With the gradual application and promotion of 3D computer-aided design (CAD) technology, and the application of model-defined design (MBD) technology in manufacturing... Within enterprises, 3D digital models have gradually replaced 2D engineering drawings, becoming the core data carrier in the product development process. This shift... This change not only reflects the evolution of technological forms, but also signifies a profound transformation in product design methodologies and management models. Because 3D models are crucial in technological information... The data management and document control methods differ significantly from the traditional two-dimensional model in terms of information expression, data organization structure, and collaborative management. The process also faces systemic restructuring. To adapt to the development approach centered on 3D digital models, this system addresses the bottlenecks in product design data management within a 3D environment. The problem is to promote the popularization and engineering application of model-based definition technology, support the digital transformation and upgrading of my country's manufacturing industry, and formulate... GB/T 46848 "Requirements for the Management of Product Design Data in Technical Product Documentation". GB/T 46848 is based on the entire lifecycle of product design data. The management process is planned to consist of nine parts.

1.General Provisions. The purpose is to stipulate the general rules for the classification, compilation, archiving, copyright, and protection of product design data. It forms the foundation and framework for the entire series of standards.

2.Numbering Principles. The purpose is to define the general principles, basic requirements, and numbering methods for product design data files. This method ensures the consistency and traceability of data file identification.

1 Scope

GB/T 46848.5-2025 is the Chinese national standard covering the documents alongside the models - the specifications, calculations, reports and instructions, their identification and versioning, and their relationship to the parts and assemblies they describe. Part 5 of the GB/T 46848 series, first edition. It was issued on 31 December 2025 and has been in force since 1 April 2026, as a first edition. The document is under the responsibility of the Standardization Administration of China. This page is published from the official record of the 2025 edition; the clause text of a standard this recent is not yet in circulation, and the figures, limits and tables it contains are those of the document itself, delivered in full with the English translation.

This document specifies the classification and coding, creation and compilation, review and distribution, change management, storage and maintenance of product design data documents. Search and access. This document applies to document management in product design data management.
