Abstract

P3D is an injection moulding company that uses a technology called PRIM® (Printed Injection Mould) to create products for its customers. Different from traditional moulding companies, P3D’s main business model resolves around an efficient workflow and fast delivery of products to its customers. At the moment P3D is able to quickly fabricate and deliver its products be-cause of a small team of skilled designers and engineers who have lots of expertise in the field of injection moulding. Unfortunately, relying on the expertise of its employees, a lot of data about the company’s workflow is memorised or written down. This poses a problem as P3D would like to grow in the future and will not be able to entirely rely on memorised or analogue data.The goal of this project is to create a data management system (DMS) that digitises information about P3D its workflow and saves it in an easily accessible centralised system.
