PDM (Product Data Management, PDM) is technology used to manage all product-related information and process. PDM technology can shorten the design and production cycle within the enterprise to improve business management, in order to adapt to rapidly changing market, to obtain greater economic benefits. The product configuration is a very important function of the PDM, product series and custom production, product configuration requirements, and reasonable for product data management, product configuration optimization method for the machinery manufacturing enterprises with to become more competitive.Thesis for the PDM theory of product configuration capabilities of PDM technology, product configuration management, optimization methods, evaluation and decision-making method, the application of optimization methods to optimize product configuration program on the PDM system, application evaluation PDM system’s product configuration, optimization and decision-making methods. And on this basis on the product configuration optimization method for integrated PDM system structure. |
