Research on an intelligent manufacturing system based on an information-localizing machining mode

To raise the response speed of manufacturing enterprises to the dynamic change of market, this paper presents a new machining mode of information-localization and an intelligent manufacturing system based on that mode. Feasible solutions to the key problems involved in this mode and system, such as the acquirement of workpiece contour information, fast calculation of workpiece state, and adaptive machining control based on the actual state information of the workpiece, etc. are given. Experimental verification has been carried out. The theoretical analysis and experimental results show that the proposed method is feasible. It provides a new effective approach to the fast-response manufacturing of complex parts with small lot size.
