Abstract
Concurrent Engineering, Collaborative Design and Network Manufacturing have higher demands for parts library to share information in and among enterprises. However, various enterprises have distinctive requirements for parts library information sharing. Based on the study of the diverse parts library application status, a Parts Library Application Level Model (PL-ALM) is put forward. Firstly, the definition of PL-ALM is given. Secondly, contents of the four layers of PL-ALM are expatiated in detail, which are geometry layer, system layer, neutral layer and network layer. Thirdly, in order to upgrade parts libraries on different layers gradually, a step-up solution is provided to aiming at single geometry information, multi-view information, heterogeneous information and distributed information respectively. According to the PL-ALM, evaluation software is developed, which standardizes and advances the application level of parts library of enterprises.
