Case Study of 3D Similar Shape Search System Implementation at Toray Engineering Co., Ltd.
Accelerating "DX in Manufacturing" through the utilization of 3D similar shape search! Achieving improvements in QCD for manufacturing processes.
At Toray Engineering Co., Ltd., we have been promoting DX (Digital Transformation) across the company since October 2018 with the aim of consistent business reform! However, even after unifying our 3D CAD software, challenges remained, such as "the inability to easily search for data of similar shapes created in the past." This led to the perception that "it's faster to create new designs," resulting in a decline in QCD (Quality, Cost, Delivery). The similar shape search system "SS4M" allows not only for attribute value searches but also for searches based on shape features, enabling the reuse of parts and the development of design reuse, which has been evaluated as contributing to the improvement of QCD, leading to its adoption. [Case Overview] ■ Purpose of Implementation: Aiming to achieve both QCD improvement and business efficiency through design reuse. ■ Key Factors for Decision - Attribute information from CAD is carried over. - There is no need to create models for searching similar shapes. - Strengthening compatibility with other systems. *For more details, please refer to the PDF materials or feel free to contact us.
