The development of both control systems for machine fleets and computer-controlled production systems have provided companies with a wide spectrum of tools for collecting data about the operation of their machinery stocks. A vast number of companies only store historic data; however, they do not use these data to extract information with respect to improving the efficiency of their technical infrastructure...
The wearing degradation of the structure is accompanied by the increase of non-linear disturbances of the observed dynamic processes. The first of the mentioned effect can become the basis of the technical diagnostics as well as of the prognosis of the machine state change during its maintenance, if only it is possible to describe and measure such effect. In the further part of this study, it is shown...
The paper presents a mobile system dedicated to an industrial manipulator control. For this purpose, an interface was designed to be used for intuitive interaction with a robot, which consists of a measuring scanner for the orientation of the human upper limb, and a glove to measure the deflection of fingers. Basic gestures used for moving the manipulator have been proposed. The paper was based on...
Marking products manufactured from steel and non-ferrous metals is a very important part of the process. Generally, they are used in the production of parts responsible for the health and safety of people in the airline, automotive, and machine industries. The tessellated code is usually applied on the surfaces by laser techniques in the initial phase of the process. A shaping method of the surface...
The article focuses on the analysis of acoustic emission signals generated under dry sliding friction conditions. Two tests were conducted using a TRB3 tribometer with the disc made of 100Cr6 steel with a DLC coating, and pin made of corundum (Al2O3) and steel 100Cr6, respectively. Two tests with the disc without DLC coating were also carried out. The audio data written in the 16-bit linear pulse-code...
One of the directions of modern development in the field of material research is the inclusion of features, enabling them to detect external stimuli and change their own properties in order to adapt to changes in the environment. Such materials evoke a new design philosophy that combines the actions of sensors, executive mechanisms, and control functions in one structure, which are capable of changing...
Businesses today are incredibly data rich, and dealing with large amount of data, so making some inferences and conclusions, depending on the organisation size and complexity of its processes, it has been a challenge, especially that the next disruptive phase in manufacturing, i.e. Industry 4.0 (I4.0) is already underway. Business Intelligence (BI) and Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) have become...
