  • This study is aimed at examining the relationship among the advanced manufacturing technology(AMT) types adopted in Korea, necessary strategic management activities for the selected AMT types and the performance of the AMT introduced. In order to identify such relationship, multivariate analyses are used based on the survey data collected from industry types such as metal processing and assembly, automobile parts, automobile assembly. electric and electronic devices. The study results indicate the following: (1) companies using CIM or ERP tend to be more prepared in terms of human resources; (2) companies adopted CIM and MRPII tend to demonstrate higher performance in terms of both organizational effectiveness and operational efficiency; (3) companies which adopted JIT or ERP perform better in terms of operational efficiency.

  • It is difficult to realize automation of welding of lattice type in shipbuilding and assembly processing of shipbuilding and steel structures. Usually, the welding parts of lattice type are welded manually. So there are limitations in continuous and stable quality controls and in increase in productivity because the welding quality depends on worker's skill. That is, automation in welding is necessary. This paper shows shows the development results of a moblie robot for welding of lattice type. Specially. algorithms for its mobile speed and seam tracking controls are introduced.

  • The welding distortion of a hull structure in the shipbuilding industry is inevitable at each assembly stage. The geometric inaccuracy caused by the distortion tends to preclude the introduction of automation and mechanization and needs the additional man-hours for the adjusting work at the following assembly stage. To overcome this problem, a distortion control method should be applied. For this purpose, it is necessary to develop an accurate prediction method which can explicitly account for the influence of various factors on the welding distortion. In order to minimize the weld-induced angular distortion in thick weldments, this paper proposes the optimum groove design for various plate thicknesses as the distortion control method. The validity of this method has been substantiated by a number of numerical simulations and experiments.

  • A fully automated cost estimation system(FACES) has been developed. Since speed, accuracy, and consistency are essential factors in automating a cost estimation, the use of computers in cost estimation system(CES) has grown rapidly in the last few years. FACES is a micro computer based cost estimation system that employs a manufacturing knowledge base. A Group Technology(GT) based part classification and coding(C&C) scheme is used to automate the process planning aspects of cost estimation. Variant process planning methods are employed to generate workstation routings from form features of the part. The system has been tested for an assembly of six machined parts. Results indicate that the system could provide a substantial improvement in accuracy, productivity, and performance over the more traditional full dialog approach to cost estimation. It also provides a good foundation for a factory automation by using a common GT based database through design to production.

  • Recently, optical 3D scanners are frequently used for inspection of parts, assembly and manufacturing tooling. One of the advantages is being able to measure a large area fast and accurately. Owing to recent advances in high-resolution image sensing technology, high power illumination technology, and high speed microprocessors, the accuracy and resolution of optical 3D scanners are being improved rapidly. In order to measure the entire geometry of objects, multiple scans have to be performed in various setups by moving either the objects or the scanner. This paper introduces novel methods to measure the entire geometry of objects by automatically changing the setups and then aligning the scanned data in a single coordinate system.

  • High-rise buildings often can accommodate the population of small horizontal cities. The investment in high-rise buildings is considerable and therefore a rapid return on investment is necessary. The immediate availability of high-rise buildings can be achieved by automated prefabrication of highly finished modules and their instant on-site assembly by robotic and automated construction sites. A high-rise building as a vertical city can be considered as a sophisticated organism that can constantly change throughout its lifecycle in response to economic growth, demographic change, and environmental pressures. To date, many new urban high-rise developments claim to be "vertical cities", yet few represent this important characteristic. This article analyzed the technological readiness and innovations in the field of construction automation and robotics including single-task construction robots, automated on-site construction factories, and ambient assisted living. These technological advances enable the realization of future vertical cities that are able to continuously grow and transform in terms of form and function. Finally, the article proposes a visionary archetype of vertical city in the name of "dynamic vertical urbanism" that is easy to expand vertically and horizontally in order to achieve instant availability and full life cycle resilience thanks to advanced building technologies.

  • This paper presents a hierarchical real-time operation control and monitoring scheme of the FMS/CIM center which has been implemented at the Automation and Systems Research Institute of Seoul National University. The hierarchical structure of the whole scheme consists of three lavers. The upper layer is in charge of on-line scheduling, computer network control, shop-floor monitoring and command generation for AGV dispatching, machining, assembly, inspection, set-up, etc. The middle layer has six modules, which are installed in the FMS host computer with the upper layer and run on the multi-tasking basis. Each module is connected to one of six cell controllers distributed in the FMS model plant and transfers operation command down to each cell controller through the Ethernet/TCP-IP local area network. The lower layer is comprised of six cell control software modules for machining cell, assembly cell, inspection cell, set-up stations. AS/RS and AGV. Each cell controller reports the status of the manufacturing facilites to the middle layer as well as ecxecuting the appropriate sequence control of the manufacturing processes.

  • In this paper, we implement the function of the IEEE802.2LLC(logical link control) sublayer one of the 7layers in MAP(manufacturing automation protocol), a standard communication protocol for manufacturing automation. With the assembly language we designed the class 3 function based on the IEEE standards and verified on the network adaptor hardware. In this experiment, we tested the function using the simplified variables considering that the retransmission value was chosen to be 1 and the life-time of the transmission variable infinite. According to the result of the service procedures, we confirmed that user data were transmitted to the corresponding station without any error.
