Sim-PROCESD: Simulated-Production Resource for Operations and Conditions Evaluation to Support Decision-making

Data provided by  National Institute of Standards and Technology

Sim-PROCESD is a discrete event simulation package written in Python that is designed to model the behavior of discrete manufacturing systems. Specifically, it focuses on asynchronous production lines. It also provides functionality for modeling the degradation and maintenance of machines in these systems. Sim-PROCESD provides class definitions for manufacturing devices/components that can be configured by the user to model various real-world manufacturing systems.

Thermal Drift Monitoring Experiment 01

Data provided by  National Institute of Standards and Technology

An experiment was set up within a machine tool at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) to test vision-based thermal drift tracking methods. A wireless microscope within a tool holder in the spindle is used to capture videos of image targets attached to the worktable. For each target, one video is captured during spindle rotation orthogonal to the worktable and another video is captured during axis translation orthogonal to the worktable.

Cost Assessment Tool for Sustainable Manufacturing (CATS)

Data provided by  National Institute of Standards and Technology

This tool uses techniques from ASTM E3200 for evaluating manufacturing investments from the perspective of environmentally sustainable manufacturing by pairing economic methods of investment analysis with environmental aspect of manufacturing. The economic techniques used include net present value, internal rate of return, payback period, and hurdle rate. These four techniques are deterministic, meaning that they deal with known values that are certain. The tool also conducts a sensitivity analysis using Monte Carlo techniques.

Linear Axis Testbed at IMS Center - Run-to-Failure Experiment 01

Data provided by  National Institute of Standards and Technology

A linear axis testbed at the Center for Intelligent Maintenance Systems (IMS Center) at the University of Cincinnati was run to failure (the detection of backlash) over one year with periodic data collected from an inertial measurement unit (IMU) on the carriage, two triaxial accelerometers on the ball nut, and the controller.

Simantha: Simulation for Manufacturing

Data provided by  National Institute of Standards and Technology

Simantha is a discrete event simulation package written in Python that is designed to model the behavior of discrete manufacturing systems. Specifically, it focuses on asynchronous production lines with finite buffers. It also provides functionality for modeling the degradation and maintenance of machines in these systems. Classes for five basic manufacturing objects are included: source, machine, buffer, sink, and maintainer. These objects can be defined by the user and configured in different ways to model various real-world manufacturing systems.

NIST CAD Models and STEP Files with PMI

Data provided by  National Institute of Standards and Technology

NIST has created a Test System to measure conformance of Computer-Aided Design (CAD) software to American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME) standards for Product and Manufacturing Information (PMI), specifically geometric dimensioning and tolerancing (GD&T) information. The test system includes: test case definitions (2D CAD drawings with PMI), CAD models generated from the test cases, STEP files generated from the CAD models, and verification and validation reports.

STEP File Analyzer and Viewer Software

Data provided by  National Institute of Standards and Technology

The STEP File Analyzer and Viewer is a software tool that generates a spreadsheet or a set of CSV (comma-separated value) files from a STEP (ISO 10303 Standard for Exchange of Product model data) Part 21 file. STEP files are used to represent product and manufacturing information (PMI) and for data exchange and interoperability between Computer-Aided Design (CAD), Manufacturing (CAM), Analysis (CAE), and Inspection (CMM) software related to the smart manufacturing digital thread. STEP is also used for the long-term archiving and retrieval of product data.

Exoskeleton Performance Data

Data provided by  National Institute of Standards and Technology

The National Institute of Standards and Technology, Intelligent Systems Division has collected data measuring human subjects, while performing common, simulated industrial manufacturing tasks with and without wearing an exoskeleton. Five tests were completed as part of a research study to develop measurement science towards standard test methods. For simulated industrial manufacturing tasks were performed using a novel, now standardized apparatus, called the Position and Load Test Apparatus for Exoskeletons (PoLoTAE).

Smart Investment Tool

Data provided by  National Institute of Standards and Technology

This tool calculates metrics for investment analysis documented in NIST Advanced manufacturing Series 200-5. It calculates net present value, internal rate of return, and payback period along with executing sensitivity analysis using Monte Carlo techniques. The tool helps to identify the most economical projects/investments. For instance, it could be used to identify the most economical heating and cooling system or it might be used to rank a set of potential investments.
