We reviewed the Fishhead part. We are going to divide the plan into
four processes:<br>
<br>
1. Stock Preparation. 2. Roughing. 3. Finishing. 4. Inspection.<br>
<br>
We are able to include AP242 tolerances on the part and will
increase the range of tolerances to be tested to make sure there are
no issues. We are going to change the fixture to show the four
clamps and will export all the tolerance data in mm's. <br>
<br>
DMG and Mazak have both responded positively so the the list of
potential participants in now DMG, Hyundai, Makino, Mazak and Okuma.<br>

We reviewed the roadmap. There was discussion about the best title
with "Smart Machining Roadmap" and "Industry 4.0 Machining Roadmap"
being suggested as alternatives to "Digital Twin Manufacturing
Roadmap". "Smart Machining Roadmap" might help us harmonize with
the Smart manufacturing initiatives at NIST, and in the UK (<a

"Industry 4.0 Machining Roadmap" might help us harmonize with
Industry 4.0 and increase the interest in our work in Germany and
the rest of the world.<br>
<br>
Adopting a single common name will help us achieve better
recognition if what we are doing fits in with the goals and
directions of the bigger brand name. Within our smaller context,
Digital Twinning and the Digital Thread are the unique contributions
we are delivering and wish to show at IMTS 2018 and JIMTOF 2018. The
as-edited roadmap is attached and shown below - further suggestions
and comments are encouraged.<br>
