"tomorrow factory" module concept is one big characteristic, fully automated systems, continuous production of parts.Through external mechanical or manual control system to complete the process, the cohesion between the different components from the design of the machine when they set aside the automation interface.
Another company, AdditiveIndustriesSystem is its processing process is integrated with a high degree of automation, including powder management, parts cleaning, platform, removal, storage and other process, is happening inside the machine.Whether pieces, or a highly integrated, both methods to increase material manufacturing to the basis of intelligent production improve the modularity.
Virtual manufacturing software
Digital factory the coming second sign is, the more precise the virtual factory simulation software is possible.Add material manufacturing flexibility is very high, but not without restriction.Take Within Autodesk chuang cheng type design software, this software products can only be generated by increasing material make laser melting technology to manufacture, especially the powder bed and simulation optimization software ensures the design work can be further increased material manufacturing.
3 dsim software provides unprecedented insight metal solution, 3 d printing process for material made of American 3 dsim exaSIM simulation software basically created a multi - physics, many physical parameters of multi-level multi - scale high flux simulation of 3 d printing solutions, including optimizing the structure of supporting structure, parts distribution, direction of the parts and deformation compensation solution, increase the speed of increase of material manufacturing, precision.
Another GeonX virtual factory, as the software design engineer to analysis the influence of process parameters, more economic evaluation of hypothetical scenarios.And Materialise, Netfabb Polygonica software for 3 d modeling to increase material manufacturing seamless.
3 d printing digital factory is real
Digital factory the forthcoming third and the final sign was a large enterprises already in operation.In addition to the airbus 2016 plan, GEAvio aviation has bought in Italy 10 sets of EBM Arcam electron beam melting technology equipment and the EOS DMLS laser melting technology and equipment, and the integration of metal powder atomization unit and fully automated system for automatic production.
Now, more and more digital factory appeared, including one in Germany called bionic BionicProduction factory production, through SLMSolutions Conceptlaser and EOS of automated production equipment.
In China, xi ‘a(chǎn)n platinum force also Altair and simulation software, 3 d printing software Materialise combination, make metal 3 d printing process simpler, more convenient operation, process control is higher.
The complete automation - focus on automation equipment
