Among the tenets of Smart Manufacturing (SM) or Industry 4.0 (I4.0), digital twin (DT), which represents capabilities virtual representations components and systems, has been cited as biggest technology trend disrupting engineering design today. DTs have in use for years areas such model-based process control predictive maintenance, however moving forward a framework is needed that will support expected pervasiveness DT evolution SM I4.0. A set requirements derived from analysis definitions,...
Digital Twin (DT) is an emerging technology that has recently been cited as underpinning element of the digital transformation. DTs are commonly defined replicas components, systems, products, and services receive data from field to support intelligent decision-making. Although several frameworks for DT application in manufacturing have proposed, there no systematic methodology literature supports development scalable, reusable, interoperable, interchangeable, extensible solutions, while...
Smart manufacturing (SM) systems utilize run-time data to improve productivity via intelligent decision-making and analysis mechanisms on both machine system levels. The increased adoption of cyber-physical in SM leads the comprehensive framework (CPMS) where data-enabled are coupled with resources plant floor. Due their nature, CPMS susceptible cyber-attacks that may cause harm system, products, or even human workers involved this context. Therefore, detecting efficiently timely is a...

An important issue in anomaly detection smart manufacturing systems is the lack of consistency formal definitions anomalies, faults, and attacks. The term used to cover a wide range situations that are addressed by different types solutions. In this letter, we categorize anomalies machines, controllers, networks along with their mechanisms, unify them under common framework aid identification potential main contribution proposed categorization it allows gaps systems.
In current practice, product developers with customized small batch production needs come across the problem of finding capable and flexible manufacturers, whereas manufacturers face underutilization due to inconsistent demand. This paper presents a Production as Service (PaaS) framework connect users (consumers or developers) who have manufacturing existing underutilized resources. PaaS is cloud-based, centralized based on service-oriented architecture that abstracts steps individual...

Manufacturers are constantly looking to enhance the performance of their manufacturing systems by improving ability address disruptions and disturbances, while reducing cost maximizing quantity quality. Even though innovative mechanisms for adaptability flexibility continuously contribute smart evolutionary process, they generally stop short providing a capability coordinated on-line learning. This is especially true when that learning requires exploration outside established operational...
When manufacturing parts using material extrusion additive and anisotropic polymers, the mechanical properties of a manufactured component are strongly dependent on print trajectory orientation. We conduct non-planar slicing optimize trajectories to maximize alignment between deposition direction stress flow induced by predefined load case. The optimization framework considers manufacturability constraints in form uniform layer height line spacing. demonstrate method bearing bracket 5-axis...
The world is in the midst of a new industrial revolution driven by Smart Manufacturing (SM). Though this paradigm promises increased flexibility, product customization, improved quality, efficient energy consumption, and productivity, SM systems are more susceptible to small faults that could cascade into major failures or even cyber-attacks enter plant. Flexibility reactivity/proactivity represent important means enhance systems' reliability, efficiency, robust response faults. Within...

In most industrial additive manufacturing (AM) applications a set of AM machines (AM-Fleet) are used in parallel. An AM-Fleet often consists from various vendors and may include different processes. processes suffer poor repeatability within single build, between builds on the same machine, machine to machine. AM's lack robustness is attributed insufficient in-process monitoring feedback control, as well unknown modeling dynamics, process standards. To effectively monitor control AM-Fleets,...
