Abstract
We have developed design awareness support system which could perform a design of high quality in a short time. Features of developed system are following three functions: (1) Design navigation function prevents omission of procedures by visualizing the standard design process (2) Information automatic delivery function prevents defects and other problems from reoccurring by automatically retrieving trouble information that relates to current work and by delivering it to users (3) Design rule check function prevents problems at the manufacturing stage by finding violation portions of 3D CAD shape in the design state. And we confirmed these functions could contribute to efficiency improvement of the development of products.
