  1. 1. Methods for improving performance of process planning for CNC machining : an approach based on surveys and analytical models

    Författare :Staffan Anderberg; Högskolan Väst; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Process planning; CNC machining; metal cutting; performance; process capability; environment; energy; Manufacturing and materials engineering; Produktions- och materialteknik;

    Sammanfattning : Process planning as an enabler of competiveness is often overlooked, but being one of the principal function in the product realisation flow it holds a key role by combining both product and production requirements into a production concept with respect to the current manufacturing system. As such the capability of process planning to a large extent dictates production cost, lead times, product quality etc. LÄS MER

  2. 2. Monitoring and Control of Robotized Laser Metal-Wire Deposition

    Författare :Almir Heralic; Alexander Kaplan; Högskolan Väst; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Laser Metal Wire Deposition; Additive Layer Manufacturing; Robotic Weld Equipment; Optical Sensors; Process Control; Process Development; Process Stability; Iterative Learning Control; Manufacturing and materials engineering; Produktions- och materialteknik;

    Sammanfattning : The thesis gives a number of solutions towards full automation of the promising manufacturing technology Robotized Laser Metal-wire Deposition (RLMwD). RLMwD offers great cost and weight saving potentials in the manufacturing industry. LÄS MER

  3. 3. A Simulation-Based Optimisation Method for PLC Systems

    Författare :Bo Svensson; Bengt Lennartson; Rolf Bernhardt; Högskolan Väst; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Simulation based optimisation; Virtual manufacturing; Industrial control system; PLC; Continuous simulation; Parameter tuning; Optimisation methods; Manufacturing and materials engineering; Produktions- och materialteknik;

    Sammanfattning : Tuning of process parameters such as time constants, cam values, velocities and robot paths, in order to increase capacity utilisation, is today a challenging manual on-line task in many automated manufacturing systems. On-line methods interfere with production and will cause unwanted downtime, which indeed reduces capacity utilisation. LÄS MER

  4. 4. Reliable Virtual Commissioning

    Författare :Henrik Carlsson; Bengt Lennartson; Högskolan Väst; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Virtual commissioning; Simulation based PLC control code verification; Virtual manufacturing; Industrial control system; PLC; Continuous simulation; Manufacturing and materials engineering; Produktions- och materialteknik;

    Sammanfattning : Virtual commissioning is a technique for programming, optimising and verifying industrial automated production, such as robot controllers and programmable logic controllers (PLC), off-line in a simulated environment. Compared with traditional robot off-line programming and simulation, the scope is wider and can include an entire production cell. LÄS MER

  5. 5. Design of Thermal Barrier Coating Systems

    Författare :Nicholas Curry; Per Nylén; Nicolaie Markocsan; Robert Vassen; Högskolan Väst; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Thermal Barrier Coating; Atmopsheric Plasma Spraying; Thermal Conductivity; Thermo-cyclic fatigue; Manufacturing and materials engineering; Produktions- och materialteknik;

    Sammanfattning : Thermal barrier coatings (TBC’s) are used to provide both thermal insulation and oxidation protection to high temperature components within gas turbines. The development of turbines for power generation and aviation has led to designs where the operation conditions exceed the upper limits of most conventional engineering materials. LÄS MER
