Theoretical study on extended master model of mould feature
In this paper, a concept of extended Master Model is presented, mould features are classified and the master model of information hierarchy of mould is built. According to feature mapping theory, mapping categories of mould features are defined, mapping from mould features in various stage to cost feature field is implemented, which lays foundation for building cost information model of mould and implementation of cost oriented mould design.
