The variant design of existing products accounts for a considerable proportion in the process of new product design. Parametric design technology is an effective mean to reuse existing design solutions. However, the current design technology has been unable to meet the needs of product-level parametric rapid design. This paper proposes a product-level parametric management and rapid design method based on the idea of holographic modeling. Firstly, a mechanism to manage the parametric based model (PBM) is set up, and then the dimension management technology is put forward with analyzing the data structure of the base model, meanwhile, the dimension expression, classification, nomenclature and management rules are given. Then, the rapid design method based on PBM is studied, the rapid design principle of the 3D model is described, and the corresponding depth traversal of dimension process is given. At last, a parametric design system for compensator product is developed.
