Intelligent manufacturing, based on next-generation information technology, permeates all stages of the industrial product lifecycle, including design, production, management, and service, and has the following characteristics. Features such as deep information self-sensing, intelligent optimization self-decision-making, and precise control self-execution enable intelligent, efficient, collaborative, green, and safe manufacturing. The overall goal of comprehensive development. Measurement and control equipment, as core equipment for realizing intelligent industrial processes, plays a crucial role throughout the product lifecycle, including production, sales, and maintenance. At each stage, there were problems such as unclear and non-standard user requirements, and inconsistent and incompatible formats of device description information from many different manufacturers. This has significantly impacted the electronic exchange and automatic processing of equipment information. To achieve information exchange and resource sharing at each stage of the production process, a complete, systematic, and rigorous system suitable for industrial processes is needed. A sophisticated classification and coding system for measurement and control equipment. This system needs to clearly define the structure and attributes of equipment description information, describing and expressing them in a unified format. It facilitates electronic exchange and automated processing. This document proposes a method for constructing a data dictionary for measurement and control equipment, standardizing the coding of measurement and control equipment categories, and structuring attributes. The description, through the classification of static attribute sets such as measurement and control node identifiers, document information, and equipment information, satisfies the needs of product design, production, sales, and... The intelligent requirements of operation and maintenance processes; by classifying dynamic attribute sets such as general status, diagnostic status, and measurement/feedback values, to meet the needs of equipment. The need for intelligent operation and management guides data sharing among equipment production, sales, and users, improving product operation and maintenance efficiency and technical level, and reducing costs. Low management costs provide a scientific basis for product lifecycle management. Industrial product data dictionary measurement and control equipment
