Realitas Manufaktur Modern• Globalisasi - Setelah negara-negara terbelakang
(misalnya, Cina, India, Mexico) menjadi pemain utama dibidang manufaktur.
• Internasional outsourcing - Bagian dan produk yang telah dibuat di Amerika Serikat oleh perusahaan-perusahaan Amerika sekarang dibuat di luar negeri atau negara tetangga (di Meksiko dan Amerika Tengah).
• Lokal outsourcing - Penggunaan pemasok di AS untuk menyediakan suku cadang dan servis.
Realitas Manufaktur Modern
• Kontrak manufaktur - Perusahaan yang mengkhususkandiri di bidang manufaktur produk keseluruhan, bukanhanya komponen, dikontrak oleh perusahaan lain.
• Trend - terhadap sektor jasa dalam ekonomi AS.• Kualitas - harapan - Pelanggan, baik konsumen dan
korporasi, menginginkan produk dengan kualitas terbaik.
• Perlu untuk efisiensi operasional - produsen di A.S harus efisien dalam dalam operasi mereka untuk mengatasi keunggulan biaya tenaga kerja pesainginternasional
Pendekatan dan Teknologi Manufaktur Modern
• Otomasi - peralatan otomatis bukan tenaga kerja• Teknologi material handling - karena manufaktur biasanya
melibatkan suatu urutan kegiatan• Sistem Manufaktur - integrasi dan koordinasi beberapa
workstation otomatis atau manual• Manufaktur Fleksibel - untuk bersaing dalam kategori produk
volume-rendah/sangat beragam• Program kualitas - untuk mencapai kualitas tinggi yang
diharapkan oleh pelanggan saat ini• CIM - untuk mengintegrasikan desain, produksi, dan logistik• Produksi dengan hemat/ramping - bekerja lebih dengan
sumber daya yang lebih sedikit

Machining
Using a computer to make vector-based drawings. Using a computer controlled machine to
produce actual parts from a CAD drawing.
4 steps in any CAD/CAM operation:
1. Geometry Creation
2. Toolpath Creation
3. Post Processing
4. Machining the Final Part
1. Geometry Creation
• Draw it in CAD
• Convert a raster-based drawing
to vectors
• 3D scan of an existing object
Producing a vector-based drawing of the part you want to
make.
3 Ways to Create Geometry
• Mastercam - .mc9
• AutoCAD - .dwg
• Microstation - .dgn
• Drawing Exchange
Format - .dxf
1. Geometry Creation
- Using CAD
CAD programs make vector-based (mathematically
calculated) entities.
Some common CAD formats include:
• MS Paint - .bmp
• Internet images - .jpg
• Graphics editors - .gif
• Scanned images - .tif
1. Geometry Creation
- Raster to Vector conversionMost graphics programs make raster-based (dots on screen) images that must be changed to vectors so they can be used for CAM.
Some common raster formats include:
Raster
Vector
1. Geometry Creation
- 3D Scan
The scanner measures millions of points on an object and records them as co-ordinates which are then used to create the vector geometry.
Laser scanner… turns this object… into this geometry.
2. Toolpath Creation
• Type of tool used
• Cutting speeds, depths,and feed rates
• Material to be cut
• Rough and finish settings
Using the geometry to make a “road map” that the
cutting tool will follow in order to machine the part.
Several parameters must be set:
2. Toolpath Creation
- Verification
Most software will let you see a simulation of your part
being cut so you can verify that the toolpath information
is correct.
3. Post Processing
Translating the toolpath information into a programming
language called G-Code that controls the machine.
From toolpath…
…to G-Code.
The machine reads the G-Code and follows the toolpath to cut the part.
4. Machining the Final Part
From CAM definition, the application of CAM falls into two broad categories:

Control signals

Integrasi CAD/CAM/CAE to CIM
CIM
Computer-integrated manufacturing (CIM) is the use of computer techniques to integrate manufacturing activities. These activities encompass all functions necessary to translate customer needs into a final product. CIM starts with the development of a product concept that may exist in the marketing organization; includes product design and specification, usually the responsibility of an engineering organization; and extends through production into delivery and after-sales activities that reside in a field service or sales organization. Integration of these activities requires that accurate information be available when needed and in the format required by the person or group requesting the data. Data may come directly from the originating source or through an intermediate database according to Jorgensen and Krause. CIM systems have emerged as a result of the developments in manufacturing and computer technology. Computer-Integrated Manufacturing - organization, system, manager, definition, model, company, business, system, Cim origin http://www.referenceforbusiness.com/management/Bun-Comp/Computer-Integrated-Manufacturing.html#ixzz1ZUWiYrD1
areas of a CIM system
Part and product design. There are four phases that are crucial in part and product design. They include preliminary design, refinement, analysis, and implementation.
Tool and fixture design. Tooling engineers using computer-aided design (CAD) tools to develop the systems or fixtures that produce the parts.
Process planning. The process planner designs a plan that outlines the routes, operations, machines, and tools required. He or she also attempts to minimize cost, manufacturing time, and machine idle time while maximizing productivity and quality.
Programming of numerically controlled machines and material handling systems.
Production planning. There are two concepts used here including materials requirement planning (MRP) and machine loading and scheduling.
Machining. This is part of the actual manufacturing process, including turning, drilling, and face milling for metal removal operations.
Assembly. After they are manufactured, parts and subassemblies are put together with other parts to create a finished product or subassembly.
Maintenance. Computers can monitor, intervene, and even correct machine malfunctions as well as quality issues within manufacturing.
Quality control. This involves three steps including system design, parameter design, and tolerance design.
Inspection. This stage determines if there have been errors and quality issues during the manufacturing of the product.
Storage and retrieval. These tasks involve raw materials, work-in-process inventory, finished goods, and equipment.
