With the development of the international market and the improvement of foreign productivity, the advantages of the metal stamping parts manufacturing industry in China are gradually weakening or even losing. The main reasons are as follows: 1) the product series is single and lacks the competitiveness of the international market. The requirements of the hardware stamping parts for the building decoration and home are not high, the main pursuit of quality is reliable, and the comfort and beauty are seldom considered. But in the foreign market, especially in Europe and America, the customers often consider the high quality of the products. There are more aesthetic, ergonomics and other additional requirements. As an example of the cabinet door support, the domestic customers mainly require that the door support can play a good supporting role and can open and close many times. But in addition to the above requirements, the customers of the European and American markets also require the damping characteristic of the door bracing to prevent the elastic shock when the door is opened. Even to the angle and direction of the door opening, the purpose is to make the use of space more reasonable.PLM provide the design and use standard of some foreign products. The domestic enterprises can form a database on this basis, produce a series of products, and improve the competitive power of the market. 2) the production equipment is backward and the precision of the product is low. Because the precision of the machining precision of the hardware stamping parts is not high, the traditional machine tools can basically meet the requirements, so most of the enterprises in China are still using the common machine tools. But facing the changing market, the poor adaptability of the common machine tools to the new products is poor. In recent years, because of the continuous improvement of labor costs, some enterprises have gradually started to use CNC machine tools, and even the introduction of mechanical hands. Enterprises try to reduce the cost ratio required by the automation of production lines to reduce the cost of labor. In this context, the application of PLM technology has a certain hardware basis. 3) lack of research and development experience and technology accumulation of new products. China's hardware stamping products have a certain degree of duplication of foreign products, which makes the enterprises lack of experience in new product research and development, and the experience of design specifications and technical personnel training is particularly inadequate. The use of PLM technology can make the enterprise develop product research quickly. The new regulations of the system greatly shorten the R & D cycle. 4) labor cost is rapidly increasing. The shortage of labor resources and the increase of labor cost in domestic manufacturing industry are indisputable fact that.PLM technology can shorten the cycle of product research and development, and can connect the production process seamlessly. Under the support of certain equipment, it can greatly reduce the number of the use of labor.
