Outline
Introduction and Welcome
- Scott MacKenzie introduces the podcast, emphasizing its focus on industry professionals and their innovations.
- Scott welcomes listeners and highlights the passion and dedication of industry professionals.
- The podcast is broadcasting from the OMG q1 meeting, a gathering of problem solvers passionate about education, collaboration, and innovation.
- Scott introduces Greg Porter and Chris Tranchina, who are part of the digital twin Consortium and have presented earlier at the meeting.
Background of Greg Porter and Chris Tranchina
- Greg Porter introduces himself as a senior systems architect with Sev1Tech.
- Chris Tranchina describes himself as a 3D animator and modeler, brought in for real-time expertise in rendering the digital twin.
- Scott MacKenzie asks about the digital thread and how it ensures data trust by leaving data in its authoritative system.
- Greg explains the digital thread's role in connecting source systems through APIs and exposing metadata to understand data relationships.
Collaboration with LSU and NASA
- Greg discusses the partnership with LSU to build a digital twin of the Michoud Assembly Facility, funded by a NASA grant.
- The facility is used for assembling rockets for the Artemis program, including the Space Launch System, the Exploration Upper Stage, and the Orion spacecraft.
- The objective is to simulate the build of the rockets by understanding the current state of the facility through 3D laser scanning.
- The project is still a work in progress, with roughly half of the facility scanned so far.
Challenges and Progress in the Digital Twin Project
- Scott MacKenzie inquires about the challenges faced in digitizing the facility without existing blueprints.
- Greg explains the importance of understanding the current state of the building to simulate the build process.
- The project includes scanning platforms, tooling, flight hardware, and the building itself to create a detailed digital model.
- Chris adds that the digital twin helps in optimizing manufacturing processes and addressing issues like missing equipment.
Simulation and Optimization of Manufacturing Processes
- The digital twin is used to simulate complex lifts involving cranes to ensure efficient and safe operations.
- Scott asks about the efficiency of current manufacturing processes and the role of experienced professionals.
- Chris explains that while experienced professionals are valuable, new technologies help optimize processes for larger and more powerful rockets.
- The digital twin also addresses issues like missing equipment by providing real-time location tracking and optimizing factory workflows.
Future Goals and Success Criteria
- Scott asks about the timeline and success criteria for the digital twin project.
- Greg states that success would be achieving a full replica of the Michoud Assembly Facility, capable of simulating the build of rockets.
- The project is expected to continue for several years, with the ultimate goal of optimizing manufacturing processes and ensuring efficient operations.
- The digital twin will help in planning and executing complex lifts, reducing the risk of equipment breakdowns and improving overall efficiency.
Contact Information and Closing Remarks
- Scott MacKenzie provides contact information for Greg and Chris, encouraging listeners to reach out on LinkedIn or via email.
- Greg's email is greg.porter@sev1tech.com, and Chris's email is christopher.trencina@sev1tech.com.
- Scott thanks Gary for his contributions to the podcast and emphasizes the importance of the OMG q1 meeting in fostering collaboration and innovation.
- The podcast concludes with a call to action for listeners to engage with the OMG community and explore the digital twin project further.
