Design parameters for smart manufacturing innovation processes

Determination of Cost Parameters in Total Design for Manufacturing Parts

Design process is a key process in forming of product’s cost and if we notify to total design we will see all of the effective parameters in design activities. Design process is contented design planning, design inputs, design outputs, design review, design verification, design validation and design changes. This approach will help us to identify the cost parameters for managing, controlling an...

Manufacturing Innovation for Smartphones

Mobile phone manufacturers are now changing their main products from feature phones to smartphones. In addition, due to the stagnation of the global economy, the manufacturing industry in Japan is faced with six main issues: a strong yen, high corporation tax, a delay in trade liberalization, tight labor regulations, global warming, and a power shortage problem stemming from the accident at the...

Manufacturing – Opportunities for Innovation

Design and manufacturing interface modelling for manufacturing processes selection and knowledge synthesis in design

The research results presented in this paper are related to the specification of a method and models that tackle the problem of manufacturing processes selection and the integration, as soon as possible, of their constraints in the product modelling (i.e. information synthesis). This method is based on a skin and skeleton design/manufacturing interface model that ensures connection between desi...

Distributed Manufacturing (DM) - Smart Units and Collaborative Processes

Applications of the Hausdorff space and its mappings into tangent spaces are outlined, including their fractal dimensions and self-similarities. The paper details this theory set up and further describes virtualizations and atomization of manufacturing processes. It demonstrates novel concurrency principles that will guide manufacturing processes and resources configurations. Moreover, varying ...
