Digital Virtual Manufacturing is a technology to facilitate effective product developments and agile productions by digital models representing the physical and logical schema and the behavior of real manufacturing systems including products, process, manufacturing resources and plants. A digital virtual factory as a well-designed and integrated environment is essential for successful applications of this technology. In this research, we constructed a sophisticated digital virtual factory of the shipbuilding company's section steel shop by 3-D CAD and virtual manufacturing simulation. This digital virtual factory can be applied for diverse engineering activities in design, manufacturing and control of the real factory.

Digital Manufacturing is a technology to facilitate effective product developments and agile productions by digital environments representing the physical and logical schema and the behavior of real manufacturing system including manufacturing resources, processes and products. A digital virtual factory as a well-designed and integrated environment is essential for successful applications of this technology. In this research, we constructed a sophisticated digital virtual factory by measuring and 3-D CAD modeling using parametric methods. Specific parameters of each objects were decided by object-oriented schema of the digital factory. It is expected that this method is very useful for constructions of a digital factory, and helps to manage diverse information and re-use 3D models.

Nowadays, manufacturing industries undergo constantly growing pressures for global competitions, and they must shorten time and cost in product development and production to response varied customers' requirements. Digital virtual manufacturing is a technology that can facilitate effective product development and agile production by using digital models representing the physical and logical schema and the behavior of real manufacturing systems including products, processes, manufacturing resources and plants. For successful applications of this technology, a digital virtual factory as a well-designed and integrated environment is essential. In this paper, we developed a new classification and coding system for effective managements of digital virtual factory objects, and implement a supporting application to verify and apply it. Furthermore, a digital virtual factory layout management system based on the classification and coding system has developed using XML, Visual Basic.NET and FactoryCAD. By some case studies for automotive general assembly shops of a Korean automotive company, efficient management of factory objects and reduction of time and cost in digital virtual factory constructions are possible.

Digital Virtual Manufacturing is a technology facilitating effective product developments and agile productions via digital models representing the physical and logical schema and the behavior of real manufacturing systems. A digital virtual factory as a well-designed and integrated environment is essential for successful applications of this technology. In this research, we construct a sophisticated digital virtual factory for the section steel shop in a Korean shipbuilding company by 3-D CAD and virtual manufacturing simulation. The NIST-AMRF CIM hierarchical model and workflow analysis using IDEF methodology are also applied. This digital virtual factory can be applied for diverse engineering activities in design, manufacturing and control of the real factory, and improvements in quality of engineering and savings in time from design to production in shipbuilding are possible.

Digital Manufacturing is a technology facilitating effective developments and agile productions of the product via digital computer models representing physical and logical schema and the behavior of the real manufacturing systems including manufacturing resources, environments and products. For the successful application of this technology, a digital factory as a well-designed and an integrated environment is essential. In this paper, we constructed the sophisticated digital factory of a Korean automotive company's body shop, and conducted precise simulations of unit cell, lines and the whole factory for the collision check, the production flow analysis and the off-line programming. We expect that this digital factory of the body shop helps us achieve great savings in time and cost for many manufacturing preparation activities of the new car development.

To shorten product development time and cost, integrated information managements of product, manufacturing process and resource are essential. In the area of material addressing, process engineers should make their decisions in the manner of collaborative engineering in order to reduce the manufacturing preparation time and cost in the product development and production. A digital virtual factory which is an united digital model of entire factory could be very useful for these areas. In this paper, the digital virtual factory is constructed and used for material addressing and analysis of an automotive general assembly shop. We developed the material addressing system for automotive general assembly shops using digital virtual factory models and nesting algorithms, and applied it to realistic problems of a Korean automotive company as an convenient and effective way of material addressing.

In this paper, the digital model of the micro-factory has been established, inspected and evaluated by progress of assembly, manipulation and examination. The new paradigm of the system analysis is realized by digital simulation of the factory. The digital manufacturing system of the micro-factory was simulated through UML(Unified Modeling Language) with the object-oriented logical model analysis method and then the micro lens module assembly system was simulated with MST(Micro System Technology) Application Module.

Purpose: This study aims to identify the relationship between SMEs' digital transformation capabilities, smart factory utilization, and management performance. It also aims to suggest how companies strategically utilize smart factories to achieve a competitive advantage and sustainable growth through empirical analysis of differences in innovation resistance and organizational characteristics. Research design, data, and methodology: This study Implement for SME's building smart factories did. The survey was conducted for 90days from October 1st, 2023 to December 31th, 2023. Total of 210 surveys were collected, and 186 surveys, excluding ones with missing value and outliers (64 surveys), were used. Results: The results of the empirical analysis based on previous research are as follows. First, digital transformation capabilities such as digital technology, digital leadership, and digital strategy affect smart factory utilization. Second, smart factory use affects operational performance. Third, innovation resistance has a moderating effect in the relationship with digital transformation capabilities, smart factory utilization, and management performance. Fourth, organizational characteristics have a moderating effect in the relationship with digital transformation capabilities, smart factory utilization, and management performance. Conclusions: Explore strategic ways to improve your organization's digital transformation capabilities. It is necessary to establish a strategy to make organizational members aware of the necessity and importance of introducing a new system through centralization of the organization.

Recent manufacturing system requires development on new production technology to enable prompt manufacturing of diverse products. Most of the researchers have been working on micro-factory. Especially, focus on manufacturing of micro parts. Present manufacturing system consumes excessive resources in the form of energy and space to manufacture the micro parts. In this study, the micro lens module assembly system was modeled, analyzed with MST(Micro System Technology) Application Module and simulated through UML Language (Unified Modeling Language) with object-oriented logical model analysis method. Digital model of micro-factory was modeled, to execute the new paradigm of digitalization on products, resources and processes of micro-factory.

Existing manufacturing system has consumed too much energy, space and resource in micro parts manufacturing. To improve this, micro factory system is suggested. But it is difficult to get the high reliability in the assembly, production and inspection of the minute parts because the construction of the micro factory has been started just before. In this study, we will build the digital manufacturing simulation on the micro factory's process and verify the production and assembly process using this simulation.
