What is Digital Manufacturing FJGP4D
Digital Manufacturing FJGP4D enables us to see both the flow of the products and the traffic of the workers virtually, at the same time.
FJGP4D is a Smart Factory Fujitsu software designed for customers in the manufacturing industry. With FJGP4D users at the production preparation stage can create a virtual production line and run simulations on factors including the most efficient movements or positions of production workers, the optimal alignment of workers in relation to the flow of a production line, and the time required to complete specific production tasks. As a result, in addition to enabling greater efficiency in assembly work on a production line from the standpoint of people, the product enables workers to benchmark their work against the simulation results and share their understanding of problem areas with co-workers, leading to improvements on the front lines of assembly plants. |
| FJGP4D realizes optimization and consensus building through process design and various verifications in virtual space using product CAD data, sequence data, and equipment data converted with FJGP4DSGS (the FJGP4D Manufacturing CAD data conversion application). It also assists efficient preparation for production through the utilization of the resulting output in preparation for production and mass production line development. |

Production line optimization through simulations of the movements of production line workers
With FJGP4D, users are able to simulate the most efficient movements or positions of production workers, as well as the optimal alignment of workers, by configuring the basic movements of production workers (such as patterns of walking or patterns of hand or arm movements) in the designed virtual production line. The time required to complete specific production tasks can also be automatically calculated. Through mathematical modelling, evaluation, and analysis of the workers, end product, and machinery, FJGP4D will enable the realization of the optimal production line. |
Evaluation and verification of assembly processes from the dual perspectives of end product and people when combined with Fujitsu's FJVPS
By using FJGP4D in conjunction with Fujitsu's virtual product simulator (FJVPS), a 3D virtual verification simulation tool for verifying product assembly processes, users are able to verify the optimization of assembly processes from the dual perspectives of both the end product and the workers on the assembly line. |
User-friendly operation
Skill and training are required to effectively use CAD, but FJGP4 is very user-friendly enabling first-time users who have never used simulation software to employ it with ease.
Use of virtual equipment enables quick design of virtual line
Designs of the virtual production line used in the simulation can be completed quickly by using different types of virtual equipment templates built-in to the software. |

How to make FJGP4D data?
FJGP4D requires CAD data. Once input CAD data into Process-BOM, FJGP4D forecast automatically worker behavior, posture and machine operation and show real-time 3D execution. FJGP4D also estimate process balance and specification of process plan into table list.
- CAD data as virtual product
- Major CAD data will be converted
- CATIA, Pro-engineer, SolidWorks, etc.
- Original equipment library for factory
- Over 500 library are provided from LEXER.
- Parametric modification will makes them fit to customers original factory plan.
- Assembling order data
- Import from EXCEL
- Generate form product structure
- Drag & drop operation in FJGP4D

|
|
|
| GP4VMS |
|
|
| |
| Reproduces a production site in the virtual space to consider requirements for production preparations in various edit modes. |
| |
|
|
|
| GP4PES |
|
|
| |
| Operates the production site defined in the virtual space to evaluate a daily volume and part supply timing. |
| |
|
|
|
| GP4SGS |
|
|
| |
| A tool to import VRML files exported from CAD, edit product part structures, and convert the format for GP4VMS. |
| |
|
|
|
| GP4SES |
|
|
| |
