Part Property Management (PPM)

The introduction of EOS's Part Property Management creates a whole host of benefits for everyone involved in the e-Manufacturing supply chain. The first to profit is the designer, who now has constant access to standardized attribute profiles, the Part Property Profiles (PPPs), as well as to the corresponding material values relevant for dimensioning. People responsible for purchasing and quoting will benefit from the clearly defined quality levels. These make it possible to calculate and compare quotes and eliminate costly misunderstandings. Part Property Management helps to save costs and is the basis for making e-Manufacturing even more successful.

Benefits

Standardization
Optimized designs thanks to defined quality and productivity levels as well as simplified communication all the way to production.

Reliability and quality
Part Properties are uniform regardless of the EOS system used for production.

Cost efficiency
Reliable standards enable optimized designs and efficient production.

In the data preparation and production planning subprocesses, PPPs also provide manufacturers with increased efficiency and cost reductions. Further elements of data preparation can be automated, because the parameter set has already been determined by the designer's choice of PPP. The fact that the PPPs are valid for all systems means a lot of flexibility for production planning. The quality assurance processes benefit too from the defined standards and improved transparency.
