57. Reference Factory and Microfactory Demonstrator
Stable section ID: S05-CON-016-SECTION-59 · 25 content blocks
The Reference Factory and Microfactory Demonstrator shall establish a controlled model for producing System05 Components at different manufacturing scales.
The Reference Factory shall demonstrate:
released production data;
material and Supplier controls;
process planning;
tooling and fixtures;
calibrated measurement;
Product identification;
inspection and release;
Nonconformity control;
digital production records;
traceability to installed Products.
The Microfactory demonstrator shall evaluate whether the same essential requirements can be achieved using smaller, regional, or resource-constrained facilities.
It shall identify the minimum required:
equipment capability;
environmental control;
workforce competence;
inspection instruments;
software and data access;
process qualification;
quality oversight;
secure identity issuance.
Distributed production shall not mean uncontrolled local fabrication. Every participating facility shall manufacture from authorized configurations and remain within its verified capability.
The demonstrators should compare centralized and distributed manufacturing for cost, quality, transport, resilience, lead time, maintenance, and regional adaptability.
Products from different facilities shall be evaluated through the same applicable Interface and Conformance requirements.
