Abstract | Many countries endorse technology transfer to reduce cost and to increase employment efficiency and productivity. Technology transfer requires partners’ collaboration and readiness from the receiving end. Due to the difficulty in the production process and the complexity of the information and communication, knowledge and technology transfer is introduced to help deal with the present challenges of manufacturing. Knowledge and technology transfer is an effective method of development that supports production strategy. Therefore, this research aims to develop a framework to assess the level and key factors for the knowledge and technology transfer to implement CAD/CAM/CAE system in manufacturing in Thai society. Data gathering through questionnaire was done with questions applied from the related empirical researches. The content validity and the test of reliability were verified by experts in CAD/CAM/CAE field. A pilot test was conducted using the questionnaire from the sample groups who use CAD/CAM/CAE technology in organization. The data were analyzed by various types of statistic in order to identify the extent of technology transferred. The background information will be presented in order for the respondents to have a full understanding of the study. Lastly, a guideline of the levels and key factors affecting the knowledge and technology transfer; and a practical guideline for implementation of CAD/CAM/CAE system in context of manufa. |
