Abstract
Cloud-Based Design and Manufacturing refers to a service-oriented networked product development model. It involves digital design and manufacturing processes, such as designing a product using CAD and generating prototypes via additive manufacturing. Unfortunately, designs that look fine on the CAD screen often turn out misshaped on the 3D-printer. The root cause of this is a mismatch between CAD geometry and 3D-printer capabilities. In this paper, the authors investigate this issue and propose an ontology for capturing core data of CAD models and 3D-printers with the aim to support smart digital design-to-manufacture analysis apps for matching suitable printers to design models.
