National Institute of Standards and Technology | The Digital Thread: Stitching Together the Next Industrial Revolution @NIST | Uploaded October 2015 | Updated October 2024, 1 day ago.
Along the path from design to manufacture, a lot of information gets passed from computer to computer and machine to machine. Figuring out how a product’s design and manufacturing information can be authored, exchanged and processed without errors is critical. NIST is playing a key role in this “digitization” of manufacturing with its Digital Thread for Smart Manufacturing project, which would help businesses of all sizes make the most of the revolution.
