What are the characteristics and technologies of intelligent manufacturing?

Intelligent manufacturing is a man-machine integrated intelligent system composed of intelligent machines and human experts. It is characterized in that:

1, virtual reality technology

This is the supporting technology to realize virtual manufacturing and one of the key technologies to realize high-level man-machine integration. Virtual reality technology is based on computer and integrates signal processing, animation technology, intelligent reasoning, prediction, simulation and multimedia technology.

With the help of all kinds of audio-visual and sensing equipment, various processes and objects in real life can be displayed virtually, so that the manufacturing process and future products can also be simulated, so that people can get completely real feelings from the senses and vision. But its characteristic is that it can be changed at will according to people's wishes. This new generation of intelligent interface combining man and machine is a remarkable feature of intelligent manufacturing.

2. Self-organizing super flexibility

Each component of the intelligent manufacturing system can form an optimal structure according to the needs of the task, and its flexibility is not only manifested in the operation mode, but also in the structural form, so it is called super-flexibility and has the same biological characteristics as a group of human experts.

3, learning and maintenance

Intelligent manufacturing system can continuously enrich knowledge base in practice and has self-learning function. At the same time, in the process of operation, it can diagnose faults by itself and has the ability of self-troubleshooting and self-maintenance. This feature enables intelligent manufacturing system to optimize itself and adapt to various complex environments.

Intelligent technology:

1. New sensing technology-a sensing technology with high sensing sensitivity, accuracy, reliability and environmental adaptability, which adopts new principles, new materials and new technologies (such as quantum measurement, nano-polymer sensing, optical fiber sensing, etc. ), as well as weak sensing signal extraction and processing technology.

2. Modular and embedded control system design technology-modular hardware design technology with different structures, micro-kernel operating system and open system software technology, configuration language and man-machine interface technology, and engineering software platform technology to realize unified data format and unified programming environment.

3. Advanced control and optimization technologies-multistage performance evaluation technology of industrial process, modeling technology based on a large number of data, large-scale high-performance multi-objective optimization technology, large-scale complex equipment system simulation technology, high-order derivative continuous motion planning, electronic transmission and other precision motion control technologies.

Its development prospect:

1, artificial intelligence technology. Because the goal of IMS is to simulate the intelligent activities of human experts in manufacturing industry with computers, so as to replace or extend part of human mental work, artificial intelligence technology has become one of the key technologies of IMS. IMS is closely related to artificial intelligence technology (expert system, artificial neural network, fuzzy logic).

2. Concurrent engineering. Concurrent engineering is an important technical method for manufacturing industry. Applying it to IMS will minimize the blindness and repeatability of product design.

3. Information network technology. Information network technology is the support of "intelligent integration" of manufacturing process system and all links. Information network is also a channel for manufacturing information and knowledge flow.
