Implementation of Machining on the Cloud: A Case Study in PLM Environment
2016
This paper focuses on the implementation of cloud solutions in the field of machining which is encompassed by the much larger field of manufacturing. Machining is the process of material removal to transform raw materials into final desired shape while manufacturing is the creation and assembly of components and finished products for sale. With the advent of new technologies, a lot of advancements have been made in the field of machining in the last few decades. We are seeing an explosive growth in the field of information technology and the world is more connected than ever before. The current scenario calls for manufacturers to change the way they perform operations by using cloud services rather than installing and customizing the softwares within their own organizations. This paper examines the intersection of the fields of machining and cloud computing to propose solutions for revolutionizing the way machining is done. After performing tests that involve machining simulations and creation of a collaborative working space to exchange data, we can conclude that it is completely feasible to perform machining operations on cloud. The findings of this study give an insight into the adoption of cloud technology in the machining field and provides useful information to industry professionals wishing to implement cloud solutions in their businesses and to scientists wishing to undertake work in this field.
