Title: Chemical management in automotive and mass industry

Abstract

Cutting fluids play a significant role in machining operations and impact shop productivity, tool life and quality of work. They are also a key factor in machine shop productivity and production of quality machined parts.  Today’s cutting fluids are special blends of chemical additives, lubricants and water formulated to meet the performance demands of the metalworking industry. The paper presents the main specifications for a monitoring of processing fluids for bearings and automotive industries. The implementation of fluid outsourcing in these industries. There is presented method of monitoring and diagnostic of processing fluids in real conditions.

Keywords:  fluid contamination, metalworking cutting fluids

Title: Multiaxis Machining of Complex Parts in Multiproduct Manufacturing

Abstract:

To provide the machining accuracy of parts on metal-cutting machine-tools fixtures appointed for accurately locating and reliable workpiece clamping are used. The expansion of technological capabilities of modern CNC machining centers necessitates the improvement of design procedures in production planning is needed. The variety of parts and the tendency to increase their complexity, as well as the desire to reduce the cost of time, makes it necessary to find new approaches to the design of tooling. The report delivers the designs of flexible fixtures, which provides sufficient tool availability and allows multiaxis machining of complex parts at one setup. The ways of intensification and manufacturing process of complex parts machining with a significant reduction of auxiliary and preparatory time are offered. Studies performed by numerical simulation methods and experimental investigations confirmed that the proposed approach meets all the accuracy parameters. The results of static structural, modal, and harmonic analyses confirmed that the proposed fixtures had sufficient strength and dynamic stiffness, which allows it to be used with intensive cutting modes that are characteristic of modern machines and cutting tools. The oscillation amplitudes in places of the work surfaces in the proposed device do not exceed the tolerances for the manufacturing of these surfaces.

Title: Identification of the relevant parameters for modeling the communication ecosystem elements
in Industry 4.0

Abstract :

The development of information and communication technologies leads to more efficient logistics and production processes through the implementation of the Industry 4.0 concept. For this purpose, it is important to establish all elements of the communication  ecosystem with the aim of delivering accurate and real-time information to end users. Today’s scientific research literature does not provide enough insight into the field of modeling unique integrated Industry 4.0 ecosystem with the aim of delivering the required services. The aim of this research is to identify the relevant parameters required for modeling ecosystem elements within the Industry 4.0 concept. The identification of relevant parameters provides a starting point in the field of modeling ecosystem elements for the purpose of creating unique integrated system. In the process of designing, it is important to create new business models in telecom operators area for the purpose of more efficient business within the concept of Industry 4.0. The paper also shows the impact of business transition from traditional to digital business by comparing current business models.

Keywords: Modelling, Environment, System, Digital Company, Industry 4.0
