Abstract  Open-architecture products (OAPs) provide a sustainable product framework for the mass personalized production with features of sustainability, adaptability, upgradability and extendibility. OAPs can meet users needs using the product platform and common interfaces to integrate function modules from different sources. A mathematical model of product open index was proposed to measure the open degree of a product in its life cycle. Based on the technical factors of OAPs, two key indicators, namely compatibility of the product (COP) and life cycle modularity (LCM) were proposed to measure and evaluate the open degree of a product. An industrial paperfolding machine was used in the case study to verify and analyze the proposed method.

开放式结构产品的评价方法研究

开放式结构产品为大批量个性化生产提供了一个持续的产品架构,它具有可持续性、可适应性、可升级性和可扩展性的特点.开放式结构产品由开放式结构的产品平台和通用的接口构成,通过集成源于不同生产商的模块满足用户的个性化需求.建立产品开放指标的数学模型在产品设计阶段评估产品在生命周期中的开放度.从产品的技术因素方面提出了2个关键指标:产品的兼容性(compatibility of the product, COP)和生命周期的模块化(life cycle modularity, LCM),用来描述产品的开放特征和开放程度.最后以工业产品纸袋折叠机作为实例对提出方法进行了验证和分析.
