Digital factory
{{notability|date=April 2017}}
A digital factory uses digital technology for modeling, communications and to operate the manufacturing process. This arrangement of technology allows managers to configure, model, simulate, assess and evaluate items, procedures and system before the factory is constructed. The digital factory gives answers for configuration, design, screen and control of a production system.{{cite web|url={{google books |plainurl=y |id=z2-iNHdxxdsC|page=240}} |title=Digital Factory for Human-oriented Production Systems: The Integration of ... |date= |accessdate=2017-04-09|page=240}}{{Cite journal|last1=Centobelli|first1=P.|last2=Cerchione|first2=R.|last3=Murino|first3=T.|title=Layout and Material Flow Optimization in Digital Factory|url=http://www.ijsimm.com/Full_Papers/Fulltext2016/text15-2_223-235.pdf|journal=International Journal of Simulation Modelling|year=2016 |volume=15|issue=2|pages=223–235|doi=10.2507/ijsimm15(2)3.327|doi-access=free}}{{Cite book|last=Kuhn|first=W.|title=Proceedings of the 2006 Winter Simulation Conference |chapter=Digital Factory - Simulation Enhancing the Product and Production Engineering Process |date=2006-12-01|chapter-url=http://ijssst.info/Vol-07/No-7/Paper3.pdf|pages=1899–1906|doi=10.1109/WSC.2006.322972|isbn=1-4244-0501-7 |s2cid=5612803 }}
Operation
Specialists can plan items, check and dissect assembly, manufacture-ability and serviceability. They can prepare automated and manual procedures for operating the facility. Procedures are confirmed and improved and plan mistakes remedied before beginning operations.
