In the era of digital transformation of the manufacturing and process industry, heterogeneity of assets is one of the most challenging issues towards digitally integrating components within the Industrial Internet of Things. In this context every participant relies on its proprietary digitalization approach envisioned by Plattform Industrie 4.0. To consolidate these heterogeneous data exchange interfaces, e.g. communication protocols, data formats etc., an intermediate step of harmonization is required. Our contribution provides an architecture based on the Asset Administration Shell standard to bring heterogeneous Cyber-Physical-Systems together. We illustrate the functionality through an abstract use-case.

Despite the common use of cutting fluids in metal cutting, most simulations of these processes only consider dry conditions. This is largely due to limitations in conventional simulation methods, such as the Finite Element Method (FEM), regarding fast changing computational domains. In this paper, a simulation model of metal cutting with cutting fluid based on the Finite Pointset Method (FPM) is presented. This approach allows to simulate the Fluid-Structure-Interactions (FSI) within the same simulation method. For different orthogonal turning processes, the simulations are compared with experiments for dry and wet conditions. The simulation results illustrate the cooling effect numerically.
Traceability systems and digital assistance solutions are becoming increasingly vital parts of modern manufacturing environments. They help tracking quality-related information throughout the production process and su...

Robot-guided drag finishing is a free abrasive grinding operation that is used for polishing and deburring of workpieces with complex shaped geometries. The workpiece is attached to a robot and moved through a bulk of abrasive particles. The motion of abrasive particles during contact with the workpiece is the basis of the material removal mechanisms. To investigate the motion of abrasive particles during contact, a force measurement system was used to determine contact forces. The experimental setup was replicated in a numerical simulation based on the discrete element method (DEM). Based on the comparison of experimental and simulative results the qualitative validity of the DEM model was concluded. With the presented DEM model, the characteristic particle behavior during contact with the workpiece can be modeled which allows the prediction of resulting processing marks. Consequently, the DEM model can be used to design free abrasive grinding operations without using the time and cost intensive trial and error approach.

The development of sustainable manufacturing processes and the associated reduction of operating materials such as cooling lubricants represent key focuses on recent production technology. Thus, a novel tool system with a closed-loop internal cooling system for turning operations is presented in this study. The system design is based on numerical investigations of the heat flow Q⋅ with consideration of the thermomechanical load of the cutting tool and flow characteristics of the cooling fluid. The process behavior of the proposed system shows a significant dependence of the flow rate V⋅ and tool thickness t T in terms of tool temperature reduction Δθ T .

In the face of challenges such as limited resources and climate change, aerospace companies strive for efficiency and sustainability in their manufacturing processes. By means of Additive Manufacturing (AM), new dimensions in terms of cost-effective and bionic lightweight structures are achievable. Even though AM results in the direct manufacturing of components, a variety of post-processing steps has to be implemented in the manufacturing line. By selecting a suitable automatic identification and data capture (Auto-ID) system, a production control system is capable of responding in real time to unforeseen events, while reducing waste caused, for exemple, through unnecessary processing steps. Thus, this paper focuses on an approach for a production control system for a manufacturing line including metal-based AM process.

In the context of increasing digitalisation of production, more and more data is required, while demands on the handling of production resources e.g. gripper for industrial robots are increasing. Currently, the potential of captured data is not being exploited and hardly any data is used with the help of production resources. In this paper, a decision process for the integration of a temperature sensor in Laser Powder Bed Fusion (LPBF) printed end effectors which considers all steps of the design is presented. The result is a 3D-printed adapted design of an end effector which is optimised regarding the requirement profile.
The quality of production planning and control in production companies largely depends on the accuracy of the database regarding the status quo of the production process, as well as the time required for each producti...

Abrasive waterjet (AWJ) machining has proven to be one of the most flexible non-conventional production techniques for difficult-to-machine materials. However, the prediction of process results is challenging since multiple physical processes occur simultaneously. Until now, the use of alternative abrasive material for special applications has received limited attention. In this work, different solid materials of altered shape and mechanical properties were used to analyze the physical phenomena experimentally. A ceramic and a steel abrasive material of either circular or angular geometry were used. The experiments were conducted by AWJ controlled-depth machining on 42CrMo4 steel in various structural modifications regarding the interference of particle interactions. Furthermore the study aims to gain a fundamental understanding of the AWJ erosion process of different abrasive grit for a better prediction and optimization of AWJ machining, in particular for future applications.
