Textile PLM Technology A New Tool For Textile And Garment Enterprises

< p > for most of the domestic "a href=" http://cailiao.sjfzxm.com/Matertial/show/default.aspx > clothing enterprise < /a >, PLM is still a concept which is not known.

However, influenced by the fluctuation of economic environment in recent years, PLM is being mentioned more and more in the context of industrial upgrading and independent innovation.

Through information construction, it will become more common to solve the problems faced by industries and enterprises by means of extensive and in-depth information technology, which affects human production and life.

For suppliers of information solutions, there is no time like this now. It is time for domestic textile and garment enterprises to get to know PLM better.

P refers to the definition of the global authority cimdata in the field. PLM is a series of applied solutions that support the creation, management, distribution and application of information in the whole life cycle of enterprises, which are applied to enterprises within a single location, dispersed within multiple locations and collaborated with enterprises in the product R & D field. It can integrate human resources, processes, application systems and information related to products.

It can be seen that the application of PLM can be an internal or an enterprise, and the role of PLM can run through the whole life cycle of the product; PLM has integrated functions.

Therefore, if PLM Software is just another kind of enterprise application software, such as CAD (computer aided technology) and ERP (Enterprise Resource Planning), then it misunderstands and underestimates its function and significance.

< /p >

< p > with the rapid development of < a href= "http://www.91se91.com" > PLM technology < /a >, PLM Software has gradually covered the whole process of product market demand, conceptual design, detailed design, processing and manufacturing, after-sale service and so on.

The PLM system can not be regarded as a pure database. It can be integrated with cad/cam, PDM, ERP and SCM (Supply Chain Management), CRM (Customer Relationship Management) and other systems. It can make full use of the product data and intellectual assets of the relevant systems to build PLM ecosystem, so that enterprises can achieve data management and effective pfer between internal and related enterprises, so that every work link can develop, produce and manage products in the product life cycle.

What needs to be added is that PLM is not a simple "system integration". It is similar to "integrating a PDM, two CAD, and a digital assembly together with a ERP or SCM system connected with web technology", rather than a real PLM.

In the process of managing invisible resources, the content of PLM is more extensive and deeper.

< /p >

< p > PLM has become a feasible overall solution in recent years, partly due to its connection with software systems such as CAD, ERP and PDM. For example, many PLM developers are pformed from CAD and PDM developers, and PLM technology itself is intersected with other a href= "PLM" and "information technology".

< /p >

< p > some people think that PLM is a branch of ERP.

In fact, the two are essentially different, PLM manages invisible resources, and ERP controls tangible resources.

PLM involves full cycle management from product development to manufacturing completion, providing solutions from planning to support, covering all relevant departments and the entire supply chain.

The ERP system mainly includes main production plan, material requirement plan, capability plan, purchase plan, sales execution plan, profit plan, financial budget and human resource plan. Its function is integrated into the whole supply chain system, and its core purpose is to realize effective management of the entire supply chain.

< /p >

< p > before PLM came into being, the industry used PDM (Product Data Management) technology to manage all product related information and all product related processes, and developed WebPDM solutions that can be widely used in many industries such as clothing, footwear, home appliances, furniture and toys.

PDM can be regarded as the prototype of PLM, and the core of PLM Software is PDM software. It extends and extends the function of PDM, emphasizing the management and utilization of all information across the supply chain in the product life cycle. It is equivalent to "collaborative PDM", which can realize the collaborative application of product data between R & D departments and enterprises, and even between enterprises.
