Modern manufacturing is rapidly adopting model-based definition (MBD). When employing an MBD strategy, the CAD model becomes more than the nominal to which all parts are measured and inspected against. MBD keeps the all-important digital thread intact—from design to manufacturing to inspection and quality reporting.

“Metrology and its relationship to manufacturing is rapidly evolving,” Ken Woodbine, president, Wilcox Associates, a brand of Hexagon Metrology (North Kingstown, RI), recently observed. “We are seeing larger quantities and faster speeds of measurement data collection. The next challenge is what to do with all that data.”

The classic manufacturing conundrum is how to make products quicker, cheaper, and better.

Computed tomography (CT) scan data analysis can help trace failures and performance shortcomings back to their design roots.

Datanomix and ProShop ERP, a supplier of digital manufacturing management systems, today announced a partnership to help manufacturers deliver more insights from their operational data.

CAD/CAM software aids racing engine block shop.

CAD/CAM improves generative design, print simulation, path programming and process control in additive manufacturing.

AI software enables the company to capture relevant runtime metadata and put it into context to create useful information in real time.

Metal diffusion bonding is an essential joining method for achieving a high-purity interface when two similar metals require superior structural integrity. The process involves applying high temperature, and pressure to metals mated together in a hot press causes the atoms on solid metallic surfaces to intersperse and bond.

Key steps are virtual twins and real relationships.
