Learn about the presentation
From basic data reporting to full-blown digital twins of machine tools, ships, planes, or racecars, contemporary manufacturing often forces together production engineers and IT departments to address vague, ambiguous requirements. The landscape for manufacturers is rapidly changing, but maybe not in obvious, transformative ways. Iterative design and testing, systems thinking, rapid prototyping, and continuous improvement are all tried and true approaches to manufacturing, and can be applied in the digital realm as they are for physical products. This presentation will use the example of a desktop automated machining cell and associated digital twin(s) to illustrate how any manufacturer can make immediate, lasting gains in foundational areas like data connectivity and management without huge commitments of time or dollars.
