| Product design is a mix of geometry, technology, design and manufacturing processes. Knowledge Based Engineering (KBE) allows organizations to capture design and manufacturing processes in a 'rule-based' engine and relate it to creation of geometry and other engineering deliverables. |
 |
A Knowledge Base Engineering (KBE) solution is a set of 'wizards' that captures the design intent and logic behind a product design.
The 'wizard' also captures best practices that are at the core of an organization's product development guideline.
PDI specializes in creating a KBE solution for any product design and integrating this KBE engine to the CAD system. |
|
 Benefits :
KBE helps to capture domain expertise so that even when people leave, the knowledge remains within the organization. KBE reduces design cycle time. All our customers have experienced a design time reduction of atleast 50%. KBE gives a designer more time for innovation by helping in analyzing what-if scenarios in product design very quickly
