Information management and process interoperability

T54 Information management and process interoperability CU IVF MSC OSAIThis task addresses the communication of information in the AM supply chain as well as the storage of generated diagnostic and quality assurance data during the post processing The data will be stored as to be readily available for data analytics and process feedback in T61 A wide range of data will be collected throughout the pilot line both online and offline eg machining parameters on the machine process monitoring localized temperature profiles acoustic information metrology station digital images This task aims at identifying and characterizing the range of data types standard inputs eg manufacturing process and parts quality data and standard outputs eg diagnostics results that will be produced at applying data preprocessing techniques that will facilitate the knowledge extraction processes T33 and data analytics T61 and at providing data storage solutions andstandard interfaces for both input and output data to enable efficient feedback at different stages of the pilot linesIn those cases when different features are identified to exist within the specimens using realtime insitu techniques highaccuracy NDT will be performed on reference samples using an offline approach While a specific database will be implemented for the pilot lines developed in the project the aim will be todesign a standard structure that would be transferable to other similar pilot lines and which would ultimately allow future information sharing between various pilot lines in Cloudbased systems
