While technology advances have led to tremendous improvements in CAD and Simulation capabilities, complex product assembly at most manufacturing facilities still relies on paper-based 2D drawings and remote workstations on the factory floor. However, these processes are becoming a thing of the past.

The advent of powerful tablet computers with long-life batteries allows “digital native” shop floor employees to interact directly with lightweight 3D and other data in paperless processes at the point of work, reducing assembly times and improving production quality. Learn about how Microsoft, Siemens, and Alliant Techsystems (ATK) implemented a shift to digital manufacturing processes.
