Knowledge Based Engineering (KBE) |
|
| |
| To remain competitive, its imperative for manufacturing firms to embrace knowledge-based engineering (KBE)—the use of software tools and techniques for capturing and reusing intellectual property and product know-how in ways that bring product design into closer harmony with manufacturing. KBE creates potential opportunities for design engineers functioning as subject matter experts, or as knowledge application authors who use KBE tools. |
| |
| The need to capture, manage, and utilize design knowledge and automate processes unique to a manufacturer’s product development experience has led to the development of knowledge-based Engineering (KBE) technology. |
| |
| The purpose of KBE is to provide a specialized design environment to the users for capturing intents. |
| |
| The goal of KBE technology is to provide design organizations with a high-level programming environment for capturing and infusing this valuable knowledge into its product design processes and to engineer manufacturing products with more consistent product quality and increased production efficiencies. |
| |
| KBE helps in reduction in design time, eliminates checking, captures product knowledge and allows companies to customize more and more products, with shorter lead times, and increased market share and revenues. |

SRA’s Knowledge Engineering model help greatly in: |
|
 |
Drastic reduction on design time |
|
Product knowledge and expertise of experienced personnel captured on system |
|
Human error removed to a large extent |
|
Enhanced facility for checking the basic design data |
|
Instant availability of data on system (Drawing retrieval time reduced to minimum) |
|
Interpolation possible for new product development |
|
Archiving the design practices & experience of the designers |
|
Integrating Engineering Analysis Calculation with the Computer Aided Design and Model |
|
Performing simulation of the model for performance, manufacturing of parts, assembly and for operation & |
|
maintenance. |
|
Linking it with Stores System, Drawing Document Management, Bidding System, etc. |
