Method Analysis

Industrial robots may not be off-line programmable, unless their accuracy is improved by a suitable calibration procedure. However, proper calibration is a time-consuming and expensive procedure due to the highly accurate measurement equipment required and due to the significant amount of data that must be collected. These considerations prevent wider application of currently available calibration methods to robots in industrial environment. To provide the necessary tools for the optimization of the calibration process, in this paper, a computer simulation of the robot calibration and a systematic method for the evaluation of this calibration are developed. Simulated experiments are conducted to demonstrate the operation of the proposed method. Analysis of the data obtained in these experiments shows the capability of the simulation for comparison of alternative calibration procedures/set-ups and for prediction of the expected accuracy of the robot after an actual calibration is performed.

Governmental Budgeting

This paper examines certain interactions between American government and business which resulted in important innovations in the areas of budgeting and cost accounting early in the twentieth century. The evidence suggests that budgeting methods were initially developed by municipal reformers of the Progressive era and were subsequently adapted by business for planning and control purposes. In like fashion, standard costing and variance analysis were significant cost accounting techniques born to an industrial environment which came to contribute markedly to a continuing improvement of governmental budgeting procedures.

Further Development

High requirements imposed by the competitive industrial environment determine the development directions of applied manufacturing methods. 3D printing technology, also known as additive manufacturing (AM), currently being one of the most dynamically developing production methods, is increasingly used in many different areas of industry. Nowadays, apart from the possibility of making prototypes of future products, AM is also used to produce fully functional machine parts, which is known as Rapid Manufacturing and also Rapid Tooling. Rapid Manufacturing refers to the ability of the software automation to rapidly accelerate the manufacturing process, while Rapid Tooling means that a tool is involved in order to accelerate the process. Abrasive processes are widely used in many industries, especially for machining hard and brittle materials such as advanced ceramics. This paper presents a review on advances and trends in contemporary abrasive machining related to the application of innovative 3D printed abrasive tools. Examples of abrasive tools made with the use of currently leading AM methods and their impact on the obtained machining results were indicated. The analyzed research works indicate the great potential and usefulness of the new constructions of the abrasive tools made by incremental technologies. Furthermore, the potential and limitations of currently used 3D printed abrasive tools, as well as the directions of their further development are indicated.
