GENERAL ALGORITHM FOR COMPONENT DESIGN-OPTIMIZATION FOR MANUFACTURING EQUIPMENT CONSTRUCTION
Journal Title: Proceedings in Manufacturing Systems - Year 2014, Vol 9, Issue 1
Abstract
The modernization of manufacturing processes involves by all means the development and evolution of the technological processing, assembly and control equipment by developing new solutions in the field of blank and tool orientation and clamping, training, support, guidance, stiffening and transfer devices.Multi-criteria optimization of the technological system is determined by the complexity and dynamic character of its components, laying emphasis on its ability to adapt quickly and efficiently to the variety of the production tasks. In our research we have developed and used mathematical models and optimization algorithms to design new structures and components for device, equipment and machine-tool construction and modernization. The systematic analysis of the optimization problems involved in the technological process and equipment is required by the need to highlight the multitude of factors and their interdependence with a view to establishing rational solutions in the field of manufacturing engineering. The optimization methods presented in this paper, from the optimization of blank surface orientation and clamping, the optimization of orientation and clamping device construction, the optimization of new structure development to the method of automatic generation of the manufacturing equipment structures are important steps in the complex optimization of the technological processes. As a systematic and objective approach of this paper, we have defined a general graph to describe the structures of the manufacturing equipment and an associated mathematical model used to optimize them.
