The invention relates to the computer-supported selection of the respective optimal machine component for an application. In the selection, empirical values are collected in order to create a continuously improving system. According to the invention, in order to achieve this: a) features of the machine component and influencing values determining these features are determined; b) possible applications for the machine component are determined; c) for the machine components, the influencing values to be taken into consideration in the application-related selection and designing of the machine component are determined, to which the machine component is subject during application; d) in practical application or via experimental investigations, statements relating to the influencing variables are collected, and information relating to the interactions of the influencing variables is determined from the collected statements; e) the information determined in working step d) is stored as machine-readable data in a database; f) the influencing variables arising during application are formulated for the selection of the machine component that is suitable for the provided application; g) the application and the associated influencing variables are stored as input variables in a selection algorithm running on a computer, which selects the machine component that is optimally suitable for the application, taking into consideration the input variables based on the information stored in the database; and h) the machine component selected in working step g) is supplied for the provided application. |
