The advanced computer aided engineering and manufacturing project (ACE) describes a new, highly advanced system for the efficient production of mechanisms and parts for the aerospace and other industries. It required only moderate investment in machining centres, automated workpiece handling and tool changing and management and control systems. In the case studied it has considerably raised output per operator, turnover of stock and work in progress, greatly cut manufacturing lead time, reduced in-progress scrap and eliminated assembly failures and rejection by customers.
