Abstract
Mechatronic Design is, by its integrative approach, different from the traditional product development process, generating an extended demand for special design methods. In this paper a design model (Mechatronic Pillar Design Model) is presented, which assists the development engineer in the description and visualisation of couplings, interactions and dependencies between the mechatronic partial solutions and functions. All couplings between the different mechatronic domains are described in a superior coupling platform. Such product data models for the description of all relevant product information from the different stages of product life cycle play a crucial role for saving time and costs in the development process of innovative mechatronic products.
