A Low-Cost Automated Fastener Painting Method Based on Machine Vision (2018)
Conference Proceeding

Fastener painting of aerospace structures, in particular legacy products , relies heavily on the skill or rather craftsmanship of the human operator. This process is time-consuming while automated operations with industrial robots can be a more effic... Read More about A Low-Cost Automated Fastener Painting Method Based on Machine Vision.

Deployment of a distributed multi-agent architecture for transformable assembly (2018)
Conference Proceeding

Industry 4.0 represents a new philosophy in manufacturing systems, based on networked, intelligent, and cooperative resources. This revolution is necessary to make the cost-effective production of batch-size-of-one customised items in high-value manu...

OPTIMISED – Developing a State of the Art System for Production Planning for Industry 4.0 in the Construction Industry -Based Optimisation (2018)
Conference Proceeding

© 2018 The authors and IOS Press. Although it is not uncommon to have a predictive model of a factory, these models are often simplistic in nature. Such models rarely reflect the current operating performance of the system, use simple and separate da...

Composite capabilities for cloud manufacturing (demonstration) (2018)
Conference Proceeding

Measurement assisted assembly for high accuracy aerospace manufacturing (2018)
Conference Proceeding

Measurement Assisted Assembly is a key concept for the modernisation of aerospace assembly processes, i.e. improving their efficiency while reducing the manufacturing costs. This concept suggests a paradigm shift in the assembly of high-complexity pr... Read More about Measurement assisted assembly for high accuracy aerospace manufacturing.

Conceptual framework for ubiquitous cyber-physical assembly systems in airframe assembly (2018)
Conference Proceeding

Current sectoral drivers for the manufacturing of complex products - such as airframe assembly -require new manufacturing system paradigms to meet them. In this paper, we propose a conceptual framework for cyber-physical systems driven by ubiquitous...

Common shared system model for evolvable assembly systems (2018)
Conference Proceeding

A vital aspect of distributed control in an adaptable production system is coherence between each system resource. The Evolvable Assembly Systems project addresses this challenge using a common shared system model. This paper provides an overview of...

Functional modelling in evolvable assembly systems (2018)
Conference Proceeding

The design and reconfiguration of adaptive production systems is a key driver in modern advanced manufacturing. We summarise the use of an ap-proach from the field of functional modelling to capture the function, behaviour, and structure of a system....
