DMDII Provides $1.2M for Collaborative Effort to Lower Product Design and Manufacturing Costs
Penn State industrial engineering researchers will work with experts from
Rolls-Royce (the lead institution), Georgia Tech, Boeing, John Deere, and Sentient Science,
to develop an advanced framework that will allow engineers to share and process engineering data, as well as formally represent design and manufacturing-related knowledge throughout the product design lifecycle.
The 18-month, $1.2 million project is funded by the Digital Manufacturing and Design Innovation Institute.
