1.1. Purpose and Background With the continuous development of the market, consumer demand tends to be diversified and personalized, and the market is increasingly characterized by changes. Therefore, companies urgently need to improve the efficiency of their own products under the premise of equal product quality. , Quickly respond to the needs of customers, in order to be invincible in the fierce world market competition environment.
Teamcenter system through the product configuration function, can effectively build a basic full BOM through the modular variable configuration, to quickly generate the personalized products required by the customer, to help companies achieve rapid overtaking curve.

1. From the perspective of product management, modified products should be managed as new products. Therefore, the product code of different modified products is different.
1. Different modified products are managed as new products. The product code should be differentiated.
2. For the same parts and parts, use borrowing (including borrowed parts, common parts, unified parts) to organize.
3. Different parts and components are designed in a new design.
Multi-program design has the following features:
1. From the perspective of product management, different design schemes in multi-program design should be managed from the same product code.
2. For the same parts and parts, the figure number should remain unchanged.
3. The basic figure number should also remain unchanged for different designs of the same part or part.
4. There are dependencies between components in the same scheme. For example, the components of scheme one usually use the components of scheme one.
Therefore, for the multi-program design model, we use the following program to manage:
1. First, product configuration is based on different design schemes, and modular variable configuration is used.
2. Define the constraints between components in the same design.
The detailed diagram is shown in Figure 3-2:
Different designs can be configured according to the design requirements. Detailed illustration is shown in Figure 3-3.
Based on this situation, it is recommended to use the Teamcenter classification management function to independently manage product modular design libraries for management. The management methods are similar to standard parts and common parts, and they must be modeled in three dimensions so that they can be directly referenced in NX design tools.
Detailed management diagram is shown in Figure 3-4:
Modular design is indeed an effective way for equipment manufacturing to enhance product design and respond quickly to customer needs. It supports customers with a well-established standardized management system, scientific product module planning, and effective product module management processes, and then uses software platforms. To achieve the goal of rapid product development.

1.2. Modular Variable Configuration
To minimize engineering and production costs, modules can be created in the product, and individual plug-in compatible components can be reused. This technique imposes strict constraints on product design methods; Teamcenter supports these constraints on design methods when using modular variables. When using modular variables, options and associated logic are attached to module components. The component's variable condition involves only the options on the parent module, thus making the module independent of any other part in the structure that is related to the logic of the variable. This method requires that the variable data and option values ​​are propagated up and down in the structure so that the user can set options on lower level modules when configuring the entire product from the top level.

Below we propose its corresponding solutions for each situation.
1. From the perspective of product management, modified products should be managed as new products. Therefore, the product code of different modified products is different.
2. For the same parts and parts, the figure number should remain unchanged.
1. Different modified products are managed as new products. The product code should be differentiated.
2. For the same parts and parts, use borrowing (including borrowed parts, common parts, unified parts) to organize.
3. Different parts and components are designed in a new design.
4. Different parts and parts belong to different products.

1.5. Multi-plan design of the same product (component) During the model development process, it often happens that the design needs to be multi-designed. Finally, the final product structure is formed based on the design results. Multi-program design has the following features:
1. From the perspective of product management, different design schemes in multi-program design should be managed from the same product code.
2. For the same parts and parts, the figure number should remain unchanged.
3. The basic figure number should also remain unchanged for different designs of the same part or part.
4. There are dependencies between components in the same scheme. For example, the components of scheme one usually use the components of scheme one.
Therefore, for the multi-program design model, we use the following program to manage:
1. First, product configuration is based on different design schemes, and modular variable configuration is used.
2. Define the constraints between components in the same design.

1.6. Design Modularity With the gradual deepening of product design, many design modules have become common and will form fixed design modules. These modular designs can be applied to multiple products and are not specifically associated with a specific product. Based on this situation, it is recommended to use the Teamcenter classification management function to independently manage product modular design libraries for management. The management methods are similar to standard parts and common parts, and they must be modeled in three dimensions so that they can be directly referenced in NX design tools.
Detailed management diagram is shown in Figure 3-4:

to sum up: Modular design is indeed an effective way for equipment manufacturing to enhance product design and respond quickly to customer needs. It supports customers with a well-established standardized management system, scientific product module planning, and effective product module management processes, and then uses software platforms. To achieve the goal of rapid product development.
