Abstract:

This study aimed to build a framework to define key attributes in the tacit knowledge of craft-based manufacturing processes, used to update the technique through digital interventions. Currently, with the integration of CAD/CAM technologies into craft-based processes, the development of new products is possible, but it is important to recognize the prior tacit knowledge and how they can be integrated with digital manufacturing. through a systematic literature review methodology by bibliometric technique focus on identifying case studies. Web of Science and Scopus databases was tool search and the information was analyzed in nvivo® software for content analysis. The review indicated that technological interventions in craft-based processes take into account aspects present in the skills and experience of expert people who master a technique, as well as manual gestures, strength, and movements performed during activities of the crafting process, and that allows the transformation of a material into an artifact. On the other hand, the content analysis allowed tacit knowledge to be categorized into four key attributes: material knowledge, technique knowledge, skills, and body movements. It is concluded that to carry out a digital intervention in a craft-based process that allows guarantees the reliability of the technique, the responsible integration of the tacit knowledge of the technicians or craftsmen who dominate the process is necessary. In addition, it is concluded that despite the efforts made in the studies, not all tacit knowledge can be translated or integrated into digitization or automation, especially regarding decision-making and body gestures.
