  • © 2021, IFIP International Federation for Information Processing.With Industry 4.0 and the changing dynamics of markets, assisting in designing, modifying, or improving manufacturing systems at different scales becomes necessary, both in large manufacturers and SMEs. Enterprise modelling architectures support the specific description of various layers to assist in the product lifecycle development by reusing general models that can be tailored to particular scenarios through instantiation processes. This work improves the development of manufacturing systems through partial and particular instantiated models based on the Integrated Product, Process and Manufacturing System Development reference framework. Furthermore, this model benefits from the characterization of different industrial sectors to collect tools and activities to avoid developing manufacturing systems anew. In this way, the proposed solution is to create partial models to assist in the design of different manufacturing scenarios: (i) product transfer, (ii) technology transfer and (ii) manufacturing system design. Case studies are instantiated to prove the effectiveness of this framework, in which the particular project activities are developed, and finally, the results assessed by qualitative and quantitative parameters to allow performance measurement.
