How PLM help in reuse design

INTRODUCTIONToo many engineering companies are locked in the wasteful practice of repeating work because they do not realize that a particular engineering problem has been solved before.Frequently, companies are unaware that existing parts and their designs can be used in new projects. The savings from maximizing part reuse can extend across multiple enterprise domains and their related processes, including part design, inspection, engineering analysis, engineering change orders, workflow, NC-programming, documentation, shop floor instructions, sourcing, resource planning, assembly instructions, manufacturing, spare part management and many other functions. Unnecessary rework in any of these domains is a waste of both time and money.

PLM is the observation of an item as it moves through the typical stages of development, growth, maturity and decline. Effective product life cycle management brings together the many companies, departments and employees involved with the product's production to streamline their activities, with the ultimate goal of producing a product that outperforms its competitors and is highly profitable. Product lifecycle management, represents an all-encompassing vision for managing all data relating to the design, production, support and ultimate disposal of manufactured goods. PLM

WHAT IS DESIGN REUSEIn information technology, design reuse is the inclusion of previously designed components (blocks of logic or data) in software and hardware. The term is more frequently used in hardware development. Design reuse makes it faster and cheaper to design and build a new product, since the reused components will not only be already designed but also tested for reliability. Developers can reuse a component in both similar and completely different applications.

THE PROBLEM (OPTIMIZING DESIGN REUSE)

CHALLENGES OF DESIGN REUSESEARCH LIMITATIONSNON-DIGITAL DOCUMENTATION

THE SOLUTION: BUILDING A REUSE LIBRARY OF METADATA

Best practice strategies:PlanningCreating categoriesIndexesBuild up a library:Standardized namesLabelsCreate search categories that can facilitate searches based on functional attributes:a. bold and thread sizes for interconnections b. To test and analysis results c. to manufacturing and assembly instructions

BENEFITS FROM DESIGN REUSE PART

1)EngineeringDesigners and engineers will be more productive devoting more time to high-value new projects, delivering them faster. These productivity improvements will extend beyond product development while alleviating the informational demands on designers and engineers.

2)QualityAs there are few risks associated with using existing, proven parts that have already been tested, quality improvements are inevitable.3)ManufacturingIncorporating an existing part into a new product is a known quantity for the manufacturing team. Personnel and manufacturing time are saved, as are time and costs incurred by tooling.

4)Bidding & ProcurementReusing parts decreases stocking costs, leading to savings without damaging important relations with suppliers.The purchasing organization will identify and analyze the right parts more efficiently, making more informed decisions about producing or buying parts.

5)SalesStreamlining the product catalog lets sales associates better focus their pre-sales and support efforts.Most importantly, the above productivity gains impact the bottom line:

6)ManagementThe time saved by engineers and others leads to cost savings that can be reallocated to other programs, potentially to launching new products. Lowering the number of assets decreases working capital, so more cash is available to devote to other projects.The value created by an integrated search experience is clear. Ultimately, customer satisfaction and loyalty improve thanks to faster time-to-market and higher quality, so the investment is easily justified.

IMPLEMENTATIONS REUSE

Data reuse can use two software to implement the process which is Pro/ENGINEERsupports design reuse in a number of ways because it captures geometric information and keeps it with the model for the entire life of the part or assembly.simplifies the capture of text and numerical data.being captured, Pro/ENGINEER lets us determine which parts of an assembly might be good candidates for reuse, and then helps us to create a family table for each of those parts. 2) Windchill.

IMPORTANCE

Important of design reuse is :Decrease time to market, increase organizational agilityLower costs and free up, working capitalImprove quality and decrease risk

CONCLUSIONPLM (product life cycle management) is in the creations and central management of all product data and the technology used to access this information and knowledge. PLM as a discipline emerged from tools such as CAD, CAM and PDM, but can be viewed as the integration of these tools with methods, people and the processes through all stages of a product's life. PLM helps reduce the cost of a product and helps bring better products to market faster, and enables better support of customers' use of products. Design reuse makes it faster and cheaper to design and build a new product, since the reused components will not only be already designed but also tested for reliability. It should be in a focus on people implementing engineering and manufacturing information systems. Variety of data management systems, PDM, PLM, ERP, CRM.
