CDX - Answering a request
 You may receive a request from Danfoss through an e-mail or directly through CDX.  In order to answer an MDS request, you are required to:

1. Create a Material Datasheet (MDS) or Assign existing MDS to a request
 Datasheets can be components, semicomponents or materials (see manual)  If needed, follow detailed process on how to create a component / material in CDX

2. Submit an MDS to Danfoss

 Directly by searching for Danfoss account (based on which Danfoss segment you supply to) or

 By answering to a Danfoss MDS request received in CDX

Assign if you have already created requested MDS

CDX ­ WHAT IS AN MDS?

Material Datasheet (MDS)
 Can be thought of as a container consisting of various component and/or material related data.

MDS Types  There are several MDS Types in CDX

MDS Type

Description

Used in

Can have sub-MDS

Material

Represents a homogeneous structure ­ meaning if you took a vertical slice through the product, you would not see layers

Materials Semicomponents
Components

Material, Basic Substance

Semicomponent Similar to a Material, it represents a structure that will require further processing before it is assembled and given a final weight. Examples are a steel blank or a coated wire. Usage is by length, by volume, or by area.

Semicomponents, Components

Semicomponent, Material,
Basic Substance

Component

Used to represent an assembly Component that has a defined weight and is used in whole number quantities. Examples would be an engine block, a seat, etc. The weight of a Component MDS is defined at creation and
cannot be reduced in the structure.

Components

Component, Semicomponent,
Material, Basic Substance

 More detailed information on MDS and other areas of CDX reporting is available in the user manual at: CDX User Manual (cdxsystem.com)

How to ­ Create/Search for a Material MDS

 A Material is the lowest level of MDS a user can create
 At first, try to find a material you use in your components or supply to Danfoss in CDX database of standard materials
 If a material used in your component / supplied to Danfoss cannot be found in database of standard materials, proceed with Create Material.

Search in CDX Database of Standard Materials

There are multiple ways on how you can search for a standard material, if unsuccessful initially, try to
search using various fields.

How to add substances to a Material is described on
next slide
The Classification is mandatory for Materials

Create a Material

100% Declaration = FMD Component hierarchy with all materials and substances required

Assign name and internal part number for the created material

How to ­ Add Substance to a Material

 A Substance is a chemical element (e.g. Iron, Copper, etc.) or a compound ( acrylic resin, zinc oxide).
 Basic Substances are defined by either a specific Chemical Abstract Number (CAS#) or generically by function.
 Substances in CDX can be:
1. CAS-numbered Substance ­ Substance with a CAS# assigned to it, meaning it is a clearly defined Substance, example: Iron (CAS# 7439-89-6).
2. Pseudo-Substance ­ A pseudo-substance gives an accurate description of the substance or the substance group but does not have a CAS# assigned to it, example: "Acrylic resin". These substances are accepted as real substances.
3. Joker or Wild card ­ These substances do not define a specific substance. There is a limited number of wild cards available in the database and all have "system" in the CAS# field. An example is "Miscellaneous." It is not allowed to use a Joker or Wild card in place of a substance that is declarable or prohibited (restricted) on Danfoss Negative List

How to Add Substance to a Material

Repeat the step of adding substances until you have 100% of the material weight covered

There are multiple options on how you can describe content range

Make sure to perform system check and save your profress

Enter the Name or CAS#and click search, then apply the substance

When you release your finalized material internally, you may use it repeatedly in any components.

How to - Create Component MDS
Component represents a final part for which weight cannot be changed It can be a:
 low-complexity part containing a simple material (steel screw)  high-complexity part / product containing sub-components made of various materials (Controller)

Create a Component
Go to: MDS ­ New ­ Datasheet - COMPONENT

Add weight of the component Tolerance is not allowed

Next steps consists of assigning subcomponents and/or materials to the component we have created

100% Declaration = FMD Assign name and internal part number for the newly created Component
10 | Danfoss Material Data Reporting Guide 2024 ­ CDX

Now it is time to start assigning sub-components / materials Options are: · To refer to datasets that were already created (either
internally or by CDX (database of standard materials) · To Create new datasheet directly through ,,Node" · These steps are described in detail on the next slide

How to ­ Add Material/Component to a Component
This section describes how materials / sub-components can be assigned to a component · We can add multiple materials and / or components to a component while in edit mode · CDX system check can help us understand, which actions are required to finalize the MDS

Assigning Datasheets

You may refer to a Datasheet in your library or create a new one

When your component is ready for submission,

Useful Tips
 CDX License
 After registration, users can create datasheets, evaluate owned MDSs against legislations and submit to customers  Data sheets for own components can also be imported from other formats (IMDS, IPC1752, IPC1754 or IEC62474)  However, if you want to receive and review data sheets from your suppliers, CDX MDS License is required
 CDX System check
 Any time when editing your datasheet, you may execute a system check to see if any system / structure errors affect your component

 Confidential substances in CDX

 If you have confidential substances (your know-how) in your materials, you may mark a specific substance

,,confidential". Please be aware that substances marked as declarable/restricted in Danfoss Negative List cannot be

designated as 'confidential'."
