system structures are necessary for the development on the different levels of the system view. In doing so, the investigation environment addresses the concept of extracting customer-relevant features (systems) from a physical-tailored modular system (supersystem) in order to develop and test them autonomously, as well as to transfer them to the entire product range in a standardized manner. The elaboration identifies basic requirements for the development of a knowledge base in interdisciplinary system structures and places them into the context of an agile modular kit development.
