Digital manufacturing is one of the core strategies of the
European Manufuture vision, that uses a wide range of
engineering, software and ICT tools that are mutually
networked by a central data management to integrate new
technologies into manufacturing processes as quickly and
efficiently as possible [1]. In a wider context, digital
manufacturing embraces 3D product lifecycle management
(PLM) tools to allow for digital prototyping, adequate process
standards, multiscale simulation, and overall factory data
management [2]. In digital manufacturing, the digital model
of a product is the essence of this concept that could be used
to simulate and analyse the related production activities flow
or to verify different production planning, machining/tool
path, inspection and resource utilisation scenarios
