Digital Manufacturing
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]
Three Dimensional Modeling
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
- Simulate manufacturing flow
Analysis
- calculate efficiency [2]
Tooling
- CNC
Benefits of Digital Manufacturing
- cost savings //Fill these categories in and add more too//
- efficiency
- speed/time
- respond to design changes
- environment [3]
Types of Digital Manufacturing
- additive[4]
- rapid
- on demand
