Modular Intelligent Control System in the Pre-Assembly Stage

Abstract

This paper presents a novel approach to developing fully automated intelligent control systems for use within production-based organizations, with a specific focus on advancing research into intelligent production systems. This analysis underscores a prevailing deficiency in control operations preceding assembly, where single-purpose control machines are commonly utilized, thus presenting inherent limitations. Conversely, while accurate multipurpose measurement centers exist, they often fail to deliver comprehensive quality control for manufactured parts due to cost and time constraints associated with the measuring process. The primary aim in this study was to develop an intelligent modular control system capable of overseeing the production of diverse components effectively. The modular intelligent control system is designed to meticulously monitor the quality of each module during the pre-assembly phase. By integrating sophisticated sensors, diagnostic tools, and intelligent control mechanisms, this system ensures precise control over module production processes. It facilitates the monitoring of multiple parameters and critical quality features, while integrated sensors and diagnostic methods promptly identify discrepancies and inaccuracies, enabling the swift diagnosis of issues within specific modules. The system’s intelligent control algorithms optimize production processes and ensure synchronization among individual modules, thereby ensuring consistent quality and performance. Notably, the implementation of this solution reduces inspection time by an average of 40 to 60% compared to manual inspection methods. Moreover, the system enables the comprehensive archiving of measurement data, eliminating the substantial error rates introduced by human involvement in the inspection process. Furthermore, the system enhances overall project efficiency, predictability, and safety, while allowing for rapid adjustments in order to meet standards and requirements. This innovative approach represents a significant advancement in intelligent control systems for use in production organizations, offering substantial benefits in terms of efficiency, accuracy, and adaptability.
