Digital Manufacturing & Simulation

By creating and verifying various scenarios for producing products in the virtual working space (computer), you can assess and analyze possible problems that can occur in actual production, so that the optimal production condition can be resolved and the set up time can be reduced.

What to build it, How to build it, Where/when to build it

Digital manufacturing area

  • Digital manufacturing area
  • - Defining the process of productions. (Pert Chart, Gantt Chart used.)
  • - Define Product, Resource in the process. (Cost Estimate & Line Balancing)
  • - Creating simulation model and verifying production plans. / Simulation (deriving alternatives.)
  • Detailed process verification
  • - Set up the detailed plan for verified production processes based on the unit process. (Pert Chart, Gantt Chart used.)
  • - Using the 3D Data, verify the product assembly procedures with neighboring devices, tools, robots and humans.
  • - Apply the verified information once again to the production plan verification system (play the role of sub system for verification.)
  • On-site connection verification
  • - Assign electrical/air pressure or hydraulic pressure operation logics.
  • - Connect the program running in the on-site PLC CPU to the 3D Data for automation logic verification.
  • - Supports connection between the five major makers providing OPC communication and other makers' PLC and CAD data.
  • Simulation
  • Quest (Production simulation)

    Production simulation

    Main functions

    • - Unit production ability measurement/analysis.
    • - Production plan, inventory policy establishment.
    • - Bottleneck assessment, Layout operation policy establishment.
    • - Various performance measurement.

    Expected outcomes

    • - Production line optimization.
    • - Reduction of investment to machinery and man power.
    • - Productivity improvement.
    • - Speedy decision making /reduced preparation time for manufacturing.
