Using data to optimize design for manufacturing

00:01

Data can be used to optimize design for manufacturing or DFM.

00:06

Engineers can collect and analyze data on various materials and

00:10

manufacturing processes to determine which combinations yield the best results.

00:14

In terms of product quality, cost and efficiency.

00:18

Data driven decisions can lead to the selection of

00:21

materials and processes that are more suitable for DFM.

00:25

Digital literacy and data skills are needed for the following aspects of DFM.

00:30

One

00:31

material selection,

00:33

two

00:34

manufacturing process selection and improvement.

00:38

Three product life cycle management,

00:41

four simulation and modeling,

00:44

five communication and collaboration.

00:50

Engineers leverage digital tools and databases to

00:53

compare materials based on mechanical properties,

00:56

cost and environmental impact,

00:59

necessitating data skills for informed decision making.

01:02

Once design and performance requirements are established,

01:05

data aids in selecting materials by providing insights into heat resistance,

01:10

weight capacity and environmental friendliness.

01:14

Data literacy is a valuable skill enabling

01:17

engineers to collect and interpret relevant data.

01:21

Utilizing digital tools engineers can weigh multiple materials,

01:25

optimizing choices to enhance product performance,

01:27

reduce costs and promote sustainability.

01:31

Specialized digital tools,

01:32

assist engineers and designers in comparing and

01:35

selecting optimal materials for their specific cases.

01:41

As stated in the previous slide,

01:43

digital literacy empowers engineers to collect

01:46

and analyze data from manufacturing equipment,

01:49

sensors, enabling real time adjustments for process improvement.

01:53

We can gather data from various sources including

01:56

sensors,

01:58

equipment,

01:59

quality control

02:01

supply chain

02:02

material, databases,

02:04

equipment specifications

02:06

and past production records based on product requirements.

02:10

And now applying advanced data analytics and machine

02:13

learning to identify patterns and areas for improvement.

02:17

This can optimize manufacturing processes by

02:20

choosing the most suitable process

02:23

considering material properties

02:25

cost

02:26

production volume

02:28

and quality requirements,

02:30

implementing real time monitoring and data driven decision
