Abstract

PURPOSE:To obtain the economic and efficient system and to eliminate errors by updating a data base stored with standard article information by EDP. CONSTITUTION:The system consists of a display part 1, a keyboard 2, a central processor 3, a printer 4, the standard article data base 5, and a component constitution information data base 6. A guide book is used in the setting stage of the device and component constitution designing operation which is performed manually by a designer before is carried out by automatic selecting generation processing. Consequently, the diversity of the needs of demand expanding customers for job shop products can be handled, the efficiency is improved on the designer side, and the cost reduction and the shortening of a delivery data are attained on a supervisor side.

Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION (Field of Industrial Application) The present invention relates to a method for creating a bill of materials, and particularly to a system for automatically editing and creating a bill of materials that meets the needs of a designer.

(Conventional technology) Conventionally, a single parts bill is created by the designer referring to a guidebook that describes standard product information, selecting the relevant part within the range that meets the characteristic conditions, and then inputting the symbol of the part using the keyboard. Created a bill of materials.

(Problem to be solved by the invention) In the conventional parts bill creation method described above, each time a design is made,
They referred to guidebooks and found parts that matched the characteristic conditions, and then entered the part's symbol and product name code using the keyboard. For this reason, there are disadvantages in that an enormous number of design man-hours are required to search the guidebook for parts that best meet the designer's requirements, and human errors may also occur due to transcription.

In addition, we regret the man-hours required to select one part for each design from a guidebook that describes standard product information.
The disadvantages are that parts that are not standard products are often misused, are unreliable, and are uneconomical in terms of cost and delivery time.

The purpose of the present invention is to convert all the component names corresponding to each condition described in the standard product information guidebook into EDP, and when multiple characteristic conditions are given from the keyboard while looking at the display of the terminal, the condition will be met. In addition to displaying multiple parts in a range and selecting the part that best meets the designer's needs from among them, a database tl that stores standard product information is available.
- It is an object of the present invention to provide an automatic parts list creation system that eliminates the above-mentioned drawbacks by updating in an EDP manner, and is configured to be economical, efficient, and error-free.

(Means for Solving the Problems) The automatic production system for parts and garments according to the present invention is configured to include an input/output means, a one-part configuration information database, a standard product database, a central processing unit, and a printer. be.

The input/output means is for inputting the types and characteristic conditions of the component parts and for displaying the obtained part configuration information as an image.

The component configuration information database is for storing information regarding the configuration of component parts.

The standard product database is for storing information regarding standard products of component parts.

The central processing unit exchanges information with the parts configuration information database, searches for parts that meet one characteristic condition from the standard product database, and allows the parts to be selected interactively.

The printer is used to edit the parts list of parts selected interactively by the central processing unit and output the edited parts list.

(Example) Next, one embodiment of the present invention will be explained with reference to the drawings.

FIG. 1 is a block diagram showing an embodiment of an automatic parts list creation system according to the present invention.

In FIG. 1, 1 is a display unit, 2 is a keyboard, 3 is a central processing unit, 4 is a printer, 5 is a standard product database,
6 is a parts configuration information database.

The automatic parts list creation system according to the present invention includes a display unit 1;
A keyboard 2 and a central processing unit 3.

It is composed of a printer 4, a standard product database 5, and a one-part configuration information database 6.

The standard product database 5 stores data on standard parts as shown in FIG.

FIG. 3 is an explanatory diagram showing an example of the display drawn on the display section when creating the parts composition table in this embodiment.

When the designer creates component configuration information, he selects the desired product M1 from the standard components shown in FIG. 3(a) and inputs it into the five product name columns. Next, a screen for inputting component type characteristic conditions as shown in FIG. 3 (bl) is displayed on the display unit 1. By inputting a plurality of characteristic conditions from FIG. 3 (b),
The central processing unit 3 is configured as shown in Fig. 3 (b) from the standard product database 5.
Figure 3 (cl.
It is displayed on the display section l as shown in FIG. When the designer selects the part that best suits his needs from among the parts displayed in Figure 3(c), the part selected by the designer is automatically added to the input field shown in Figure 3(a). is input.

When the parts required by the designer are automatically input based on the above procedure, a parts composition list is created on the display unit 1 as shown in FIG. 3(d). At this time, the clothes are printed out on a special form set in the printer 4. This is used as arrangement information for one ordering department, and also as issuance information for the technical document management department. At the same time, one parts composition table is stored in the parts composition information database 6.

In order to reflect design information that changes significantly in response to technological innovation and diversification of needs, this system also has a function to perform periodic or occasional maintenance of the standard product database 5.

(Effects of the Invention) As explained above, the present invention uses a guidebook in the device design stage to realize the component configuration design work, which was previously done manually by general surveyors, by automatic selection and creation processing by a computer. Increased demand for high-mix, low-volume production products It is possible to respond to the diversification of customer needs, significantly improve efficiency from the designer's perspective, and reduce costs and shorten delivery times from the manager's perspective. There is an effect called.

Also, design errors caused by the designer's manual work.

Or, there is a significant reduction in input errors, and BD of design information.
Effects such as spatial and resource reduction can also be expected through P management.
