1.2 What is CIM?

 Computer Integrated Manufacturing (CIM) is

the manufacturing approach of using computers to control the entire
production process.
 CIM combines: computer-aided design (CAD) and computer-aided
manufacturing (CAM) to provide an error-free manufacturing
process that reduces manual labor and automates repetitive tasks.
 The CIM approach increases the speed of the manufacturing process
and uses real-time sensors and closed-loop control processes to
automate the manufacturing process

1.3 History of CIM

Nowadays: CIM appears in many factories and play an

important role

Air-Force
1976: An CIM system was built in material Lab of US

1975: US Ministry of Defense built the Integrated Computer-

Aided Manufacturing
1973: The concept about CIM is announced by Dr. Joseph
Harrington

1.4 The benefits of CIM

Why do we
need CIM?

Dr. Van-Phong Vu-Department of Automatic Control

1.4 The benefits of CIM
 Increase the number of products, flexibility during manufacturing
enhance the competitiveness and quickly response with the
customer’s demand.
 Make an optimal manufacturing plan, balance both economic and
technical factors.
 Obtain the suitable data to make decision
 Increase the productivity, quality of products and services, and
eliminate the unnecessary tasks.
 Reduce the labor cost.
 Simplify the procedure for product design.
 Reduce the direct and indirect working load
Dr. Van-Phong Vu-Department of Automatic Control
1.4 The benefits of CIM
 Save the manufacturing area and optimize the using input materials.

 CIM allows individual processes to exchange information with each

other and initiate actions.
 Through the integration of computers, manufacturing can be faster
and less error-prone.
 Standardize the checking and monitoring process, and statistic
figure management.
 Decrease the time and labor force for manufacturing supervision.

1.6 Steps for Deploying CIM in Factory
 Step 1: Evaluate the Company
 Technology: Evaluate the current technology situation, evaluate the
complexity of manufacturing process in middle and long-term of
company.
 Human resources: Evaluate the ready of workers to build a automation
system in whole factory.
 Operation of the system of company: Evaluate the current
manufacturing situation, point out the unreasonable points with the target
of company.

1.6 Steps for Deploying CIM in Factory
 Step 2: Standardization-Simplification-Eliminating wastes
 Eliminate the wastes and unsuitable/unnecessary steps in manufacturing
process to increase the productivity.
 Step 3: Evaluate the obtained results
 During carrying out CIM system, evaluation the results is necessary.
 Factors for evaluation:

• Life cycle of products • Quality of product

• Changing kind of products in store • Productivity of workers
• Yield of manufacturing process • Proposed Improvement from employees
