The vBOM is a visual BOM (Bill of Materials).
The vBOM takes much more effort to create than a BOM listing.
Requirements
- Every single part of the hardware being developed must be shown
- Every part has a direct link to that part's sourcing, such as an online store
- Link can be a text link or image link. If image link, make the outer image line blue to indicate that there is a link, as this is not visible just by looking at the picture.
- BOM and vBOM must be reconciled - the parts should match.
- BOM contains additional information. vBOM focuses on graphical representation for quick study of hardware make-up.
- A vBOM serves as a foundation for an Exploded Part Diagram and Exploded Part Animation in FreeCAD
Example
Note: parts with blue border are hyperlinked. Complete BOM and required numbers of parts, as well as parts completeness, can be obtained from this diagram.
