Overview
The Computer-Integrated Manufacturing Systems (CIMs) laboratory houses a range of advanced digital equipment, including high speed graphics workstations and CAD/CAM systems, optical scanners, rapid prototyping (additive manufacturing / 3D printing) machines, CNC machines, laser cutting and engraving machines, and ICT and simulation tools. It supports teaching and research in design and manufacturing, particularly in the areas of:
- Virtual prototyping and virtual manufacturing for rapid product development
- Cloud-based design and manufacturing
- Multi-material additive manufacturing
- Direct digital manufacturing
- Automatic identification and data acquisition in manufacturing
- Process planning and concurrent engineering
- Collaborative manufacturing and engineering
- Flexible and agent-based intelligent manufacturing
- Production planning for green manufacturing
- Enterprise resource planning
