Digital manufacturing provides students with basic principles of the methodologies, principles, technologies and strategies needed to design and manage operations in the digital era.
The course will describe how manufacturing evolved in time, through the different industrial revolutions, and how it fits into companies' value chain. We will introduce the main concepts of operations management and the information set to be exchanged within manufacturing processes and between manufacturing and the other corporate processes (such as sales, logistics, R&D, etc.).
Students will be also exposed to the basic principles of process optimisation, which are nowadays becoming integral part of the digital tools used in operations. The architecture of the digital infrastructure used for operations will be explained, introducing participants to its different software and hardware features.
Last, the course will explore the latest technologies used in operations, such as digital twins, IoT, AI, computer vision, robotics virtual and mixed reality, explaining their opportunities and limits. A remote tour of a digital model factory will enable the practical understanding of all the theoretical concepts introduced.
