Abstract Scope |
It has become increasingly important to provide training that keeps pace with industry. The Smart Manufacturing Digital Thread (SMDT) project aims to define and implement processes to speed up process development and replication. The SMDT is an example of optimized Training Technology Transfer that can be applied to key technologies like robotic metal forming.
The current SMDT project is currently focused on Automation and Robotics, Digital Thread, and Laser Materials Processing.
The SMDT project showcases how to scale technology training to meet workforce demands. Key components include making the training accessible and flexible, and engaging a workforce that may never have considered advanced manufacturing as a career option. |
