Cost management is not just a tool, but also a key process that helps ensure business success. A critical capability for managing cost is having an integrated view of cost across the value chain of product development and delivery. The challenge is that cost management processes and supporting systems and data are in silos and fragmented. The consequence of this fragmentation is a spiral effect of bad decisions and delays ultimately leading to an unsatisfactory ROI. Cost can be a complex topic within the manufactured products industries. Understanding the components of product cost and how to manage them is a key element of business success. PLM Page 2 CIMdata PLM Industry Summary solutions typically have a simple view of cost; it is an attribute on an item that can be rolled up in a BOM. A key question is “what cost?” Is it the prototype cost? Is it the cost at launch? Is it the cost at steady state production? The correct answer is probably yes to all of these questions, but it depends on context. An engineer working in product development focuses on target cost and how it relates to projected steady state production cost, while a manufacturing engineer may focus on the cost difference between launch and steady state production or capital cost of new production equipment. Someone working in supply chain or logistics may focus on transportation and fulfillment costs based on the production facility. As products have shorter lifecycles, the margin at each state of the product lifecycle can be key to ultimate profitability. Figure 1 shows some of the cost categories that can be measured over the product lifecycle. Cost is a key attribute used for most product related decisions. It is used as a discriminator for many decisions including make versus buy, price versus quality, and price versus feature. Unfortunately, getting the right cost information to support product decisions can be difficult. Three key pain points in cost management include: Getting access to all the right cost data at the right time. In most organizations costs are considered privileged information and access is controlled. On top of this, data is stored in many repositories separated by organizational boundaries and software solution silos. In addition to enterprise solutions most organizations have a lot of cost and related data stored within a spreadsheet in a relatively unstructured format. While manufacturing cost is generally well understood, the cost of a part or product over its lifecycle usually is not as well understood. As companies move to platform or modular architectures determining how to allocate costs from the platform to saleable products is difficult and there is rarely consensus on how to do it.

Izamshah2 1Faculty of Engineering Technology, Universiti Teknikal Malaysia Melaka, Hang Tuah Jaya, 76100 Durian Tunggal, Melaka, Malaysia 2Faculty of Manufacturing Engineering, Universiti Teknikal Malaysia Melaka, Hang Tuah Jaya, 76100 Durian Tunggal, Melaka, Malaysia Abstract. The ultimate aim of this study was to investigate the effect of surface finish for a machined part which was programmed by two popular Computer Aided Design / Computer Aided Manufacturing (CAD/CAM) software namely as Catia V5 and Delcam (Delcam for Solidworks - DFS) by using scanned data obtained from one of the Reverse Engineering methods namely Three-Dimensional (3D) scanning process. A crank case cover was chosen as the physical part to be scanned and machined because of its sculptured shape and complex geometry. In this study, simultaneous three-axis machining programs were created and machined using three- axis Computer Numerical Control (CNC) Milling machine; DMC 635 Ecoline. Furthermore, all machining parameters are remained the same for both programs. Initially, the physical crank case cover gone through the first process called scanning process using a 3D scanner; model 700 CX in order to capture the 3D CAD data in points cloud form. The raw scanned data then gone through editing process to obtain better surfaces using Geomagic Studio software. Moreover, the stable and edited CAD model then undergone CAD/CAM programming process for both mentioned software respectively.

  • 238/1 New Adaptive Machining Methods for the Foundry Industry
    New adaptive machining methods for the foundry industry Peter Dickin Delcam, UK. Abstract Computer-based methods for machining and inspection are well established in the foundry industry. More recently, these two technologies have been brought closer together in a new development – adaptive machining. This approach uses a combination of software, such as Delcam’s PowerMILL CAM system and PowerINSPECT software, to give new solutions to a range of challenging manufacturing problems. The programming of most machining operations is based around knowing three things: the position of the workpiece on the machine, the starting shape of the material to be machined, and the final shape that needs to be achieved at the end of the operation. Adaptive machining techniques allow successful machining when at least one of those elements is unknown, by using in-process measurement to close the information gaps in the process chain. Key words (5 maximum). Machining; inspection; in-process measurement 238/1 Introduction Computer-based methods for machining and inspection are well established in the foundry industry. While a small number of companies still rely on programming on the machine tool control or still use copy milling, the great majority now use a CAM system to produce CNC code for their machining operations. Similarly, inspection against CAD data is increasingly used for quality control instead of inspection against drawings. With component designs always becoming more and more complex, these computer-based techniques are often the only practical way to undertake their manufacture. Despite the many benefits these systems bring, there are a range of operations that still remain very challenging, even for companies using the latest technology.
