Designing a Flexible Manufacturi̇ng Module for Reconstruction of a Second-Hand Car

Abstract

Based on a comparative analysis of algorithms and models for the design of flexible manufacturing systems (FMS) for the reconstruction and repair of second-hand cars, the purpose and main issues of the research article were determined. The proposed method provides for the development and reconstruction of vehicles that are physically and morally worn out and need to be maintained and redesigned. The aim of the article is to develop a flexible manufacturing module (FMM) for the automated reconstruction of various second-hand car models using an integrated computer-aided design and production system (CAD / CAM). The proposed solution prevents a large amount of the client's (car owner's) time and ensures that the work will be done within the assigned time frame. It also determines the cost at the initial stage, avoiding subsequent additional costs to the client. To implement the tasks at the initial stage, the layout scheme of the FMM was proposed and its mechatronic elements were selected. Based on CAD / CAM technology, the process of automating the design of innovative coatings and assembly of a second-hand car was carried out. Keywords: CAD / CAM technology, flexible manufacturing module, automation of design and assembly, second-hand car, reconstruction.
