Application of Digital Technologies to Solve Production Problems of Metalworking
Unlike theoretical knowledge, applied engineering education is associated with the development and implementation of new equipment and technology. The modern level of technology, determined by the dominant technological structure, is characterized by the intensive development of computing technology and the information and communication technologies associated with it. They provide automation, integration, interoperability, modularity and flexibility in production environments. To this end, computer-aided design systems have been created in engineering, which are used to make 3D models of parts and assemblies, to design technological processes, to create control programs for industrial equipment, to manage production and material flows of an enterprise. The article discusses the use of information technology in solving the technical problem of shaping elemental chips by rotary milling. The stages of solving the problem are shown and the application of information technologies is illustrated on each of them. The combination of applied programs and methods allows determining the optimal parameters of the operation of rotary milling to ensure obtaining the required length of the chip element.
