A Model for Tool Life Cost Management in Digital Manufacturing
摘要
Big changes are taking place in the industry, caused by the influence of market demands (flexibility and personalization of products), and the development and application of IC technologies in it (digitalization and application of the Industry 4.0 model). That is why today factories are built on new postulates (networked factory entities) with a digital product model that connects business, engineering and production processes, as well as supply chains. This paper deals with an important aspect of digital manufacturing, which is related to tool life cost management (TLCM), in a real factory from the metal industry. It outlines the TLCM concept for this factory, with examples of CAD, CAPP, CAM, ERP and MES models in manufacturing, as well as CPS in manufacturing.
