Summary:
The second part of our white paper series on Model-Based Definition (MBD) provides insights into the introduction of MBD in manufacturing companies. Companies which are starting with MBD require a clear understanding and vision for both short-term goals and an alignment with the long-term digitalization and PLM strategy.
This paper outlines capabilities and aspects of distinct MBD maturity levels, which provide orientation in the initial road mapping process. Furthermore, core elements of the MBD introduction roadmap are described.
What’s in it for you:
MBD is an approach where a product is fully defined by an information-enriched 3D digital model. It enables increased efficiency across the entire company and a product development toolset for state-of-the-art manufacturing systems.
The MBD roadmap helps companies to implement MBD specific to their specific needs and goals. Maturity levels help in identifying capabilities throughout the introduction of MBD. This facilitates a gradual step-by-step implementation of MBD, which offers a set of new opportunities and improvements at each stage of the implementation, while reducing risks.
