Fixturing information models in data model-driven product design and manufacture

In order to ensure effective decisions are made at each stage in the design and manufacture process, it is important that software tools should provide sufficient information to support the decision making of both designers and manufacturing engineers. This requirement can be applied to fixturing wh...
