The laws of nature ultimately limit technological improvement in any field. For
example, the number of transistors that can be placed on a silicon chip is
limited by the crystal structure of silicon. Most industries are however far from
these limits, and they are much more likely to come up against practical
technological limits. For instance the efficiency of today's car engines can
greatly be improved, when the operating temperatures can be increased.
Current alloys however cannot withstand these temperatures, but there are
materials such as ceramics that can operate at these temperatures. The
problem, however, is that ceramics are not practical to use because of
characteristics like their strength. Ongoing research is taking place in this
field.

Tresses traditionally have been considered as one of the most beautiful features of a Woman. Long hair give a woman a touch of sensuality and short hair make woman look confident and independent.
Eye on industry Precision Engineering : Poised for Growth with $5.6m Investment Liu PeiLing
One critical area is to tackle the training of computer numeric control (CNC) machinists, which traditionally requires one machine for one machinist, resulting in heavy capital investment. SPETA, together with SIMTech, developed a simulator for training CNC machinists which significantly reduce the training hours spent on the actual machine and machine resources required. As a result, the number of students trained is also doubled.

Virtual Mold Design
Firstly we transform our surface plastic part model into Extended Z Map. Then we do draft analysis to detect undercut.
Secondly we explode the part into core and cavity face groups.
Our Extended Z Map is used to classify the part face into core, cavity, both direction, and undercut face groups. There is no parting line search or selection process until the next step. We don’t use the parting line to separate the core and cavity faces. Our method does not need to traverse the B-rep edge face relation map.
Thirdly we perform the parting edge and hole edge loop search on the exploded core and cavity faces groups
QuickSeeNC first case study 1999
The High Speed Machining (HSM) is the most important technological development in precision engineering. The constant load is a very important factor in HSM. The cutter will break under uneven cutting force. The HSM requires huge tool path to realise the constant load. The milling tool path can easily exceed a half million blocks of machine code. As the feed rate is already very high, it is almost impossible to run test cutting by increasing the feed rate. Visual tool path check is difficult as the tool path overlapping with each other. It takes a long time to run traditional NC simulation software.
The world’s first intelligent CAM integrated with 3D precise dynamic NC verification that can be rotated during simulation process and calculate machining load to optimize CNC for faster cutting.
The traditional Z-Map was re-invented to a common data model for representation of geometry, attributes, physical states and other characteristics of novel manufacturing processes, which may include a multi-step operation of milling, turning, moulding and EDM (Electro-Discharge Machining), etc. The method is used to integrate these discrete point unit processes into a multi-step model for pervasive processes design and verification. A second patent has been filed to apply this method in mould design and verification.
SIMTech has patented common data model for representation of geometry, attributes, physical states and other characteristics of novel manufacturing processes, which may include a multi-step operation of milling, turning, molding and EDM (Electro-Discharge Machining), etc. The method is used to integrate these discrete point unit processes into a multi-step model for pervasive processes design and verification. A second patent has been filed to apply this method in mold design and verification.
SIMTech has developed the QuickSeeNC to model, simulate, verify and optimise numerical control (NC) machining, which provide ‘What You See is What You Cut’ functions. QuickSeeNC has been adopted by several local die and mould makers for its speed and simplicity.
Unified Geometry Modelling for Pervasive Design and FabricationLiu PeiLing
Conventional Computer Aided Design (CAD), Computer Aided Engineering (CAE), and Computer Aided Manufacturing (CAM) employed discrete geometry models that could not be easily exchanged and effectively employed for biomech design and fabrication.
SIMTech has patented a common data model for representation of geometry, attributes, physical states and other characteristics of novel manufacturing processes. The method could be extended to integrate these discrete point unit processes into a unified geometrical model for pervasive design and verification.
SIMTech has developed the QuickSeeNC to model, simulate, verify and optimise numerical control (NC) machining, which provide ‘What You See is What You Cut’ functions. QuickSeeNC has been adopted by several local die and mould makers for its speed and simplicity. SIMTech is working with Singapore Precision Engineering and Tooling Association (SPETA) to develop training simulator for the Xbox & Play station (X&P) generation of NC machinist and programmer.
Smart machining adds intelligence to the machining operation. NC simulation could take into account the exact depth, width and angle of each cut and optimize the machining parameters based on the machining model and measured data of the part geometry.
Profiting from dynamic numerical control verification systemLiu PeiLing
Comparing with the sharp decline of the computing cost, worldwide material and machine tool prices are upsurge significantly. Saving material and machine through pervasive computing is not only technically possible, but also makes business sense in the current high raw material and energy cost situation. SIMTech developed QuickSeeNC to model, simulate, verify, and optimizes NC machining. Many local die and mold maker adopted QuickSeeNC for its speed and simplicity. The patented technology sharpens the cutting edge of Singapore die and mold industry.
“Virtual machining” is a modelling process that realistically simulates the setting up and running of an actual machining operation. First, the user specifies the stock from which the part will be cut, either by entering dimensions into the software or importing a CAD model. Then, after selecting the cutting tools, the NC program (either G-code data or native CAM output) automatically simulates the motion of the tool removing material from the stock. The programmer can watch the material removal process and see details of how each cut changes the shape of the part. This eliminates having to try to imagine how cuts from the current operation will affect subsequent operations.
Simulation of machining process for CNC training is significant given its lower cost and risk-free nature. The drastic decrease of the cost of computer, couple with the worldwide price increase in material and machine tools meanings that virtual CNC training using computerized modelling and simulation is a cost-effective and sustainable approach to technical and professional education in manufacturing applications. The virtual CNC training system is developed for simulation of multiple machining processes. It is particularly important in the training of knowledge-intensive high speed and ultra precision machining. The in-process model proposed for the virtual CNC training system is presented in detail, followed by case studies of the industry training applications. Compared with conventional on-site manual training or e-learning, the virtual CNC training system greatly increases learning efficiency and effectiveness of trainees, and improves cost saving in terms of machine and material uses.
Towards smart and sustainable machiningLiu PeiLing
Computer Numeric Control (CNC) revolutionized the machining technology and has been the cutting edge of digital manufacturing since 1950s. CNC machining model, simulation, verification, and optimization have been a vivid research topic of Smart Machining that automated the CNC programming (CAM) and cutting process, hence greatly increased machining productivity since 1990s. This paper traces back the history of CNC simulation, analysis the different CNC machining models, tested with application examples, and listed different CNC verification industry applications for the last 20 years. The new challenge comes from sustainable manufacturing. Towards smart and competitive sustainable machining, CNC model and simulation will be used to optimize the machining process, where the raw material could be saved through First Part Correct technology, the energy could be saved through cutting speed optimization, and used parts could be saved by remanufacturing.
Enhance VR with in process model for advance personalized learning of cnc pro...Liu PeiLing
Enhance Virtual Reality (VR) for advance personalized learning has been listed as the grand engineering challenge [1]. However, current VR model is not deformable to describe the shape change of manufacturing processes, such as subtractive machining or additive layer manufacturing (LM). Further more, current VR model is not precise enough to simulate the measurement of workpiece, which may go to submicron level. This paper reviewed the current industrial needs of virtual computer numerical control (CNC) training, listed the critical technology issues, traced the 20 years evolution of in-process models of CNC machining, and proposed a new solution. Based on the proposed in-process model, a virtual CNC training system has been developed and used in training courses. Comparisons with conventional on-site manual training and VR based e-learning concluded this new approach could greatly improve safety, increase learning efficiency, and save machine and material.
Quick NC simulation & verification for high speed machiningLiu PeiLing
Numerical Control (NC) machining is the cutting edge of modern manufacturing technology. NC errors could break cutter edges, destroy work pieces and even damage the machine tool. In recent years, more and higher speed cutting is applied in the industry due to the advancement of machine tool technology and the demand of shorter production time. However, checking the NC codes for high speed machining is difficult due to the lack of information on material removal rate and the large size of NC blocks. In this paper, a novel high speed NC simulation method in an extended Z-map approach is presented, which offers higher simulation accuracy of the resulted geometry and with reasonable cutting load calculation. In conclusion the authors propose the pervasive manufacturing modeling and simulation for multi machining and layered manufacturing processes.
Profiting with competitive sustainable machining technologyLiu PeiLing

Manufacturing Process Simulation Based Geometrical Design for Complicated PartsLiu PeiLing
More than ever, it is critical that products are designed and manufactured right the first time. Design for Manufacturing (DFM) methodology has been recognized as one of the most effective ways to short product lifecycle time and reduce manufacturing cost. The main function of DFM in the detailed design stage is analyzing the manufacturability of the part. Various existing manufacturability evaluation methods have their limitations. In this paper, a new approach to DFM for the complicated parts is proposed. Instead of checking the manufacturability following the design, the in-process model resulting from the manufacturing process simulation is used to generate process dependent geometry surfaces at the design stage. The definition of the manufacturing process dependent geometry is given, and the methodology for creation of in-process model is presented in details.

The proposed project is developed to manage the automobile in the automobile dealer company. The main module in this project is login, automobile management, customer management, sales, complaints and reports. The first module is the login. The automobile showroom owner should login to the project for usage. The username and password are verified and if it is correct, next form opens. If the username and password are not correct, it shows the error message.
When a customer search for a automobile, if the automobile is available, they will be taken to a page that shows the details of the automobile including automobile name, automobile ID, quantity, price etc. “Automobile Management System” is useful for maintaining automobiles, customers effectively and hence helps for establishing good relation between customer and automobile organization. It contains various customized modules for effectively maintaining automobiles and stock information accurately and safely.
When the automobile is sold to the customer, stock will be reduced automatically. When a new purchase is made, stock will be increased automatically. While selecting automobiles for sale, the proposed software will automatically check for total number of available stock of that particular item, if the total stock of that particular item is less than 5, software will notify the user to purchase the particular item.
Also when the user tries to sale items which are not in stock, the system will prompt the user that the stock is not enough. Customers of this system can search for a automobile; can purchase a automobile easily by selecting fast. On the other hand the stock of automobiles can be maintained perfectly by the automobile shop manager overcoming the drawbacks of existing system.

CFD Simulation of By-pass Flow in a HRSG module by R&R Consult.pptxR&R Consult
CFD analysis is incredibly effective at solving mysteries and improving the performance of complex systems!
Here's a great example: At a large natural gas-fired power plant, where they use waste heat to generate steam and energy, they were puzzled that their boiler wasn't producing as much steam as expected.
R&R and Tetra Engineering Group Inc. were asked to solve the issue with reduced steam production.
An inspection had shown that a significant amount of hot flue gas was bypassing the boiler tubes, where the heat was supposed to be transferred.
R&R Consult conducted a CFD analysis, which revealed that 6.3% of the flue gas was bypassing the boiler tubes without transferring heat. The analysis also showed that the flue gas was instead being directed along the sides of the boiler and between the modules that were supposed to capture the heat. This was the cause of the reduced performance.
Based on our results, Tetra Engineering installed covering plates to reduce the bypass flow. This improved the boiler's performance and increased electricity production.
It is always satisfying when we can help solve complex challenges like this. Do your systems also need a check-up or optimization? Give us a call!
Work done in cooperation with James Malloy and David Moelling from Tetra Engineering.

Cosmetic shop management system project report.pdfKamal Acharya
Buying new cosmetic products is difficult. It can even be scary for those who have sensitive skin and are prone to skin trouble. The information needed to alleviate this problem is on the back of each product, but it's thought to interpret those ingredient lists unless you have a background in chemistry.
Instead of buying and hoping for the best, we can use data science to help us predict which products may be good fits for us. It includes various function programs to do the above mentioned tasks.
Data file handling has been effectively used in the program.
The automated cosmetic shop management system should deal with the automation of general workflow and administration process of the shop. The main processes of the system focus on customer's request where the system is able to search the most appropriate products and deliver it to the customers. It should help the employees to quickly identify the list of cosmetic product that have reached the minimum quantity and also keep a track of expired date for each cosmetic product. It should help the employees to find the rack number in which the product is placed.It is also Faster and more efficient way.

3. Local Enterprise and Association Development Programme
(LEAD)
• Some S$50 million has been set aside over three years to
build up a base of able and willing associations to lead in
industry development efforts.
• To enhance industry and enterprise competitiveness through
partnerships with associations which are willing to take the
lead in development and drive initiatives to improve the
overall capabilities of SMEs:
– Technology & Infrastructure – This will encourage enterprises to
improve their capabilities and productivity by leveraging on enterprise
applications and relevant technology infrastructure to innovate and
enhance their business operations. It includes the adoption of info-
communication technology, development of technical standards and
establishment of industry-wide infrastructure
– Intelligence & Research – This will encourage enterprises towards a
deeper understanding of industry trends and requirements so as to
develop industry specific solutions through comprehensive research
based on sound market intelligence
4. Industry-led and Government-backed
• Trade and Industry Minister Lim Hng Kiang, who launched the
programme, said it signalled the government's commitment to working
with industry associations to nurture the local industrial landscape.
• Geared at providing focused and customised assistance to the
associations at the industry level, it complements the various initiatives
already in place for individual enterprises.
• Mr Lim stressed the need for the government to foster even closer
partnerships with industry associations.
• And he believed that going forward, Singapore could achieve the next
stage of its economic growth if it adopted an "industry-led and
government-backed" approach.
• Mr Lim urged the associations to make full use of the LEAD
Programme to meet the needs of their members and help their
industries move ahead.
• The government, on its part, will work closely with them to help them
formulate and implement self-sustaining industry development
blueprints.
5. Why Industry Associations Should Take the Lead?
• The Government designed incentives and assistance programmes to
cater to and benefit the individual enterprise. While this approach has
served us well, it does not provide enterprises with customised and
focused assistance.
– At the same time, industries in major economies such as Europe, Japan
and Korea have adopted the model of private sector-led industry
development. For example, industry associations in Europe are well-
established and have a long history of serving the needs of their members.
These associations serve as regulators for specific trade registration and
skills certification. Closer to home in Asia, the Japan Electronics and
Information Technology Association, or JEITA is another fine example of
industry association leadership.
• We can achieve the next stage of our economic growth if we adopt an
“Industry-led and Government-backed” approach. For Singapore to
become an innovation-driven economy, the private sector needs to
play a bigger role. After all, industry associations know private sector
businesses best – in terms of the industry’s unique problems and
challenges. They can play an instrumental role in the improvement
and upgrading of their industries.
6. Singapore Tooling Industry
• Contributed to 6% GDP or 9.3 billion and involved 27% value-added
total manufacturing in year 2002, PE industry is pivotal to the
competitiveness of whole manufacturing sector. The output of PE
accounted for more than a tenth of total manufacturing output in 2002
and EDB attributed PE as a key growth area and expected to double in
output over the next decade.
• When looking inside the PE industry, it can be found that the industry
relies strongly on the capability and depth of experience and capacity
of CNC machining. As the cutting edge of precision industry, CNC
machining produces essential inputs for manufacturing products by
providing injection mould, sheet metal die, casting die, jigs and
fixtures and other special tools. Creating output of 850 million in year
2001, CNC machining are major component in Singapore industry.
• PE industry is facing rigorous competition from both advanced
countries like Germany, US and Japan, and rapid developing regions
like Taiwan and mainland China. A survey to local companies done by
EDB shows that the skill of Singapore worker lags behind.

• Many knowledge-based and IT-based industries are starting to replace the traditional labour- and skills-intensive industries
• Shifts towards high tech, high value added products
• Different skill sets, such as knowledge-based and IT skills, implies an emphasis on manpower upgrading
8. Singapore Precision Engineering & Tooling Association
(SPETA)
• SPETA is a non-profit trade association representing
locally registered companies engaged in the manufacturing
of moulds & dies, jigs & fixtures, metal stamping, metal
castings, plastic and rubber moldings, precision machining,
photonic and semi-conductor equipment, aerospace and
automotive parts, as well as in providing services related to
the precision engineering industry.
• Founded in 1982 as the Singapore Tool & Die Association,
it had changed its name to Singapore Precision
Engineering & Tooling Association in 1988.
9. • Provides industry feedback on skills training and curriculum for the Nitec and
Diploma courses, e.g.
– development of the part-time “Diploma in Precision Engineering”
– Sit on the “Industry Skills and Training Council” that oversee the development of the
‘National Continued Education and Training Framework’
– Focus on the training of strategic manpower to complement the national education and
training system in meeting the manpower needs of the tooling industry

Role of SPETA in Manpower Development
10. Manpower Development Initiatives
• Established the SPETA - 3D CAD/CAM Unit
– an initiative heavy funded by the government to drive the application of 3D CAD/CAM
tools in the design and manufacture of precision plastic injection molds
• Initiated “Train-and-Place” programmes
– provision of training cum job placements for CNC machinists and CAD/CAM Operators
• Program manager for the “Place-and-Train” programme
– a new initiative by the Singapore Workforce Agency, an agency under the Ministry of
Manpower, to place local workers in the Singapore tooling industry and provide the
necessary skills training
• Developed skills standard, curriculum and courseware for:
– CNC Machining (milling, die-sinking and wire-cut) / 3D Mold Design / CAM
• Provided CNC machinist training in:
– 3-Axis CNC Milling / Die-sinking / Wire-cut
• Provided specialist upgrading training in:
– 3D Mold Design (for mold designers) / CAM (for CAD/CAM practitioners)
11. Why CNC Training?
• So called high tech revolution of precision engineering, represented by
pervasive use of computer such as CNC control, CAM, HSM, ultra machining,
not only reduce the dependence of precision engineering on unskilled workers,
such as manual polisher, but also create a pool of demand on skilled workers,
such as skilled CNC machinists, especially who can operate knowledge
intensive HSM and ultra precision machining.
• In today's competitive world, not only the latest technologies are needed, but
most importantly, highly-qualified personnel. This is especially true when it
comes to working with CNC Machines. Only when CNC machines have been
perfectly mastered are high productivity and exceptional quality guaranteed.
Skilled workers, especially the machinist who can operate High Speed and
Ultra Precision Machine Tool, are playing a key role in current situation.
• HSM requires the machinist to know not only how to operate the machine tool
but also machining knowledge, in order to plan a successful cutting. Lacking
of skilled worker, especially skilled machinist who can do high speed and ultra
precision machining, is a major problem for local industry. Skilled machinists
are in high demand in Singapore and Asia, especially in China.
12. Why Virtual CNC Training?
Customizable training software to replace expensive machine
• Presently, trainees acquire their operating skills by observing, referring the
operation manual and then operating under the guidance of an experienced
operator. The training of skilled machinists is still a slow and manual process,
which need a lot of machine tools and fixtures etc. The machining job has a
traditional image problem of black smith. To make training safer, more
economical and more effective, there is an increasing desire to complete initial
training away from the operating environment.
• It is recognized that ITE schools, industrial training centers, public education
facilities, machine tool manufacturers and dealers are having increasing-
complexity of training requirement. They require not only training software
but more comprehensive turnkey solutions for CNC training system.
• Simulation of machining process is helpful to avoid human errors, especially
in the training center. Comparing with the sharp decline of the computing cost,
worldwide material and machine tool prices are upsurge significantly. Saving
material and machine through pervasive application of modeling and
simulation (M&S) in CNC training is not only technically possible, but also
makes business sense in the current high material and energy cost situation.
13. Worldwide Virtual CNC R&D
• USA - AVML - Advanced Virtual Manufacturing
Lab
– Develop a highly realistic virtual manufacturing lab
which includes CNC milling machines and lathes for
use in training and research
• EU - VIRTOOL - Virtual Manipulation to
Simulate Machine Tool Processes
– To develop an educational software tool for the
simulation of common machine Tool operations.
14. Virtual CNC Applications
• Virtual advanced manufacturing training
and education in academia and industry
• Visualization of next generation machine
tools
• Virtual product realization and optimization
• Virtual factory
15. National Interest
• A key factor to retaining manufacturing jobs is a
highly skilled workforce that can effectively and
efficiently use state-of-the-art machine tools
• Most potential manufacturing workers do not
have access to state-of-the-art manufacturing
labs that can provide such training
• The US President’s Executive Order identifies
manufacturing workforce skills improvement
technologies as high-priority
16. Industrial Customer Needs 1
• Increase effectiveness of on the job training
– On job training of manufacturing workers is
expensive and time consuming.
– Virtual CNC can be used to inexpensively train
workers on advanced machine tools.
• The training can encompass conditions that are hard
or expensive to duplicate in the real factory such as
effects of raw material shortages, emergency
breakdowns, handling of hazardous situations, and
unplanned interruptions.
• Training in a risk free environment and without
negative impact to production schedules for heavily
utilized machinery.
17. Industrial Customer Needs 2
• Improve design of next generation machine
– Customers of next generation machine tools don't get to
use them until after they have been delivered. At that time,
it is often too late for modifications. Also, initially it takes
a long time for the operators to get the new machine to full
productivity.
– Provide visualization of various design alternatives for end
users long before the machine tool is made and delivered.
This will optimize the configuration and reduce the cost
and increase the quality.
– Easily and inexpensively train operators even before the
machine's installation, thus greatly accelerating
deployment in production and shortening the time it takes
to achieve maximum productivity.
18. Academic and Industrial
Customers Joint Needs
• Foster cooperation between academia and
local industry
– Local colleges and university students are given basic
training on generic and outdated manufacturing
equipment that is not directly relevant to local
employers.
– Virtual CNC allow local colleges and universities in
partnership with local employers to easily and cost
effectively develop training on virtual machine tools
that are directly relevant to local manufacturing
employers.
19. Summary - Educational Benefits:
• Virtual CNC has broad impacts to the advancement of
manufacturing technology and the promotion of
creativity and collaboration in manufacturing education
and training.
• Due to high cost, there are only a handful of universities
that have manufacturing labs that are on the leading
edge of technology. This greatly restricts access of both
students and researchers to such high-end labs. What is
unique about Virtual CNC is that it will allow, for the
first time, broad access to advanced manufacturing labs.
• Foster cooperation between academia and local industry
in workforce development
20. • Economic Benefits:
– Strengthen manufacturers competitiveness in global
markets and advance important national interests.
• Societal Benefits:
– Provide accessibility to education and training on
advanced manufacturing machinery for
underrepresented groups and underprivileged sectors of
society who would not otherwise have access to an
advanced manufacturing lab. Such access will enable
those groups to reclaim manufacturing jobs that
otherwise would be outsourced overseas.
31. Speech by the Minister of State for Trade and Industry
Mr Lee Yi Shyan
at the Showcase of SPETA LEAD Projects
“ SPETA, together with SIMTECH, has developed a
simulator for training computer numeric control
machinists, which can significantly reduce the hours and
machine resources required, compared to traditional
training methods. In other words, trainees would be able
to practice different and more types of machining
requirements within the same allocated training time.
With this additional preparation, trainees would have a
shorter learning cycle when they start working with the
companies. I am pleased to note that the Institute of
Technical Education (or ITE) is already in discussion
with SPETA to integrate this simulator into their training
curriculum.”
32. Joint Media Release by
SPRING and IE Singapore
• SPETA’s initiatives under the industry development plan are already
underway. The 180-strong industry association gave an update on their
initiatives and showcased some projects at their Annual General Meeting
(AGM).
• Minister of State for Trade and Industry, Mr Lee Yi Shyan, who officiated at
the event, commended SPETA for championing the development of the PE
industry. He urged companies to “differentiate themselves by providing
products and services which cannot be easily copied or matched, seek new
growth markets, enhance their technical capabilities to move up the value
chain, and attract and retain talents and upgrade the skills of their workers.”
• SPETA Chairman Dr Felix Ong said, “We are very happy that our industry
plan and efforts have the support of SPRING and IE Singapore. Our PE
industry will be poised to meet the new global challenges ahead through the
development of new markets and businesses, and upgrading of our
capabilities.”
33. Joint Media Release by
SPRING and IE Singapore
• Singapore’s precision engineering (PE) industry can look forward to
creating $475 million more revenue and $150 million in value added –
plus 2,000 jobs -- in the next three years. This is all thanks to the $5.6
million investment pumped in to invigorate the sector by the
Singapore Precision Engineering and Tooling Association (SPETA) –
with support from the government under the Local Enterprise and
Association Development programme (LEAD).
• SPETA is among 13 industry associations that have received support
under the LEAD programme. Launched in May 2005, LEAD is a
multi-agency initiative jointly led by SPRING Singapore and
International Enterprise (IE) Singapore to enhance industry and
enterprise competitiveness through partnerships with industry
associations to improve key capabilities of local enterprises in their
sectors.
34. Joint Media Release by
SPRING and IE Singapore
• SPETA has identified several critical areas to enhance the capabilities
of the PE companies. One example is the training of computer numeric
control (CNC) machinists, which traditionally requires one machine
for one machinist, resulting in heavy capital investment. SPETA,
together with SIMTech, developed a simulator for training CNC
machinists – somewhat like the flight simulators to train pilots – which
will significantly trim the training hours on the actual machine and
machine resources required. As a result, the number of students trained
is doubled.
• This is the world’s first simulator that uses a three-dimensional precise
unified geometrical model and it allows students to simulate the
milling process and save the “machined” model for other downstream
machining process. The virtual CNC simulator also allows for
different situations to be tested during training, which would be costly
if done on the machines. The Institute of Technical Education (ITE) is
in discussion with SPETA to integrate this simulator into its
curriculum.
35. Media Release by IE Singapore
- About Virtual CNC Training Software the world’s first 3D training simulator
• Using the latest modelling and computer technologies, training CNC
machinists will never be the same again. Working like a flight
simulator that train pilots, this training software will provide realistic
training from the setup to the operation of the CNC machines and the
simulation of the actual machining process. With this training
simulator, students would be able to familiarise themselves with the
setup and operation of the CNC machines before practicing on the
actual machines, and have a better understanding the machining
process using this training simulator.
• This training simulator would be able to help educational institutions
enhance the quality of their CNC training courses using scenario-
based training and at the same time reduce their capital investment in
CNC machines and training consumables, such as raw stock and
cutters, by more than 50%.
36. • This software is developed by SPETA and the Singapore Institute of
Manufacturing Technology (SIMTech). This development project is
one of the projects supported by SPRING Singapore and IE Singapore
under the Local Enterprise and Association Development Programme
(LEAD).
• The virtual CNC simulator is the world’s first training simulator that
utilises a three-dimensional precise unified geometrical model which
allows the students to simulate the milling process and save the
‘machined’ model to be used in the simulation of another downstream
machining process. It is also the world’s first CNC training simulator
that provides realistic training from the setup to the operation of the
CNC milling machine.
• SPETA is in the process of integrating the CNC Mill into its training
courseware for CNC machinists. The enhanced CNC machinist
training course will also be aligned with the precision engineering
workforce skills and qualifications framework (PE-WSQ) developed
by the Workforce Development Agency (WDA). The intention of this
enhanced training course is to allow the students to practice different
and more types of machining requirements within the same allocated
training hours, thus reducing their learning curve when they start
working with the companies.
