Product Drawing Management System Based On Group Technology

W the develoPmen and wide1y used of the cOmPuter tedrilogy the CAD hasbeen more and mor used in the Process of designing product. Engineering toing, as akind of boortan prOject fi1es, has been widely aPPlied in PrOduction and technlogydeveloPmen. Because of the continually aPPearance of the new products the Innner ofthe engineerin draWings will greaily increase. As a reSult, it has become a badly neededtO be solved PrOblem for us that how to raPidly and effidentiy search and aPPropriatelypreserve and manage the drawings. In order to reso1ve the Problems about productexPloitahon and drawing manageInot existed in EXbosion Embranchmot Fatory ofSoHest AlUInnuxn (grouP) Ltrited Liability Corp and accordng to the GT (grouPtedrilogy, we deve1oped a c1assifong-coding systern and drawing managemen systemabout the extuion aluminUIn-boe materials through analyZing a 1arge nUIner ofexmision alndnum-tyPe materials section drawings. By aPplytng thes syStem, we areable to manage the drbongs efficientiy and search the already existed drbongs raPid1yIn a word, this system combined the modem cOInPUeraided product desighngtedrilogy with tradhonal method of managing draWings favorablyThe classiheng and coding system has realized the flexib1e coding and hiddencoding of the extruSion aluminUmmpe materials and consequenhy enhanced theflexfoility and the exPansible of the system witch makes this syStem more whversal andeasi1y to be used. In addtion, thes system tudardized the design of drawings, increasedthe effidency of searching and managing the re1ative informallon. AJl those drictionssuPp1ied by thes system help us resolve the Problern of managing aluxninUIn tyPematerials drawings. At the sazne hme, it makes the exPloitation and design ofproduc hasbetter inherit by utilising the functions of coding based on the software.As thes systern aPP1ied the classiforg and coding Prinop1e based on GT and CADtedm1ogy in design and managernen of drawings Which not only enhance the designquality of Product, shorten the development pedod but also decrease the ropeaed drawingwork and hanMe the method of protract drwings. Because of the huge memoryspace and raPd calculation speed that comPUer possesses, we can manage the ekisteddrawingS central1y and search them raPidiy In conClusion, the high quality and low PriceProduct wtth the helP of aPplytng the CAD technology will not only satisfy therequiremen of the market but also help factOry amer aPPly the compeer technology inthe process of Production (for examPle, haher PrOduction managemen0We has aPplied thes systetn in Extuion Embranchmen FaCtory and obtainedfavorable effeCt wich reveds tha thes system has widely aPPlytng prosPect and uti1ityvalue.
