“…The three-dimensional probe can simultaneously sense the change in three coordinates of the measured points, but its price is high, the intellectual property is protected, and the key links such as error detection and correction are kept secret. This is not conducive to more efficiently controlling the entire closed-loop production process [26], which limits the further popularization and application of the geometric precision control technology of spiral bevel gears.…”

In order to improve the tooth surface geometric accuracy and transmission quality of hypoid gears, a new digitized reverse correction method is proposed based on the measurement data from a one-dimensional probe. The minimization of tooth surface geometrical deviations is realized from the perspective of mathematical analysis and reverse engineering. Combining the analysis of complex tooth surface generation principles and the measurement mechanism of one-dimensional probes, the mathematical relationship between the theoretical designed tooth surface, the actual machined tooth surface and the deviation tooth surface is established, the mapping relation between machine-tool settings and tooth surface deviations is derived, and the essential connection between the accurate calculation of tooth surface deviations and the reverse correction method of machine-tool settings is revealed. Furthermore, a reverse correction model of machine-tool settings is built, a reverse correction strategy is planned, and the minimization of tooth surface deviations is achieved by means of the method of numerical iterative reverse solution. On this basis, a digitized reverse correction system for hypoid gears is developed by the organic combination of numerical control generation, accurate measurement, computer numerical processing, and digitized correction. Finally, the correctness and practicability of the digitized reverse correction method are proved through a reverse correction experiment. The experimental results show that the tooth surface geometric deviations meet the engineering requirements after two trial cuts and one correction.

“…In order to meet the customer needs, more and more advanced manufacturing technologies and management methods have been introduced in this period for improving the flexibility, responsiveness, effectiveness and efficiency of the manufacturing system. For example, computer-based technologies, i.e., computer-aided design and manufacturing (CAD/CAM) [21], virtual manufacturing (VM) [22], intelligent manufacturing (IM) [5], networked manufacturing [8], flexible manufacturing [4], etc., and advanced manufacturing planning and management methods, i.e., lean manufacturing [23], Just-in-Time (JIT) [24], total quality management (TQM) [23], material requirement planning (MRP) [25], etc. Those advanced manufacturing technologies and management methods helped to transform the manufacturing enterprises from mass production to mass customization in order to meet the customer needs through higher quality, flexibility and shorter lead time [20].…”

In order to survive in this competitive and ever changing market, manufacturers have to improve and enhance the competitiveness, flexibility, responsiveness and sustainability with the application of the cutting-edge technologies and innovative management methods. New concepts, i.e., Intelligent manufacturing, flexible manufacturing, agile manufacturing, network manufacturing, green manufacturing and Industry 4.0, etc., have been proposed and developed in recent years based upon the newest and most advanced manufacturing technologies and Information and Communication technologies (ICT). This paper presents a new concept: Small-scale Intelligent Manufacturing System (SIMS), and the comparison with previous concepts and the benefits of SIMS are discussed in this paper. Different from the previous research works which mainly emphasize the technological integration for improving the flexibility and intelligence of an individual manufacturing system, this paper, however, focuses on and discusses the supply chain problems arisen from a holistic perspective. The features of the supply chain for realizing small-scale intelligent production and responsive distribution are discussed, and the limitation and future works are also discussed and suggested latter in this paper.

The manufacturing error of cycloid gear is the key factor affecting the transmission precision and meshing characteristics of cycloidal-pin gear in RV reducer. Taking the RV cycloidal-pin gear pair transmission as the object, a meshing contact analysis method is proposed for RV cycloidal-pin gear transmission considering the influence of manufacturing error. The modified tooth profile of cycloid gear is effectively superimposed and transformed by taking the influence of tooth profile and pitch errors of cycloidal gear into consideration, and the theoretical contact analysis model of cycloidal-pin gear transmission is established. By analyzing and solving the meshing contact model, the characteristic parameters such as the meshing point position, meshing backlash and transmission error of cycloidal-pin gear between the meshing contact surfaces are obtained under the influence of manufacturing error, and the effective pre-control of the tooth profile and the meshing contact performance is realized. The verification analysis results show that the manufacturing error has a great influence on the transmission accuracy of RV cycloidal-pin gear, among which the tooth pitch error has the greatest influence on the transmission error, which is in a positive proportion. And the influence of tooth profile error on transmission error is second. The meshing contact analysis method considers the interactive influence of the manufacturing error and modification shape of tooth profile on the meshing contact status of RV transmission; the cycloidal tooth profile can be obtained which is more suitable for engineering practice. This analysis method can provide the theoretical support and technical means for profile modification design, motion accuracy improvement and load-bearing contact analysis of RV transmission.
