Integrating the cell
Integrating the cell into a larger manufacturing system is basically a step up the system hierarchy of figure 3-5.Now the problems become ones concerning the cell as a whole (or, to use the earlier lexicon, a module). This purpose of this section is not to provide a detailed set of guidelines for the system design but to consider the most important features of the system and to discuss the relationship between the cells and the system.

5.1. System Definition

The system should be usable as a building block for a comp ....etc

Due to innovations in sensor technology and rising complexity of manufacturing processes, increasingly more sensors are distributed throughout manufacturing and production systems to maintain the production performance, to ensure the life-cycle quality of products, and to improve the quality of management and service. This system-wide deployment of sensing devices is referred to as a distributed sensor system. Distributed sensor systems have resulted in a data-rich manufacturing environment and provide us unprecedented opportunities for quality ....etc

Todayâ„¢s information systems in government and commercial sectors are distributed and highly interconnected via local area and wide area computer networks. While indispensable, these networks provide potential avenues of attack by hackers, international competitors, and other adversaries. The increasingly frequent attacks on Internet visible systems are attempts to breach information security requirements for protection of data. Intrusion detection technology allows organizations to protect themselves fr ....etc

Materials

The majority of gears are composed of carbon and low-alloy steels, including carburised steels. Among the carburised steels used in gears are 1018, 1524, 4026, 4118, 4320, 4620, 4820, 8620 and 9310. The intended gear use will dictate the material used in its creation. For example gears to be used in food processing are made of stainless steels or nickel-base alloys because of their corrosion resistance.


Gear manufacturing processes

There are multiple ways in which gear blanks can be shaped through the cutting and fin ....etc

Abstract:
Mass customization manufacturing (MCM) has been gaining recognition as an industrial revolution in the 21st century. This paper presents innovative approaches in realizing and exercising MCM in theoretical and practical applications. Strategies of generalized production line platform and modularization are explored to support dynamic reconfigurations of MCM. NISTâ„¢s XML-based Shop Data information integration specification is utilized to derive a data driven reconfigurable MCM modeling methodology. A simulation model of a Boei ....etc
