Digital Manufacturing
[edit]I don't know what digital manufacturing is.
Is that where you use your fingers?
Digital Manufacturing is an integrated approach to manufacturing that is centered around a computer system. The primary processes involved in digital manufacturing include three dimensional modeling and simulation, analysis, and automated tooling.[1] This enables production digitally by utilizing digital modeling, machining, resource and maintenance throughout the entire product lifecycle. [2]
Three Dimensional Modeling
[edit]Manufacturing engineers use 3D modeling software to design the tools and machinery necessary for their intended applications. The software allows them to design the factory floor layout and the production flow. This technique lets engineers analyze the manufacturing process and to search for ways to increase efficiency in production before any production even begins.
Simulation
[edit]- Simulate manufacturing flow
Analysis
[edit]- calculate efficiency [3]
Tooling
[edit]- CNC
Benefits of Digital Manufacturing
[edit]- cost savings //Fill these categories in and add more too//
- efficiency
- speed/time
- respond to design changes
- environment [4]
Types of Digital Manufacturing
[edit]Rapid
[edit]On Demand
[edit]Cloud-based design and manufacturing
[edit]Cloud-Based Design (CBD) refers to a model that incorporates social network sites, cloud computing, and other web technologies to aid in cloud design services. This type of system must be cloud computing-based, be accessible from mobile devices, and must be able to manage complex information. AutoDesk 123D is an example CBD. [6]
Cloud-Based Manufacturing (CBM) refers to a model that utilizes the access to open information from various resources to develop reconfigurable production lines to improve efficiency, reduce costs, and improve response to customer needs.
