Reconfiguration, expansion, or new establishment of FMS requires the availability of a shop floor control (SFC) system relevant to the FMS since it is closely related with the hardware component of FMS. Due to the expensive cost of its development, significant research efforts have been made to develop an SFC system that is reusable. This paper presents Abstract Machine Tool (AMT) approach applied to develop an SFC sytem that is reusable without additional programming. The AMT model enables us to design the SFC system independently of the hardware-dependent attributes of euqipment; an AMT models a workstation by abstraction and presents an equipment-independent interface to machining cell controller. Specifically, we describe how we formalize the interfaces among equipment in order to build an AMT and how we design the machining cell control software based on AMT models. We also present MACHINIST the machining cell control system for IAE-FMS plant as an implementation example.

This paper describes a wireless point of production(POP) system using Bluetooth that is used as a tool of a new wireless interface. We developed the wireless POP system that is composed of POP terminal and control software. The POP terminal wirelessly collects the shop floor information in real-time. And the control software helps to make appropriate decisions based on the collected information by the POP terminal. The software is developed by using Visual C＋＋ programming language. A case study is implemented to show the performance of the developed system.

The body of an excavator, one sort of the construction equipment, consists of mainframe part, track frame part, boom part and arm part. The all parts are manufactured in the body welding operation. The scheduling in the body welding operation of a construction equipment manufacturing is to take all the various constraints into consideration. The offset time, due date, daily capacity of operations, daily jig's capacity, precedence relation, outsourcing, alternative resource and all of the shop floor environment should be considered. An APS(Advanced Planning & Scheduling) system is a proper and efficient system in such circumstance. In this paper, we present an APS system, the optimal scheduling system for the construction equipment manufacturing specifically for the body welding operation, using ILOG Solver/Scheduler. ILOG Solver/Scheduler is a general purposed commercial software which supports to find a feasible or optimal solution using object oriented technique and constraints satisfaction programming, given constraints and objectives.

This thesis reports the development of a Computer-Aided Process Planning system for rotational parts. The developed system ultimately generates process plans for rotational parts through a knowledge-base. The knowledge-base and decision-making algorithms are represented by Pascal computer programming language. We have developed a process planning system which adjusts the sequence of processes by itself to ensure the quality of the parts. This system generates more detailed job sequence and descriptions than other well-known process planning systems. We present realistic and efficient process plans through the integration of process planning and scheduling. This system optimizes flow time of parts by decreasing the number of machine set-ups.

가공 시스템의 지능화 및 자율화 추세가 확대되면서, CNC 공작기계의 자동화된 오퍼레이션을 위한 머신 텐딩 시스템 도입이 산업 현장에서 활발히 진행되고 있다. 머신 텐딩 시스템을 구축함에 있어 CNC 공작기계와 로봇 간 인터페이스 구성 및 구성한 인터페이스에 대한 작업 설계 변경은 가장 중요한 프로세스이다. 하지만 이러한 중요도에도 불구하고 머신 텐딩 시스템은 많은 설정 문제가 있다. 새로운 CNC 공작기계나 로봇을 도입할 때마다 인터페이스에 맞추어 컨트롤러를 다시 제작하거나 재구성해야 하는 어려움이 있고, 추가적으로 머신 텐딩 시스템의 복잡한 구조로 인해 현장 작업자가 해당 시스템을 변경하는 부분에도 어려움이 있다. 이에 본 연구에서는 이기종의 CNC 머신과 산업용 로봇 간 인터페이스를 하나의 통합 시스템으로 구성하였다. 또한 손쉽게 작업 설계 변경을 하기 위해 디지털 트윈을 구현하여 현장 작업자는 간단하게 변경을 가능하게 하였다. 이 시스템을 구현하기 위하여 이기종 CNC 공작기계에 대한 표준화된 인터페이스를 제공하는 지능형 HMI 플랫폼과 다양한 로봇을 제어할 수 있는 응용 소프트웨어 개발 플랫폼인 ROS 플랫폼의 통합 개발 환경을 구축하였다. 또한 손쉬운 작업환경을 위해 게임 엔진인 Unity3D를 사용하여 시스템 모델링 후 웹 브라우저 환경에서 머신 텐딩 원격 제어 및 실시간 모니터링 프로그램을 개발하였다.
