Abstract The deployment of knowledge-based engineering systems is on the increase within engineering industries and, as such, there will be an ever-increasing demand to share a common product representation, which includes design and manufacturing knowledge. At the moment, each commercial knowledge-based engineering system has its own development language and therefore representation language for design and manufacturing knowledge. To date, no work has fully addressed the need to exchange product knowledge as well as product data. It is, therefore, the main aim of this paper to demonstrate the need for a standard product knowledge representation language and how it could be developed by using existing standards, thereby providing the ability to exchange product knowledge as well as product data.

The demand for electric machines has increased in the last decade, mainly due to applications that try to make a full transition from fuel to electricity. These applications encounter the need for tailor-made electric machines that must meet demanding requirements. Therefore, it is necessary for small-medium companies to adopt new technologies offering customized products fulfilling the customers’ requirements according to their investment capacity, simplify their development process, and reduce computational time to achieve a feasible design in shorter periods. Furthermore, they must find ways to retain know-how that is typically kept within each designer to retrieve it or transfer it to new designers. This paper presents a framework with an implementation example of a knowledge-based engineering (KBE) system to design industrial electric machines to support this issue. The devised KBE system groups the main functionalities that provide the best outcome for an electric machine designer as development-process traceability, knowledge accessibility, automation of tasks, and intelligent support. The results show that if the company effectively applies these functionalities, they can leverage the attributes of KBE systems to shorten time-to-market. They can also ensure not losing all knowledge, information, and data through the whole development process.

Abstract Knowledge-based engineering systems are now becoming more commonplace in engineering industry. There is a need to ensure the technology is used correctly and to provide the user with all the possible benefits that the system can offer. This paper looks at how product knowledge can be managed within knowledge-based engineering systems to ensure that the knowledge retains its value and usefulness during the product lifecycle. Presently, the use of these systems has been for the short-term benefit of the company. However, it is believed that it is important to consider longer-term issues also, since knowledge normally has a half-life of around 20 years. The main aim of this paper is to demonstrate the need for product knowledge management within knowledge-based engineering systems by looking at key issues that are related to the longer-term use of these systems. This paper will also provide a product knowledge management scheme for the development and management of product knowledge within knowledge-based engineering systems, thereby extending the benefits of knowledge-based engineering systems into the longer-term.
