A Reliable Turning Process by the Early Use of a Deep Simulation Model at Several Manufacturing Stages

Abstract

Abstract:The next future using machine tools will be dominated by highly flexible and interconnected systems, in order to achieve the required productivity, accuracy and reliability. Nowadays, distortion and vibration problems are easily solved for the most common cases by sing models based on equations describing the physical laws dominating the machining process; however additional efforts are needed to overcome the gap between scientific research and the real manufacturing problems. In fact, there is an increasing interest in developing simulation packages based on "deep knowledge and models" that aid the machine designer, the production engineer, or machinists to get the best of their machines. This article proposes a systematic methodology to reduce problems in machining by means of a simulation utility, which recognizes, collects and uses the main variables of the system/process as input data, and generates objective results that help in the proper decision-making. Direct benefits by such an application are found in a) the fixture/clamping optimal design, b) the machine tool configuration, c) the definition of chatter free optimum cutting conditions and the right programming of cutting tool path at the Computer Aided Manufacturing (CAM) stage. The information and knowledge-based approach showed successful results in several local manufacturing companies.

A Biomimetic Approach for Designing a Full External Breast Prosthesis: Post-Mastectomy

“…In the future we intend to develop a hybrid system that considers all the components of the design process or the development of a program in the "deep-knowledge and models" philosophy that would help us in measurement, scaling, modeling and manufacturing for prostheses similar to those presented in [58]. This methodology reduces the process input variables and generates results for decision making or manufacturing design plans [59]. Software of this type predicts magnitudes from the measurement-model by involving static and dynamic behavior of the design parts.…”

Corporate identity communication planning: recognition of a sports equipment brand

“…One of the biases of industry 4.0 was the internal issue of the organization, so it can be mentioned the internal optimization of communication through it. Because of this, communication processes are faster, with better team coordination, training adapted to the virtual environment and even changes in operations (URBIKAIN et al, 2016).…”

Bridging the gap between student instruction and advanced research: Educational software tool for manufacturing learning

“…However, on machining systems and their modeling, the literature is rather scarce. In fact, prediction models toward obtaining optimum cutting parameters are more intended for industrial purposes [24] rather than for learning. In [26], the authors take the first step toward introducing knowledge‐based algorithms in student instruction.…”
