工艺规划是连接设计和制造的关键产品开发活动，传统上是根据设计过程的结果进行的。设计后进行工艺规划的后果之一是，执行上游活动所需的工艺规划（可制造性）信息在大多数情况下无法正式获得。在产品开发过程的早期阶段使用非正式的可制造性信息可能导致不可信的可行性研究或不必要的设计迭代。为了解决这一问题，本文提出了一种模块化的工艺设计活动的执行过程。它允许在了解订单的详细信息和产品要求后立即开始执行某些过程规划活动。其目标是确保在产品开发过程的各个阶段，包括在过程规划之前的活动中，都能获得正式的可制造性信息。新的模块化工艺规划过程已被应用，它已被发现，可以避免由于缺乏可制造性信息所导致的设计迭代。本文首先对问题进行了定义，并介绍了相关的工作。然后介绍了模块化工艺设计过程，并给出了一个应用实例。Copyright © 2005 by ASME
Process planning is a key product development activity that links design and manufacturing, and is traditionally carried out based on the outcome of the design process. One of the consequences of conducting process planning after design is that the process planning (manufacturability) information needed in the execution of upstream activities is in most cases not available formally. Using informal manufacturability information in the early phases of the product development process can lead to e.g. untrustworthy feasibility study or unnecessary design iterations. As an attempt to solve this problem, a modular procedure for execution of process planning activities is proposed in this paper. It allows for the execution of some of the process planning activities to commence as soon as the details of the order and the requirements for the product are known. The goal is to ensure that formal manufacturability information is available in various stages of the product development process, including to those activities that take place prior to process planning. The new modular process planning procedure has been applied, and it has been found that the design iterations caused by lack of manufacturability information can be avoided. This paper first defines the problem and presents related works. It then introduces the modular process planning procedure, and presents an application case study.Copyright © 2005 by ASME
