| summary |
The next generation of computer aided tools should address the traditional role of engineering within a manufacturing organization, i.e. accurate communication ofmanufacturing specifications. Communication is the business of manufacturing engineering: translating design specifications into process plans and information such asestimating time and cost, process geometry creation and tolerance charting, determining tooling, and the recording of best practices. The integration of the product andprocess geometry with manufacturing knowledge is evolving through the use of computer aided process modeling and best practice sharing, to better serve production,which in turn delivers quality product at the right cost and tempo. These computer aided systems will have easy accessibility, inherent configuration control, and a"manufacturing language." |
