Revolutionizing shipbuilding with seamless PDM-CAD/CAM integration for optimal collaboration.
The article explores how Product Data Management (PDM) can be integrated with CAD/CAM software in shipbuilding. The researchers investigate the use of PDM and design a concept solution for optimal collaboration between PDM and CAD/CAM. They describe the engineering process in shipbuilding and identify activities that can benefit from PDM. By analyzing PDM functions and testing them on ship engineering processes, they show the benefits of PDM integration. The study demonstrates the feasibility of PDM solutions on ship design software.
