  Abstract/
Summary
Product Life Cycle Management (PLM) is a relatively new research concept. PLM integrates the information and knowledge generated during a product's lifecycle to improve it and make the collaborative work easier. A case study is presented to see how knowledge integration using CAD and CAE tools is required for PLM to support a crown gear design at a Swiss metalworking company. CAD tools were implemented to generate a virtual prototype which was used to perform CAE. Finite Element Modeling (FEM) was used to do this engineering analysis. This paper focuses on knowledge integration at collaborative workspace as an issue required at product design stage using a PLM concept. This paper argues that it is required information and knowledge structures along the project life cycle using new methods to obtain product design knowledge integration at PLM.
