Terminology of Advanced Manufacturing Technology

1. Computer Aided Design (CAD) 2. CAM (Computer Aided Manufacture) Computer Aided Manufacturing 3. CAPP Computer Aided Process Planning. Computer Aided Process Procedure Design 4. Computer Aided Engineering Analysis of CAE (CAE) 5. ERP (Enterprise resource plan) Enterprise resource plan 6. PDM Product Data Management is a Product-centric technology that integrates Product-related information and processes in the production process of an enterprise through computer networks and databases. 7. business Process Reengineering (Business Process Re-engineering): fundamentally reconsiders and completely re-designs Business processes to achieve critical performance, such as cost, quality, service, and response speed, breakthroughs have been made. 8. BOM (Bill of Materials) is a structured part table describing accessories, including a list of all child accessories, parts, and raw Materials, and the number of materials required for manufacturing an assembly, such as working hours, materials, equipment, tooling, and workshops. 9. Short for the MRP Material Requirement Planning (Material Requirement Planning. MRP is a computer-aided production plan management system that integrates inventory management and production schedule. It aims to reduce inventory and provide manufacturing managers with material supply means to meet the needs of production plans. 10. Short for MRPII Manufacturing Resource Planning. It is developed based on the material demand plan (MRP. It not only prepares the production progress plan and material procurement plan of products and parts, but also obtains various financial information such as sales revenue, inventory capital usage and product cost from the system. Is a management information system that covers all production resources of an enterprise. 11. Short for SCM Supply Chain Management. The supply chain consists of suppliers, manufacturing plants, distribution networks, and customers. Supply chain management is the management of "Logistics", "capital flow", "information flow", and "value-added flow" and "workflow" in the supply chain. 12. Short for CRM Customer relationship Management. Automate and improve business processes related to customer relationships in the areas of sales, marketing, customer service, and support. 13. in finite element analysis, objects are divided into finite units, which are connected to each other through finite nodes. The units are considered as non-deformed rigid bodies, and the force between units passes through nodes, then, the energy principle is used to establish the matrix of each unit. After the input material characteristics, loads and constraints and other boundary conditions, the computer is used to calculate the mechanical properties of objects, such as deformation, stress, and temperature field, finally, the calculation results are analyzed to show the shape and stress distribution of the deformed object. 14. digital Control (NC) refers to the use of discrete digital information to Control the operation of machines and other devices) 15. CNC (Computer Numerical Control, Computer Numerical Control) refers to the use of a Computer as a Control device in a general Numerical Control system. 16. B2C is an enterprise-to-individual e-commerce method. It uses computer networks to allow consumers to directly participate in economic activities. 17. B2B is an enterprise's e-commerce method. The ordering, sales, delivery, and other transactions between the enterprise and the enterprise are all conducted in e-commerce mode. 18. based on the reorganization of enterprise processes (optimization), enterprise informatization enterprises utilize computer, network, and database technologies in a certain depth and breadth, control and integrated management of all information in the production and business activities of an enterprise to share and effectively use internal and external information of the enterprise, so as to improve the economic benefits of the enterprise and the ability to compete in the market. 19. Electronic Commerce refers to Electronic Commerce for the entire trade activity. In terms of coverage, it can be defined as: any form of commercial transactions by the transaction parties in electronic trading rather than through face-to-face exchanges or direct interviews; technically, it can be defined: e-commerce is a collection of multiple technologies, including data exchange (such as electronic data exchange and email), data acquisition (shared database, bulletin board), and automatic data capture (barcode). It refers to a system that uses information technology to process business activities. You can also have other names, such as Electronic Commerce, Net Commerce, Internet Commerce, Eeb Commerce, and Web shopping. 20. the essence of parallel engineering is to fully predict the "performance" of the product in the manufacturing, assembly, sales, use, after-sales service, decommission, and recycling stages at the product design stage ", discover possible problems and promptly modify and optimize them. 21. virtual manufacturing (also translated as "quasi-real manufacturing") is a Virtual reality technology (also translated as "magic" or "Spirit" technology) application in manufacturing. Virtual reality (VR) is a fictitious scenario based on audio and video technology and advanced Sensing Technology of multimedia computers. It gives people an immersive "real" experience. 22. Computer Integrated Manufacturing System (CIMS) is a new generation Manufacturing System under the conditions of modern information technology. It uses computers to assist in the integration of manufacturing systems, the design, process, production workshop, supply, marketing, and management departments of enterprises should be integrated into one organic whole with full and timely information exchange or information sharing so that they can operate in a coordinated manner, to ensure the overall benefits of enterprises and improve their competitiveness and viability. 23. agile Manufacturing (AM): refers to the ability of a Manufacturing enterprise to seize market opportunities and promptly and dynamically restructure the production system in the shortest time (compared with other enterprises) launch profitable, user-recognized, and high-quality products to the market. Connecting Local, remote, or even foreign manufacturing enterprises or manufacturing resources (equipment, product design, or process rules) with a computer network for a common purpose, coordination efforts. If CIMS focuses on integration and information exchange between various departments and links within an enterprise, agile manufacturing will develop to integration and information exchange between enterprises. An Enterprise connected by a computer network is translated into a "Virtual Enterprise" in some Chinese documents ". 24. Simulation Manufacturing a Manufacturing system and a Manufacturing process that imitates the Organizational Structure and Operating Mode of organisms is called Bionic Manufacturing ). In "Bionic Manufacturing", people not only learn from the natural nature, but also learn from the Organization and Operation Modes of their own inspector. If the mechanization and automation of the manufacturing process extends human physical strength and intelligence extends human intelligence, then the "Bionic Manufacturing" refers to the organizational structure and evolution of the human itself. 25. green manufacturing green manufacturing is a modern manufacturing model that comprehensively considers environmental impact and resource efficiency, the goal is to minimize the environmental impact (negative effect) and maximize resource utilization efficiency throughout the product lifecycle from design, manufacturing, transportation, use to decommission. Green manufacturing is the embodiment of sustainable development strategy in the manufacturing industry. In other words, green manufacturing is the sustainable development model of modern manufacturing industry. Obviously, the implementation of the sustainable development strategy is inseparable from the industrial restructuring of the manufacturing industry and the revitalization and development of enterprises. 26. Quick prototyping is a process from 3d to 2D (software discretization) and then from 2D to 3D (material accumulation. 27. 3D modeling CAD has three levels of modeling methods: wireframes, surfaces, and entities, that is, corresponding to the use of one-dimensional lines, A two-dimensional plane and a three-dimensional body are used to construct a shape.
