Abstract

Many major companies are developing complete virtual factories to enable them to simulate complete manufacturing processes with the main aim to deliver high quality products but also to achieve cost improvements. The manufacturers aim to build virtual factories which will enable them to analyze and improve their production lines in any of their plants all around the world without having to go there. Education needs to go in step with this idea and prepare students for those engineering jobs. There are a number of schools and universities that are beginning to follow and have integrated virtual environment design in their curricula but there are still many school that are not. This paper outlines the attempt to integrate virtual manufacturing into virtual design curricula and enable students to interfere with this virtual world.
