This paper presents simulation of multibody manufacturing systems with the support of numerical tools. The dynamic and cybernetic characteristics of driving system are discussed. Simple prototype models of robot arm and machine tool’s driving system are quickly established in Computer Aided Design (CAD) software inwhich the whole specification of material, inertia and so on are involved. The prototypes therefore are simulated in RecurDyn- a Computer Aided Engineering (CAE) software. The models are driven by controllers built in Matlab/Simulink via co-simulation. The results are suitable with theory and able to exploied for expansion of complexly effective factors. The research indicates that dynamic analysis and control could be done via numerical method instead of directly dynamic equation creation for multibody manufacturing systems.

This chapter presents the rapid prototyping and manufacturing concepts applied as means to reducing time between jewellery designs and manufacturing process. Different processes on jewellery modelling production are presented. Nowadays, the use of technologies as CAD/CAM - Computer Aided Design and Manufacturing in high production companies are very disseminated. However, the implementation of these resources at the design and manufacturing processes of jewels and fashion accessories, in small and medium size businesses, is still insipient. As reference, is presented the situation observed in small and medium companies located in Minas Gerais, Brazil.
