            Abstract : 
This paper Integrated the advantages of modular product platform and parametric product platform, putting adaptable modular into the platform module. Proposed Adaptable Modular Product Platform concepts and Analysis the planning method of the platform. MAI(Module Variety Index) is adopted to analysis the planning process quantitatively to improve the objectivity of the product platform planning and adaptability.
