LASER AND COMPUTER-BASED SYSTEMS HAVE THE POTENTIAL TO IMPROVE THE WAY PRODUCTION INFORMATION IS RECEIVED AND USED BY PRODUCTION PERSONNEL. THE SPEED, ACCURACY, FLEXIBILITY, REPORTING, DOCUMENTATION, AND PROCESS EVOLUTION CAPABILITY OF THIS ELECTRONIC TOOLING HAVE A MAJOR ROLE IN ACHIEVING INCREASED PRODUCTIVITY AND QUALITY, WHICH ARE THE GOALS OF TQM PROGRAMS. THE IMPLICATIONS OF A LASER AND COMPUTER- BASED SYSTEM WHICH REPLACES PLY PLACEMENT TEMPLATES ARE DISCUSSED IN THE CONTEXT OF THE GOALS OF A TQM PROGRAM INVOLVING HAND LAYUP OF PREPREG COMPOSITES.
