The Role and Significance of PDM Systems in the Development of Manufacturing Equipment

Methods of improving the efficiency of the processes when designing manufacturing equipment using PDM-systems is investigated in this paper. It highlights the importance of continuous interaction between the client, designer and producer of manufacturing equipment when the input parameters of the design process are being determined. The constituents of a generalized model of the required manufacturing equipment are analyzed using the example of determining input data for designing a metal-cutting machine-tool. The authors describe the characteristics of the PDM-system as a tool for organizing interaction between all the participants involved in the development of manufacturing equipment within common information space.
Keywords: manufacturing equipment, design, life cycle, data management, project, designer, client, manufacturer, machine tool, common information space, CALS, PDM-system.
