With the rapid development of the manufacturing industry, enterprises are faced with the challenge of increasing the variety and quantity of product parts. The traditional management method has been difficult to meet the needs of the modern manufacturing industry, and the classification management of parts and components came into being, which has become the key to improving the efficiency of enterprises. This article will discuss the value of parts classification management, the implementation steps, and the application in the PDM system of Sanpin product data management.
Component classification management value
In manufacturing, the diversity of components and the complexity of management are unavoidable. Component classification management simplifies the management process by grouping parts with similarities, such as structural shapes or manufacturing processes, into part families. This approach not only improves part reuse and reduces unnecessary duplication of effort, but also brings significant benefits in design, process, procurement, and manufacturing.
Design link: improve design efficiency
With effective categorization, engineers and designers can quickly retrieve suitable or similar parts and reuse them directly or improve their designs, thereby maximizing design efficiency.
Process link: improve the efficiency of process preparation
After the parts are classified, the process engineer can compile a typical route or borrow a route for the same type of parts to standardize and improve the efficiency of the process.
Procurement: reduce procurement costs
Component sorting improves the reuse of parts, reduces the variety of purchases, and reduces purchase prices and costs by increasing the number of individual parts to purchase.
Manufacturing: Improve production efficiency and stability
The reuse of parts reduces the impact on production stability and reduces the need for retraining of on-site personnel, increasing productivity and reducing errors.
Sanpin PDM system parts classification management
As an indispensable tool in modern manufacturing, PDM system is the key to enhance the competitiveness of enterprises by its parts classification management function. The following are the implementation steps of parts classification management in Sanpin PDM system:
Taxonomic studies
Enterprises should carefully sort out the composition of typical products and parts according to the characteristics of their own products, and establish a unified classification standard system.
Special Expedition Arrangement
Describe the characteristics of the components, including general attributes and specific attributes, establish feature index attributes, and realize unique identification and retrieval.
Rulemaking
Formulate management rules, including naming rules, coding rules, attribute description rules, etc., to realize the standardized management of the component classification library.
Retrieval and utilization
Establish a component classification library, so that engineers can select and use existing parts from the library, and improve design efficiency.

Sanpin PDM system provides the characteristics of operation facilitation, classification differentiation and rule automation, etc., to help enterprises realize the planning and implementation of parts classification management:
Convenient operation: Provide simple classification management tools, which is convenient for enterprise users to organize the classification level of parts.
Classification differentiation: Allows users to configure the attribute interface for parts of different classifications to achieve differentiation of features and retrieval.
Rule automation: Provide coding management function to realize the automatic compilation of parts coding and the automation of the circulation process.
epilogue
Classification management of parts and components is an effective means to improve the efficiency of the manufacturing industry. Through the rational use of the three-product PDM system, enterprises can not only realize the rapid retrieval and reuse of parts, but also reduce costs, improve product quality, and shorten the product development cycle. As an important tool in this process, the functions and characteristics of Sanpin PDM system will help enterprises build an efficient parts management system.
