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

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

Safety in the construction industry has always
been a major issue. Wherever reliable records are
available, construction is found to be one of the
most dangerous on safety and health criteria,
particularly in developing countries. Though much
improvement in construction safety has been
achieved, the industry still continues to lag behind
most other industries with regard to ....etc

Introduction

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 opport ....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.
