Abstract

There is provided a method for optimizing a manufacturing process of a new part. The method includes executing, by a system configured to drive the manufacturing process, a set of manufacturing functions. Executing these functions include receiving data associated with one or more field parts similar to the new part, and generating, based on the data, a forecast representative of a longevity of the one or more parts. The method further includes generating a digital thread forming a surrogate model for the new part, based on the forecast. Further, the method includes creating the set of manufacturing functions based on the surrogate model and manufacturing the new part according to the set of manufacturing functions.
