Abstract
This contribution describes a prototypical knowledge-based design environment predominantly concentrating on the production-relevant design of micro parts. In this environment a computer-aided knowledge base is linked with a design system (CAD-system). In contrast to a complete knowledge-based design, i. e. modelling a part by the rule-based connection of distinct basic objects or features (which is a matter of structured combination rather than creative designing) the prototype presented promzotes conventional practical design. The designed part is subsequently checked on the basis of parameters derived from the geometry of said part.
