Abstract

In mass customization the product platform is the power method to improve the reused ability of existing design resource. But to the high degree modularity product, the module limits the commonality of product platform. The flexible product platform solves the conflict of modularity’s variety and commonality. The platform parameters denote the common properties of product platform and different values of those parameters realize the flexible of product platform. Then the parameter-independent modules can be combined into a physical product platform and extend to satisfy much more market segments. The flexible product platform of CNC grinder improves the reutilization and guides the designer promptly to develop the individual CNC grinder for personal customer needs.
