Digital Manufacturing is a technology facilitating effective developments and agile productions of the product via digital computer models representing physical and logical schema and the behavior of the real manufacturing systems including manufacturing resources, environments and products. For the successful application of this technology, a digital factory as a well-designed and an integrated environment is essential. In this paper, we constructed the sophisticated digital factory of a Korean automotive company's body shop, and conducted precise simulations of unit cell, lines and the whole factory for the collision check, the production flow analysis and the off-line programming. We expect that this digital factory of the body shop helps us achieve great savings in time and cost for many manufacturing preparation activities of the new car development.

Vents at outer walls of a large factory building are very important for natural ventilation. But, if a full-open vent is used, rain comes through the vents. We tried to utilize the natural ventilation effectively using a louver. A 1/120 scale-down building model was placed inside an atmospheric boundary layer simulated in a wind tunnel test section. The effect of louver angle on the ventilation flow inside the factory building was investigated experimentally. Instantaneous velocity fields inside the building model were measured using a 2-frame PIV system with varying the louver angles ($\theta=20^{\circ},\;40^{\circ},\;60^{\circ}$). For the case of $\theta=60^{\circ}$, as the incoming flow into the factory building increases, the inside velocity distribution becomes uniformly.

At this study, we are developing a possible control system through remote monitoring for fire protection in various chemical factory facilities. It's possible to do real time confirmation of a normal operation presence of the various equipment installed in a chemical factory through the internet network at a fire fighting head office, an area fire department and a chemical factory situation room using this remote monitoring control system. When occurring, abnormal operation is the remote monitoring control system, which can check this immediately and notify the situation room administrator. After it was tested using developed remote monitoring control system, the remote monitoring for which the internet network was used confirmed possible.

The concern about Smart Factory has increased according to the 4th revolution. The number of security threats targeting Smart Factory devices has increased over the last years and it is possible to cause the vulnerability of security about industry secret data. In this paper, we devide security requirements into four and analyze security vulnerability of Smart Factory devices and describe the attack type newly happened.

Applying life cycle assessment in PCB (printed circuit board) production, most of environmental impacts come from outside-factory-process due to power generation, especially, and other raw material productions. Relatively, small environmental impacts of inside-factory-process make it difficult to compare them. To overcome this problem allocating environmental impacts of outside-factory-process on inside-factory-process. It helps to identify the environmental impacts of each process and find sources of environmental impacts. Also, life cycle assessment shows reduction of environmental impacts after copper recycling process.

The noise levels and individual employee noise exposure levels within a factory will determine the need for hearing conservation program. The difficulty in not having an effective hearing conservation program is the risk of hearing loss that employees may sustain. In the last few years the claims for hearing loss compensation have grown due to class action litigation brought against the employer and companies that have equipment in the factory alleged to have caused hearing loss. The Blower in the factory generates the noise of 98.3dB(A) in the frequency range of 2,000Hz, which may cause occupational hearing loss. By designing close type enclosures which are made of absorption material, about 24.4dB(A) reduction has been in the factory. It is demonstrated that this kind of enclosures can be effectively used to reduce the noise in the factory.

This study was carried out to develop a vacuum nozzle seeder for large seeds and performance was tested on seed feeding, arranging. and sowing peformance. The results of this study were as follows： The operation of feeding device of the seeder was programmed to operate a period of setting time after sowing 6 rows. The setting time was decided based on a discharged seed by the angular speed of feeding roller. The arranging accuracy of 'tuktozwa', 'hukjong' and 'chambak' was 96.4％, 95.2％ and 89.4％ respectively. The working performance was 75.6sheet/hr which was 3.8 times higher than that of manual work. An average seeding rate of 1 grain was 97.8％.

In the future, the sorting machines will be taken charge of the most part of the letter sorting operations. At present, in order to deliver the sorted letters by the next day, many labors are intensively committed in the letter sorting operations. This research analyzes the problem of the facilities layout in registry department of mail center. It presents an improved design of facilities layout in comparison with several alternatives including the current layout using AutoCAD and FactoryCAD. It presents the optimized facilities layout using the algorithm which is embedded in the FactoryOPT. By the result of this research, we expect that the productivity of sorting letter will be improved and the related total labor cost will be minimized.

In recent years, most of the researchers have been working on micro system manufacturing technological environment. With this international trend and one of the key researches in Korea, this paper gives the keynote on manufacturing the micro-scaled part with digital micro factory and its simulation. In order to construct and estimate reconfigurable simulation time, the digital simulation has been performed for the micro factory and for ultra small machines. From simulation result we came to know that micro factory requires less work-in space and processing time to manufacture micro-scaled part with different environment.

Product factory is a real-time financial product design system for the Internet customers. Recently, as the number of the Internet customers increases, the importance of the product factory becomes more emphasized. However, there is not much research performed regarding its definition, properties, requirements, nor implementation. In this research, we make a clear definition of product factory, and analyze the requirements of the system from the perspectives of functions and services, and we propose an architecture that reflects the analyzed requirements. In additions, we implemented a prototypical system based on the proposed architecture to prove the usefulness of this research.
