DARPA DICE Manufacturing Optimization

Abstract

The goal of the Manufacturing Optimization (MO) system is to facilitate a two tiered team approach to the product/process development cycle where the product design is analyzed by multiple manufacturing engineers, and the product/process changes are traded concurrently in the product and process domains. The system will support Design for Manufacturing and Assembly (DFMA) with a set of tools to model the manufacturing processes, and manage tradeoffs across multiple processes. The subject of this report is the technical work accomplished during the second quarter of the contract. This report describes the development efforts of the MO Functional Requirements and Measure of Performance Report. The PWB EXPRESS Models are based on the Raytheon Automated Placement and Interconnect Design System (RAPIDS) Structured Database (RSD) and the RAPIDS Library Database (RLD).
