Simulation is known to be a valuable tool for design and operation of Flexible Manufacturing Systems(FMSs) under study. However, in order for simulation to be useful, lots of knowledges about the behavior of system to be designed, statistics for output analysis, modeling techniques and a specific simulation language are required by the simulationist. In this paper a way to build simulation support system for nonexperts at simulation will be described and a simulation support system for FMS design and operation developed by the authors will be demonstrated.

A FMS is a typical discrete event system exhibiting concurrency, asynchronicity and non-determinism. To represent a FMS with those characteristics, Colored and Timed Petri Nets is defined and the modeling procedure is provided in this paper. To analyze and evaluate the performance of a FMS, a simulation software is developed and applied to SNU FMS/CM Center. This software enables to detect the bottleneck machine and decide the optimal direction in case of the expansion of a FMS.

The flexibility as well as the stiffness is required to perform mechanical function of a structure such as compliant mechanisms, which can be applied to MEMS(Micro-Electro-Mechanical Systems), flexible manufacturing devices, and design for no assembly. In this paper, the optimal design problem to achieve both structural flexibility and stiffness is formulated using multi-objective function, and the optimization problem is resolved by using Finite Element Method(FEM) and Sequential Linear Programming(SLP). Design examples of compliant mechanisms are presented to validate the design method.

In recent years, mechanical systems such as high speed vehicles and railway trains moving on elastic beam structures have become a very important issue to consider. In this paper, a general approach, which can predict the dynamic behavior of a constrained mechanical system moving on a flexible beam structure, is proposed. Various supporting conditions for the foundation support are considered for the elastic beam structure. The elastic structure is assumed to be a non-uniform and linear Bernoulli-Euler beam with a proportional damping effect. Combined differential-algebraic equation of motion is derived using the multi-body dynamics theory and the finite element method. The proposed equations of motion can be solved numerically using the generalized coordinate partitioning method and predictor-corrector algorithm, which is an implicit multi-step integration method.

A completely separated functional FMS (Flexible Manufacturing Systems), or a partly separated functional FMS, should be constructed because a fully functional FMS, where each machine has all of the tools required for procesing various kinds of jobs, is superflous and wasteful in meeting the multiform and changeable demands of comsumers in a flexible manner. The effective methods are presented in this study for allocating the tools to each machine in a two-machine flow shop type FMS to meet the above demands and to maximize the utilization of the FMS. The methods for a completely separated functional FMS having no duplicated tools and a partly separated functional FMS having some duplicated tools are proposed in this paper. Some simulation results clarify that utilization of the FMS by this methods is as high as the fully functional FMS when the number of jobs is large.

오늘날, 생산성 증대와 품질 향상을 목적으로 산업용 로봇의 사용이 증대되면서 다양한 생산현장에서의 유연성과 적응성이 크게 요구되고 있는 실정이다. 그러나, 현재의 산업용 로봇은 end-effector의 dexterity의 부족으로 그 사용에 제한을 받고 있다. 이를 해결하기 위해 다지(multi-fingered), 다관절(articulated) 로봇손(robotic hands)의 도입이 필요하게 되었는데 이는 전체 로봇시스템의 능력과 유연성을 증가시킬 수 있을 것이다. 현재의 Flexible Manufacturing Workcell은 보통 한 대의 로봇팔과 많은 특수 용도의 고가의 tool로 구성되어 있으나 일반적인 모든 작업에 제한없이 모두 적용하기는 매우 어렵다. 그러므로, 다지, 다관절 로봇손의 개발 및 그 지능 제어의 실현은 작업에 따르는 불필요한 tool의 교환을 방지하여 비용과 시간을 절약함으로써 생산성을 극대화시킬 수 있다. 따라서, 본 연구에서는 Flexible Automation을 위한 다지, 다관절 로봇손의 설계 및 제작에 관한 방법을 제시하고자 한다.

This paper addresses the parts route selection and economic design in flexible manufactuirng system (FMS). Parts are processed through several stage workstations according to operation sequences. The machine of each workstation can do multiple operation functions. And the operation stage of a part can be processed in several workstations, which are non-identical in functional performance. The objective of this paper is to determine the processing routes of parts, number of machine at each workstation, number of vehicle and makespan time. Two models are suggested. One is assumed that the operation stage of parts can be processed at the only one among several available workstations. Other is assumed that the operation stage of parts is allowed to be processed at several workstations. Parts are transported by automated guided vehicles (AGVs). The decision criteria is to minimize the sum of processing cost, travel cost, setup cost and overhead cost. The formulation of models is represented. A solution algorithm is suggested, and a numerical example is shown.

In recent years there has been increasing interest in the issue of process centering in manufacturing process, The traditional process capability indices Cp, Cpk and Cpu are used to provide measure of process performance, but these indices do not represent the issue of process centering. A new measure of the process capability index Cpm is proposed that takes into account the proximity to the target value as well as the process variation when assessing process performance. However, Cpm only considers acceptance cost for deviation from target value within specification limits, do not includes economic consideration for rejected items. This paper proposes flexible process performance measures that considered quadratic loss function caused by quality deviation within specification limits, rejection cost associated with the disposition of rejected items, and inspection cost. In this model disposition of rejected items are considered under perfect corrective procedures and the absence of perfect corrective procedures.

Recently, the application of microservice architecture has been increasing as information systems have shifted to cloud environments. The purpose of this paper was to analyze the case of applying microservice architecture to MES in the manufacturing field, summarize the results of how it was applied in practice, and find out the effects of the application. Based on the improvement project by applying microservice architecture to the existing steel manufacturing MES, 11 principles of microservice application were derived through literature research, and the implementation process and results were summarized according to these principles. In addition, through a comparison of systems in the service industry and the manufacturing industry, we investigated why the application of microservices was more active in the service industry and whether the application in the manufacturing industry can be expected to have the same effect. We also evaluated the results and changes in the overall system after implementation. In particular, we analyzed the SR (Service Request) processing status of users' requests for system changes and operators' requests to see how much the lead time was reduced. The results showed that 8 out of 11 microservice application principles were properly implemented according to the principles, but the remaining 3 were not applicable due to practical difficulties and organizational circumstances. Despite not following all of the principles, the project was able to be implemented without any problems, and the most noticeable change as a result of the microservices architecture was that the lead time was reduced by 9 days compared to the previous system. This proves that it is possible to quickly adapt to customer requirements, and it also proves that the system is more flexible and scalable than the existing monolithic system.

제조 클라우드는 여러 공장이 연결되어 단일 공장처럼 구성되어 사용자의 요구사항에 유연하게 대처할 수 있는 새로운 제조 패러다임이다. 이러한 기능을 제공하는 제조 클라우드 시스템은 클라우드 컴퓨팅, 사물인터넷, 인공지능과 같은 컴퓨팅 기술을 활용하여 분산되어 있는 제조 시설 간의 협업을 통한 유연 생산에서 안정성, 고신뢰성, 연동성 등을 제공하는 일종의 대규모 CPS이다. 제조 클라우드 CPS는 많은 수와 다양한 종류의 이기종 서브시스템들로 구성되어 있는데 이 때문에 서브시스템 간 연동, 데이터 교환, 시스템 통합 등에 문제가 발생할 수 있어 대규모의 제조 클라우드 CPS을 구성하는데 어려움을 겪고 있다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 어려움을 극복하기 위하여 제조 클라우드를 체계적으로 분석하고 분석 결과를 바탕으로 제조 클라우드 CPS를 효과적으로 지원할 수 있는 플랫폼 참조 모델을 제안한다. CPS 분석 방법론인 CPS 프레임워크를 활용하여 제조 클라우드 CPS의 기능적, 인간적, 신뢰성, 시간적, 데이터 및 구성의 측면에서 사용자 요구사항을 도출하고 이들을 분석하여 확장성, 구성성, 상호 작용성, 신뢰성, 시간성, 상호 운용성, 지능성의 영역에서 시스템 요구사항을 정의한다. 정의된 제조 클라우드 CPS 시스템 요구사항을 바탕으로 플랫폼을 구성하기 위하여 IoT 플랫폼 표준인 oneM2M의 요구사항에 매핑하고 oneM2M 구현물인 Mobius를 통하여 요구사항 지원성 검증 실험을 수행하였다. 수행 결과를 분석하여 현재 사물인터넷 플랫폼의 제조 클라우드 CPS 지원성을 확인하고 이를 확장하여 대규모 제조 클라우드 생산을 지원하는 플랫폼 참조 모델을 제안한다.
