Das vorliegende Taschenbuch fasst die bekannten Berechnungsformeln und Erkenntnisse aus der betrieblichen Praxis und aus wissenschaftlichen Untersuchungen im Bereich des Weberei-Vorwerks und der Weberei zusammen. Die bei der Gewebeherstellung notwendigen Entscheidungsprozesse sollen damit erleichtert werden.
Mit dieser Formelsammlung lassen sich jedoch nicht nur die optimalen Fertigungsvorschriften für Gewebe praxisgerecht erstellen, sondern auch die wichtigsten technischen und physikalischen Grundlagen des Fabrikbetriebs werden in der gebotenen Kürze dargestellt.
Purpose: Mobile robots are used in many areas of industry and commerce. This paper describes research on and development of a mobile platform, which is based on the concept of a ball-on-ball balancer, with two electrical drives at an angle of 90° providing a velocity vector in any direction in the horizontal plane. The purpose is to implement an originally novel principle for an omnidirectional mobile platform of very high agility, which is able at any given situation to move immediately in any direction without additional steering movements or steering mechanism.
Methodology: In advance of the design and implementation of the control strategy for the mobile device, the method of theoretical modelling of the vehicle’s properties and behaviour was applied. The developed theoretical and numerical dynamic models take into account all the control parameters which allow for the determination of the critical value of angular acceleration of the driving wheel. This is needed to prevent any slippage of the ball as this would result in the loss of accuracy of positioning. The equations of motion were implemented in the platform controller and tested. The mobile platform consists of a ball of 0.2 m radius driven in the X-Y plane by two wheels that are attached to servo motors. The mobile platform is controlled by a CAN PLC controller interfacing with the motor drives, accelerometers and a laser sensor for feedback. Wireless communication provides the interface with the station controller via Wi-Fi and XBee Series 2 modules.
Findings: The experimentally obtained results show that the mobile platform can be reliably controlled using the ball-onball balancer principle with the developed control algorithm. Additional application of a sensor for guiding the mobile platform along obstacles or guiding lines improves the accuracy of the movement.
Originality: The originality of the control strategy for a mobile platform with an omnidirectional drive, proposed at the paper, is the avoiding slippage by limiting the platform acceleration to below the critical value by means of monitoring and limiting the lead values of the feedback control loop of the driving wheels.
Practical value: Development of control strategy for the mobile robot, which is based on the concept of a ball-on-ball balancer with two electrical drives at an angle of 90° providing a velocity vector in any direction in the horizontal plane.
Die Entwicklung neuer Produkte findet nicht nur abteilungs-, sondern zunehmend organisationsübergreifend statt. Kooperationen in der Produktentstehung gewinnen folglich vermehrt an Bedeutung, was neue Anforderungen an den Produktentstehungsprozess (PEP) und die Zusammenarbeit in diesem schafft. Mit diesen Herausforderungen sieht sich auch der Forschungscampus ARENA2036 konfrontiert. Die vorliegende Arbeit beschäftigt sich mit der Entwicklung eines für die interdisziplinäre, interorganisationale Zusammenarbeit geeigneten PEP-Modells. Dieses wird auf Basis von theoretischen Grundlagen, Experteninterviews und unter Berücksichtigung der praktischen Gegebenheiten in ARENA2036 modelliert. Der finale PEP untergliedert sich in einen übergeordneten Prozess, in den die individuellen PEPs der ARENA2036-Partner untergeordnet sind. Durch diese Struktur können die heterogenen PEPs der Partner vereint und die notwendige forscherische Freiheit und Flexibilität gewährleistet werden. Weiterhin wird der PEP durch geeignete Konzepte und Methoden der kooperativen Zusammenarbeit flankiert.
Die Automobilindustrie sieht sich seit Jahren rasant verändernden Markt-, Umwelt- und Wettbewerbsbedingungen ausgesetzt. Der Entwicklungsprozess in der Automobilindustrie wird dadurch zunehmend komplexer. Die Einbeziehung neuer Partner aus anderen Industriebereichen und der Wissenschaft stellt hierbei ein großes Innovationspotential dar, insbesondere Systeminnovationen können hierdurch gefördert werden. Die Herausforderungen solch interdisziplinärer, interorganisationaler Entwicklungsprojekte können nur im geeigneten Umfeld gemeistert werden. In der Literatur als auch in der Industrie lassen sich zahlreiche Kooperationsmodelle identifizieren. Die Eignung dieser Modelle für die interdisziplinäre, interorganisationale Entwicklung in der Automobilindustrie wird anhand geeigneter Kriterien bewertet. Abschließend werden die Ergebnisse der Analyse empirisch überprüft und für den praktischen Fall der ARENA2036 angewendet.
Mastering of complex systems and interfaces, idea and innovation management as well as virtually integrated product and process planning are essential competences to be developed and fostered to cope with the changing role of the workforce in a future industry 4.0 work system. Learning factories, like the Logistics Learning Factory at Reutlingen University, which are equipped with state-of-the-art infrastructure, offer a high potential to decidedly address these competences.
In academia and industry learning factories are established as close-to-reality learning environments for education and training in the manufacturing domain. Although the approach and concept of existing learning factories is often similar, orientation and design of individual facilities are diverse. So far, there is no structured framework to describe learning factory approaches. In the paper a multidimensional description model is presented in form of a morphology which can be used as a starting point for the structuring and classification of existing learning factory application scenarios as well as a support for the development and improvement of learning factory approaches.
Shorter product life cycles and emerging technologies in the field of industrial equipment are changing the prerequisites and circumstances under which the design of assembly and logistics systems take place. Planners have to adapt the production in accordance with the underlying product at a higher pace, oversee a more complex system and - most importantly - find the ideal solution for functional as well as social interaction between humans and machines in a cyber-physical system. Such collaborative work systems consider the individual capabilities and potentials of humans and machines to combine them in a manner that assists the operator during his daily work routine towards more productive, less burdening work. To be able to design work systems which act on that maxim, specific competences such as the ability of integrated process and product planning as well as systems and interface competence are required. The ESB Logistics Learning Factory trains students as well as professionals to gain such qualification by providing a close-to-reality learning environment based on a didactical concept which covers all relevant methods for ergonomic work system design and a state-of-the-art infrastructure composed of a manual assembly system, service robots, visual assistance systems, sensor-based work load monitoring and logistical resources. Group-based, activity oriented scenarios enable the participants to put the learnings into practice within their professional environments. By this, learning factories have an indirect impact on the transfer of proven best practices to the industry and thereby on the diffusion of the idea of human-centric working environment.
In the last decade, numerous learning factories for education, training, and research have been built up in industry and academia. In recent years learning factory initiatives were elevated from a local to a European and then to a worldwide level. In 2014 the CIRP Collaborative Working Group (CWG) on Learning Factories enables a lively exchange on the topic "Learning Factories for future oriented research and education in manufacturing". In this paper results of discussions inside the CWG are presented. First, what is meant by the term Learning Factory is outlined. Second, based on the definition a description model (morphology) for learning factories is presented. The morphology covers the most relevant characteristics and features of learning factories in seven dimensions. Third, following the morphology the actual variance of learning factory manifestations is shown in six learning factory application scenarios from industrial training over education to research. Finally, future prospects of the learning factory concept are presented.
Das dynamische Verhalten von Werkzeugmaschinen ist für die Stabilität während der Bearbeitung sowie die Qualität der erzeugten Werkstücke von besonderer Bedeutung. Ein Einflussfaktor darauf ist die Dämpfung. Im Bereich der Maschinengestelle kommen seit langer Zeit unterschiedliche Materialien zum Einsatz. In diesem Fachbeitrag werden die Dämpfungskennwerte unterschiedlicher Gestellwerkstoffe an geometrisch gleichen Proben vergleichend gegenübergestellt. Als weitere Kenngröße wurde die Lage der (1. Biege-) Eigenfrequenz als Maß für die massebezogene dynamische Steifigkeit verwendet. Die Effekte beim Übergang von einfachen Bauteilen zu komplexen Strukturen runden den Fachartikel ab.
Few unfocused factories outperform competitors, but Focus is elusive because the environment is constantly evolving and this requires changes to a factory’s key tasks. So how can focus be achieved and sustained? We present insights derived from an historical analysis of the German Hewlett-Packard server plant which went through a series of Focus changes over the years. Using this example, we provide clues for the right timing of Focus changes and discuss critical structural and infrastructural changes required during the Focus transitions, as well as cross-functional coordination and leadership challenges. Our assertion is that production operations constitute a system that can adapt to disruptive Change by using the levers of manufacturing policies to stay focused on a limited but absolutely essential task which creates a strategic advantage.
