Abstract

MAGNA STEYR aims to establish digital planning in all important areas. In the field of BIW (Body In White) the digital process planning is already a reality. Starting from a digital product model, welding process are planned completely in digital form. Process simulation and offline robot programming safeguard the planning. With the connection of the digital process planning and discrete event simulation MAGNA STEYR took an important step towards realizing the digital factory.
