Rough Approximation

<p>The application of robot simulation tools for modelling, analysis and improvement of existing industrial manufacturing cells is presented with reference to the development and implementation of the digital factory concept. A real case study of aerosol can packaging and palletizing cell scenario in the metal can manufacturing industry for containing food and products is used as a reference in this paper. For studying manual aerosol can packaging and palletizing conditions of the worker, a detailed time and motion analysis of workers is carried out. On the basis of cycle time analysis results, an alternative to the manual operation, a more sophisticated automated packaging and palletizing system is suggested. A proposed system which uses a robotic manipulator including automated production machine and devices are also developed and tested. The viability of the suggested system is checked through simulation and cycle time analysis. A fuzzy logic software, MATLAB is employed in order to analyse the actual system’s behaviour in terms of productivity, and utilization of the available facilities. The 3D simulation software, DELMIA V6  is additionally employed to perform a detailed design phase of the manufacturing cell. From the simulation results, this gives a rough approximation that the production of one robotized manipulator, and automated packaging and palletizing cell is equal to the production of about 4.3 manual packaging and palletizing cells. These results have shown the need for change to automation in the aerosol can packaging and palletizing system.</p>

Traditional Manufacturing

Growth of nature is an additive process that gives sustainable existence to the structures developed; on the other hand, traditional manufacturing techniques can be wasteful as they are subtractive. Additive manufacturing produces almost nil waste and accordingly preserves raw materials resulting in cost reduction for the procurement of the same. It will also cut down on the carbon emissions that are usually generated from industrial manufacturing. Additive printed objects are lighter as well, making them more efficient, especially when used in the automobile and aerospace industry. Further, the intrinsic characteristics and the promising merits of additive manufacturing process are expected to provide a solution to improve the sustainability of the process. This chapter comprehensively reports on various additive manufacturing processes and their sustainable applications for green technology. The state of the art, opportunities, and future, related to sustainable applications of additive manufacturing have been presented at length.

Measure Of Uncertainty

Fine machining processes are of great importance in automotive series production, e.g. the machining of valve guide and seat in the cylinder head of a combustion engine. In industrial manufacturing processes, disturbances are inevitable and provide a measure of uncertainty in each production step. Increasingly, the influence of such uncertainties is being evaluated using simulation models. In this paper, a modeling approach for simulation of multi-stage fine machining processes with step tools is presented and investigations regarding influence of uncertainty caused by disturbances are performed.

Abstract Metal oxide nanoparticles (MONPs) such as TiO2 and ZnO have been engineered for various industrial manufacturing processes with an annual global production exceeding millions of tonnes. Among MONPs, environmental exposure to ZnO nanoparticles may cause a significant toxicity due to bioaccumulation in the human body. Therefore, detection and removal of ZnO nanoparticles in the aqueous environment is highly desired. In this work, 3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane (APTES) was chosen to treat aqueous suspensions containing ZnO and other metal oxide nanoparticles. APTES first formed a thin surface layer on ZnO nanoparticles and continued in branching polymerization to reach out towards other APTES-ZnO nanoparticles. Eventually, a web-like sediment settled down onto the bottom. A high removal efficiency over 99% has attained for ZnO nanoparticles in aqueous suspension. The sedimentation was selective towards ZnO nanoparticles, due to the amino group of ATPES preferentially interacting with ZnO to form a sturdy condensation coagulate. Other MONPs (such as Al2O3, CaO, CeO2, CuO and TiO2) did not form any web-like sediment with APTES but could co-precipitate with the ZnO nanoparticles. Meso-tetra(carboxyphenyl)porphyrin (TCPP) could be added as an indicator to co-precipitate with the sediment, with its color changing from red purple to bright green during the formation of APTES-TCPP-ZnO sediment.

Grinding And Polishing

One of the fundamental objectives of microstructural examination of manufactured materials is to gain a more complete understanding of the relationships between the manufacturing processes, the microstructure and texture of the material, and the product's performance. This objective, however, can only be achieved if the examination specimens are repeatably produced and are free of thermal, mechanical and chemical alterations, as well as artifacts, damage, or defects resulting from the specimen preparation process. It is also imperative that surface finish of the specimen be appropriate for the microscopical techniques to be used. The preparation process must provide specimens in a timely fashion, generally within a few tens of minutes or at most a few hours for typical industrial/manufacturing situations. Although designed for much harder more rigid materials, the general grinding and polishing techniques used in petrographic and metallographic specimen preparation can also be used for plastics and polymers. ASTM Committee E-4 on Metallography has a task group (TG-E04.01.05) which is preparing a standard guide for the preparation of polymeric specimens based on the ASTM E3-95 standard.
