XBOM Modeling Method for Product Family
The design based on product family is the key technology to implement mass customization.Its objective is to provide customers individualized products as soon as possible with the lowest cost.XBOM oriented product family gives the mapping relations between the BOM views in the process of production,ensure data consistency.In order to realization supporting BOM variant design,this paper introduces the product family architecture theory,set up the generic XBOM which coverage function domain,technology domain and physics domain,formed a single materials data source product family-oriented,and propose the various types of BOM generation algorithm based on the generic XBOM;Finally introduce the relevant software system design and its application.
