This book investigates design and management of digital manufacturing and assembly of products using Industry 4.0 technologies. It covers machine learning and AI processes, additive manufacturing, virtualization and simulation techniques, and other technologies. Includes case studies of modelling, simulation and optimization.
Manufacturing, like other industries, is rising to the challenges imposed by aggressive consumer demands and the need for cost-effective processing that delivers quality in the fastest possible time. Fierce competition means that keeping abreast of new developments and applications in technology is essential if companies are to meet demands profitably and keep ahead of competitors. This book investigates the design and management of digital manufacturing and assembly systems for an efficient, flexible, and modular production of customized products using the I40 (industry 4.0)-enabling technologies. This book will also provide case studies covering modeling, simulation, and optimization.
eBook includes color figures.
Discusses how the advancement of data communication and storage through the Internet of Things (IoT) opens the possibilities of connecting sensors, robots, and devices
Sheds light on how the human role in industry is decreasing due to the development of connected manufacturing floors, allowing them to take more control over the manufacturing processes, decisions, and even maintenance
Covers the benefits from exploiting digital manufacturing, manufacturing enterprises, and what they expect to achieve
Explains the important roles that modeling, simulation, and optimization play
Investigates the design and management of digital manufacturing and assembly systems for an efficient, flexible, and modular production of customized products exploiting the I40 (industry 4.0)-enabling technologies
