The world progresses toward Industry 4.0, and manufacturers are challenged to successfully navigate this unique digital journey. To some, digitalization is a golden opportunity; to others, it is a necessary evil. But to optimist and pessimist alike, there is a widespread puzzlement over the practical details of digitalization. To many manufacturers, digital transformation is a vague and confusing concept they nevertheless must grapple with in order to survive the Fourth Industrial Revolution. The proliferation of digital manufacturing technologies adds to the confusion, leaving many manufacturers perplexed and unprepared, with little real insight into how emerging technologies can help them sustain a competitive edge in their markets. This book effectively conveys Siemens's knowledge and experience through a concept called "Smart Digital Manufacturing," a stepwise approach to realizing the promise of the Fourth Industrial Revolution. The Smart Digital Manufacturing roadmap provides guidance and enables low-risk, high-reward adoption of new manufacturing software technologies through a series of tipping-point investment decisions that result in optimized manufacturing performance. The book provides readers with a clear understanding of what digital technology has to offer them, and how and when to invest in these essential components of tomorrow?s factories. René Wolf is Senior Vice President of Manufacturing Operations Management Software for Siemens Digital Industries Software, a business unit of the Siemens Digital Factory Division. Raffaello Lepratti is Vice President of Business Development and Marketing for Siemens Digital Industries Software.

This book draws a comprehensive approach to digital manufacturing through computer-aided design (CAD) and reverse engineering content complemented by basic CNC machining and computer-aided manufacturing (CAM), 3D printing, and additive manufacturing (AM) knowledge. The reader is exposed to a variety of subjects including the history, development, and future of digital manufacturing, a comprehensive look at 3D printing and AM, a comparative study between 3D printing and AM and CNC machining, and computer-aided engineering (CAE) along with 3D scanning. Applications of 3D printing and AM are presented as well as multiple special topics including design for 3D printing and AM (DfAM), costing, sustainability, environmental, safety, and health (EHS) issues. Contemporary subjects such as bio-printing, intellectual property (IP) and engineering ethics, virtual prototyping including augmented, virtual, and mixed reality (AR/VR/MR), and industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) are also covered. Each chapter comes with in-practice exercises and end-of-chapter questions, which can be used as home-works as well as hands-on or software-based laboratory activities. End-of-chapter questions are of three types mainly: review questions which can be answered by reviewing each chapter, research questions which need to be answered by conducting literature reviews and additional research, and discussion questions. In addition, some of the chapters include relevant problems or challenges which may require additional hands-on efforts. Most of the hands-on and practical content is driven by the authors’ previous experiences. The authors also encourage readers to help improve this book and its exercises by contacting them.

WINNER: CMI Management Book of the Year Awards 2018 - Management Futures Category Building Digital Culture aims to answer a simple question: How can organizations succeed when the environment they operate in is changing so quickly? The last thing businesses need today is a digital strategy. Instead, their strategy needs to be fit for our fast-changing digital world, where businesses have more data than they know what to do with, a media landscape that's exploded in size and complexity, the risk of a new disruption around every corner, and only one certainty: that this change won't let up. Building Digital Culture doesn't address whether or not you should advertize on Facebook or invest in virtual reality. It doesn't seek to unearth a silver bullet to make digital investments a sure-thing. It steps back from the hype, and argues that whatever digital might mean for your business, if you don't create a digital culture you'll most likely fail, or at least fall short of what you want to achieve. Combining more than 30 years of experience at the forefront of marketing and digital developments, and based on more than 200 hours of research, candid interviews and contributions from brands including Twitter, Deloitte, HSBC and many more, Building Digital Culture will help you navigate from being a business that tolerates or acts digital, to one that truly is digital.
