Computer Integrated Manufacturing

This document discusses computer-integrated manufacturing (CIM). CIM uses computers to control the entire manufacturing process. It originated at MIT in the 1950s and has evolved to include NC programming, DNC programming, CNC programming, robotics, and flexible manufacturing systems (FMS). CIM offers benefits like improved quality, reduced errors and inventory, shorter flow times, and increased productivity. Key components of CIM include CAD, CAE, CAM, CAPP, CAQ, PPC, and ERP systems. Devices involved are robotics, computers, software, controllers, and networks. Important CIM techniques are FMS, ASRS, AGV, GT, and SFC.

DEFINITION OF CIM
Computer-integrated manufacturing (CIM) is the
manufacturing approach of using computers to
control the entire industry process.
HISTORY OF CIM

 Founded by MASSACHUSETTS INSTITUDE OF


TECHNOLOGY (MIT) at USA.
 1950’s – NC Programming

 1962 – DNC Programming

 1970’s – CNC Programming, CMM and robotics

 1980’s – FMS

 NOW CIM
WHY NEED
AUTOMATION?
POTENTIAL BENEFITS OF CIM
Improved quality

Reduce errors

Shorter flow time

Reduced inventory levels

Improved schedule performance

Greater flexibility

Increase in manufacturing productivity

Maintain database.
ROLE OF COMPUTER İN
MANUFACTURİNG
Reduction of design costs by 15-30%;

Reduction of the in-shop time of a


part by 30-60%;

Increase of productivity by 40-70%;

Better product quality, reduction of


scrap 20-50%.
SUBSYSTEMS IN CIM
CAD (Computer-Aided Design) involves the use of
computers to create design drawings and product models.

CAE (Computer-Aided Engineering) is the broad usage


of computer software to aid in engineering tasks .

CAM (Computer-Aided Manufacturing) is the use of


computer software to control machine tools and related
machinery in the manufacturing of work pieces.

CAPP (Computer-Aided Process Planning) is the use of


computer technology to aid in the process planning of a part
or product, in manufacturing.
CONT…
CAQ (Computer-Aided Quality Assurance) is the
engineering application of computers and computer
controlled machines for the inspection of the quality of
products.

PPC (Production Planning and Control) A production


(or manufacturing) planning and control (MPC) system is
concerned with planning and controlling all aspects of
manufacturing, including materials, scheduling
machines and people, and coordinating suppliers and
customers.

ERP (Enterprise Resource Planning) systems integrate


internal and external management information across
an entire organization, embracing finance/accounting,
manufacturing, and sales and services.

CONCLUSION

Computer-integrated manufacturing (CIM) is


the manufacturing approach of using computers to control
the entire production process.

This integration allows individual processes to exchange


information with each other and initiate actions.

Through the integration of computers, manufacturing can


be faster and less error-prone, although the main advantage
is the ability to create automated manufacturing processes
