What is IMDS? 什么是IMDS？

Suppliers in the automotive supply chain record material data into an online data repository called the IMDS, or the International Material Data System. Every part in every car produced by every participating auto manufacturer will have an entry on the database listing size, weight, and materials, and customers are able to follow parts back to OEMs all the way up to the supplier.
汽车供应链中的供应商将材料数据记录到称为IMDS或国际材料数据系统的在线数据存储库中。每个参与的汽车制造商生产的每辆汽车的每个零件都将在数据库中列出尺寸，重量和材料，客户可以跟踪零件，一直追溯到原始设备制造商，直到供应商。

IMDS began in 2000 as a joint development of Audi, BMW, Daimler, EDS, Ford, Opel, Porsche, Volkswagen, and Volvo. Roughly two decades later, IMDS is used by major automobile manufacturers and heavy-duty commercial vehicle manufacturers around the world, and is considered to be the global industry standard for the automotive industry.
IMDS始于2000年，是奥迪，宝马，戴姆勒，EDS，福特，欧宝，保时捷，大众和沃尔沃的联合开发。大约二十年后，IMDS被全球主要汽车制造商和重型商用车制造商使用，被认为是汽车行业的全球行业标准。

Suppliers higher up in the chain must define the materials in the product (component). The composition of a component can be:
供应链中较高的供应商必须定义产品（组件）中的材料。组件的组成可以是：

• Composed of subcomponents and its materials and basic substances,
  由子成分及其材料和基本物质组成，
• One material and its basic substances, or
  一种材料及其基本物质，或
• Any combination of the two.
  两者的任意组合。

Benefits of IMDS IMDS的好处

IMDS helps to track materials as they move down the supply chain from supplier to customer, and there are several advantages to this centralized system:
IMDS有助于跟踪材料从供应商到客户的供应链，这种集中式系统有几个优点：

• It aids in preventing the use of hazardous and/or banned materials in vehicles.
  它有助于防止在车辆中使用危险和/或违禁材料。
• Laws and regulations are constantly changing, and in the case of new restrictions or updated exposure limits, it’s easy to use IMDS and identify where a particular material or substance is being used.
  法律法规在不断变化，在新的限制或更新的暴露限值的情况下，很容易使用IMDS并确定特定材料或物质的使用地点。
• The specific breakdown of materials and compositions is important when a vehicle is being recycled and for the European Union, material data sheets help dismantler companies meet the goals of the ELV Directive.
  当车辆被回收时，材料和成分的具体分解非常重要，对于欧盟来说，材料数据表有助于拆解机公司实现ELV指令的目标。
• Even if data entry in IMDS is not always legally required, it’s frequently a contractual requirement of other manufacturing systems, like the Production Part Approval Process.
  即使IMDS中的数据输入并不总是法律要求的，但它通常是其他制造系统的合同要求，例如生产零件批准流程。

Companies will need to register for a unique company identification number before submitting data, but the database can be accessed from the internet with no special software needed.
在提交数据之前，公司需要注册一个唯一的公司识别号，但可以从互联网访问数据库，而无需特殊软件。
