This paper presents a methodology for automatic feature extraction used in a vision system of FMC (flexible Manufacturing Cell). To implement a robot vision system, it is important to make a feature database for object recognition, location, and orientation. For industrial applications, it is necessary to extract feature information from CAD database since the detail information about an object is described in CAD data. Generally, CAD description is three dimensional information but single image data from camera is two dimensional information. Because of this dimensiional difference, many problems arise. Our primary concern in this study is to convert three dimensional data into two dimensional data and to extract some features from them and store them into the feature database. Secondary concern is to construct feature selecting system that can be used for part recognition in a given set of objects.

In this study, we propose a shared storage system which is more efficient policy than MIS(Mixed Intermediate Storage) policy for relatively rare storage system and can be called CIS(Common Intermediate Storage) policy. Using this strategy, we develop a new completion time algorithm and apply it to two kinds of optimal or near optimal scheduling method; combinatorial search and simulated annealing method. We also extend this strategy to other storage policy, for example MIS policy, with PLC(Programmable Logic Controller) logic and on/off action of electronic valves. It thus can be accepted as a basic form of FMS(Flexible Manufacturing System) for operating various storage policies. Finally we suggest the interlocking block to compansate for the shortcoming of CIS policy, i.e, complication of operation and safety, resulting in a basic batch process automation mode.

This paper presents a new approach to the design of neural control system using digital signal processors in order to improve the precision and robustness. Robotic manipulators have become increasingly important n the field of flexible automation. High speed and high-precision trajectory tracking are indispensable capabilities for their versatile application. The need to meet demanding control requirement in increasingly complex dynamical control systems under significant uncertainties, leads toward design of intelligent manipulation robots. The TMS320C31 is used in implementing real time neural control to provide an enhanced motion control for robotic manipulators. In this control scheme, the networks introduced are neural nets with dynamic neurons, whose dynamics are distributed over all the network nodes. The nets are trained by the distributed dynamic back propagation algorithm. The proposed neural network control scheme is simple in structure, fast in computation, and suitable for implementation of real-time control. Performance of the neural controller is illustrated by simulation and experimental results for a SCARA robot.

Roll to roll (R2R) system, known as 'web processing', is the process of producing these electronic devices on a roll of flexible plastic. With the need of improved performance and productivity in R2R industry, effective control and on-line supervision for web quality is essential. In this report, we present a system for on-line measurement of wrinkles, one of defects incurring due to compressive stresses developed in the web. This system is able to capture an image generated when a well defined line shape laser beam passes through a transparent web. The system calculates 3D shape information, including the height of the wrinkle on the web, and displays the images for the shape information of the web in real time. By using area scan camera and machine vision laser, this system takes more advantages of setting up as a simple and low cost system compared to the line scan camera systems that widely used in web manufacturing. Specific calibration method and analysis on the achievable accuracy will be discussed.

This paper aims to develope an algorithm to minimize the total production time, sum of group formation times and processing times, under the balanced workload among the machines by grouping parts with machine loading in FMS. The algorithm of this study is composed of four step procedures ; (1) Parts grouping by Group Technology(GT) (2) Minimizing total processing time in loading problem (3) Machine workload balancing, including above(2) (4) Group formation time, including above(3) For parts grouping, Rank Order Clustering(ROC) algorithm developed by King(1980) is used and this algorithm is programmed by using the MACRO functions of QUATTRO Pro, one of the spreadsheet packages. The structure for loading model is solved by using the Hyper-LINDO. As a case study, numerical examples are demonstrated to show the effectiveness of the proposed machine loading procedure.

The objective of this paper is to present a methodology for design of the FMS by using a new modeling tool which is called SE&TPN(Safe Extended & Timed Petri Net). A FMS, which consists of various machine groups, may produce machine parts in different physical dimensions and lot size. The approach involves the SE&TPN modeling by Petri-nets. The proposed algorithm can handle determining of firing count vector by incidence matrix and adjustment of conflict using the marking of SE&TPN. The SE&TPN is defined as nets that can have at most one token in one place and can have elements such as permissive arcs and inhibitor arcs in addition to elements. The SE&TPN with permissive arcs and inhibitor arcs are intuitively direct approach to increase the modeling power of the SE&TPN. Finally, this paper is to develop a modulation to optimize the system problems of FMS using SE&TPN which describes exactly features of Petri Nets.

The efficient use of capital intensive FMS requires determination of effective dispatching priority with which the parts of the selected part types are to be inputed into the system. This paper presents a simulation-optimization approach to find an appropriate dispatching priority. The study is based on a detailed simulator for a module-type commercial FMS, Specifically, after presenting the basic configuration and fundamental control logic of the system together with its main characteristics as a special type of a job shop, an algorithm is presented which combines simulated annealing and simulation to explore a dispatching priority of operations that minimizes the total tardiness, Computational performance of the algorithm shows that good solutions can be obtained within a reasonable amount of computations. The paper also compares the performance of the "optimal" or near optimal dispatching priority generated by the proposed algorithm with those generated by standard dispatching rules such as SPT, EDD and SLACK.

This study introduces the development of robot fish ROFI 1.1. Today, robot fish is one of strong candidates for next-generation UUV. The present paper describes the design, manufacturing, and operation tests of the robot fish developed at Seoul National University. The very first robot fish in Korea, ROFI 1.1 is operated by a wireless remote controller. Its overall length is 680mm, and weight is 8.8kg. The fore body contains main mechanical and electrical systems and is covered by a FRP skin. The aft body has a mechanical bone system that mimics fish bones, and its skin is made of flexible silicon sponge to allow elastic motion for propulsion. It is found that this mechanical system creates effective and realistic fish-like swimming mode. It is observed that the normal and maximum advancing speeds of ROFI 1.1 are about 1 and 2 m/sec, and the turning radius is between $0.7{\sim}2.5m$, depending on the turning mechanism.

FMS를 비롯한 대부분의 제조시스템의 운용을 위해서는 크게 전략적 의사결저오가 전술적 읫사결저이 필요하며, 이 중 전술적 의사결증은 부품 선택, 생산율 결정, 부하할당, 부품 투입, 일정계획 문제등과 관련되어 있다. 본 연구에서는 부품투입시점과 부품투입순서에 의해 결정된 부품투입 정책이 시스템 성능에 미치는 영향을 알아보기 위해서, 서울대학교부설 자동화시스템공동연구소(ASRI)내의 FMS/CIM Center를 대상으로 시뮬레이션을 수행하였다. ASRI-FMS /CIM Center 는 기계가공과 조립이 동시에 이루어지는 FMAS(Flexible Mauufacturing & Assembly System) 형태의 모형공장이며, 현재 세 종류의 모터 등을 생산할 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 고려한 부품투입시점 전략으로는 고정 WIP(Work-in-process)유지전략 , 병목기계 전략, 일정비율 투입전략 등이며, 부품 투입순서 전략으로는 크게 주기적 투입전략과 비주기적 투입전략을 고려하였다. 또한 이러한 부품 투입정책들이 시스템 내에서 적용할 수 있는 여러 가지 우선순위규칙 등과 함께 사용될 때, 나타나는 상호관계를 파악하기 위한 연구가 수행되었다. 아울러 병목기계 추가도입, 물류운반시간의 감소 등과 같이 가능한 범위에서 현재의 시스템 조건이 바뀐 상황에 대해서도 시뮬레이션을 수행함으로써, 추후 변경된 시스템에서도 본 연구의 결과가 적응될 수 있도록 하였다.

This paper presents a job-shop type flexible manufacturing system(FMS) scheduling problem and examines the effects of scheduling rules on the performance of FMS. Several machine and AGV scheduling rules are tested against the mean flow-time criterion. In this paper, I compare the rules under various experimental conditions by using an FMS simulation model. One of the objectives of this study is to discuss how the simulation-based scheduling problem can be operated. The other is to measure sensitivity of the rules to changes at inter arrival time, queue capacity, breakdown rates for machines and AGV, and AGV speed. Therefore, the results of simulation experiments were considered on FMS design and operating stages. A comprehensive bibliograph? is also presented in the paper.
