A Concept of a Digital and Traceable Manufacturing Documentation Based on Formalized Process Description Applied on Composite Aircraft Moveable

Kurzfassung

The documentation of component manufacturing has become an essential element of modern production, not only to meet customer requirements but also to support the analysis and optimization of production processes and component designs with respect to structural performance, economic efficiency, and sustainability. To enable effective interaction between different disciplines, standardized process descriptions as well as consistent information and data structures are required. Digital manufacturing instructions and process documentation based on standardized, formalized process descriptions and the automated acquisition of process data offer significant potential for robust and efficient manufacturing. In this context, a semantic data model ensures data consistency and enhances opportunities for process analysis and optimization. This contribution presents a method for the standardized digital documentation of a composite manufacturing process using a formalized process description. A digital life data sheet (LDS), combining manufacturing instructions and documentation, is implemented using Atlassian Confluence and applied to the production of a composite multispar movable of a long-range reference aircraft configuration. The usability of the developed LDS is evaluated, potential improvements are identified, and the underlying semantic data model is described.
