Description

Come share your experiences, stories, questions, and what you have learned in a safe, non-commercial environment. We seek to understand the state-of-the market, understand what companies have done that has or has not worked, documenting questions that MESA and the community can help answer. Overall, the goal is to accelerate each participant’s learning and progress toward Smart Manufacturing. 

Topic: Extending Model Based Enterprise into Production

The concept of a model-based enterprise (MBE) is to use comprehensive 3D models throughout the business as a sort of digital thread. Starting in product engineering, it is starting to extend as envisioned into production and even aftermarket.

• Does your company aim to build to an MBE? If so, why? 
• How are you building toward a digital thread, if not using MBE?
• What are the top challenges in building out models or digital threads that serve the whole enterprise?
• Have you found that the models from the design engineering teams have the product and manufacturing information (PMI) you need?
• Are you using QIF? Other standards to facilitate model development and sharing?
• How are AI and LLM affecting your ability to leverage product models in manufacturing? Can they help interpret models? Show engineers what PMI is missing?
