Abstract

To ensure competitiveness in today's automotive market, growing emphasis is being laid on the collaboration of disparate engineering activities in manufacturing in the automotive industry. By applying virtual manufacturing, diverse engineering activities such as design evaluation, process & material planning, production flow analysis, and ergonomic analysis can be brought together to be performed in a single integrated model, viz., a digital factory. In this paper, we have suggested a procedure, consideration and expected effects for paint shop of automotive company. Therefore, we constructed a digital factory for a paint shop for an automotive company. By applying the digital factory to manufacturing engineering, it is expected that time and cost savings can be realized in many manufacturing engineering work in planning and new product development processes.
