Intelligent Manufacturing in the Context of Industry 4.0: A Review

Today, the manufacturing industry is aiming to improve competitiveness through the convergence with cutting-edge ICT technologies in order to secure a new growth engine. Smart Manufacturing, which is the fourth revolution in the manufacturing industry and is also considered as a new paradigm, is the collection of cutting-edge technologies that support effective and accurate engineering decision-making in real time through the introduction of various ICT technologies and the convergence with the existing manufacturing technologies. This paper surveyed and analyzed various articles related to Smart Manufacturing, identified the past and present levels, and predicted the future. For these purposes, 1) the major key technologies related to Smart Manufacturing were identified through the analysis of the policies and technology roadmaps of Germany, the U.S., and Korea that have government-driven leading movements for Smart Manufacturing, 2) the related articles on the overall Smart Manufacturing concept, the key system structure, or each key technology were investigated, and, finally, 3) the Smart Manufacturing-related trends were identified and the future was predicted by conducting various analyses on the application areas and technology development levels that have been addressed in each article.

Currently, the typical challenges that manufacturing enterprises faced are the lack of timely, accurate and consistent information of manufacturing things resources during manufacturing execution. Real-time information visibility and traceability allows decision makers to make better-informed shop-floor decisions. In this article, a real-time information capturing and integration architecture of the internet of manufacturing things IoMT is presented to provide a new paradigm by extending the techniques of IoT to manufacturing field. Under this architecture and its key components, the manufacturing things such as operators, machines, pallets, materials etc. can be embedded with sensors, they can interact with each other. Considering the challenges of processing a huge amount of real-time data into useful information and exchange it among the heterogeneous application systems, a Real-time Manufacturing Information Integration Service RTMIIS has been designed to achieve seamless dual-way connectivity and interoperability among enterprise layer, workshop floor layer and machine layer. Finally, a near-life scenario has been used to illustrate the proof-of-concept application of the proposed IoMT.

Rotating machines have been widely used in industrial engineering. The fault diagnosis of rotating machines plays a vital important role to reduce the catastrophic failures and heavy economic loss. However, the measured vibration signal of rotating machinery often represents non-linear and non-stationary characteristics, resulting in difficulty in the fault feature extraction. As a statistical measure, entropy can quantify the complexity and detect dynamic change through taking into account the non-linear behavior of time series. Therefore, entropy can be served as a promising tool to extract the dynamic characteristics of rotating machines. Recently, many studies have applied entropy in fault diagnosis of rotating machinery. This paper aims to investigate the applications of entropy for the fault characteristics extraction of rotating machines. First, various entropy methods are briefly introduced. Its foundation, application, and some improvements are described and discussed. The review is divided into eight parts: Shannon entropy, Renyi entropy, approximate entropy, sample entropy, fuzzy entropy, permutation entropy, and other entropy methods. In each part, we will review the applications using the original entropy method and the improved entropy methods, respectively. In the end, a summary and some research prospects are given.

The Entropy Algorithm and Its Variants in the Fault Diagnosis of Rotating Machinery: A Review

Fault diagnosis of bearings using classification techniques plays an important role in industrial applications, and, hence, has received increasing attention. Recently, significant efforts have been made to develop various methods for bearing fault classification and the application of Case Western Reserve University (CWRU) data for validation has become a standard reference to test the fault classification algorithms. However, a systematic research for evaluating bearing fault classification performance using the CWRU data is still lacking. This paper aims to provide a comprehensive benchmark analysis of the CWRU data using various entropy and classification methods. The main contribution of this paper is applying entropy-based fault classification methods to establish a benchmark analysis of entire CWRU datasets, aiming to provide a proper assessment of any new classification methods. Recommendations are provided for the selection of the CWRU data to aid in testing new fault classification algorithms, which will enable the researches to develop and evaluate various diagnostic algorithms. In the end, the comparison results and discussion are reported as a useful baseline for future research.

This paper mainly focuses on the integrated importance measure (IIM) of component states based on loss of system performance. To describe the impact of each component state, we first introduce the performance function of the multi-state system. Then, we present the definition of IIM of component states. We demonstrate its corresponding physical meaning, and then analyze the relationships between IIM and Griffith importance, Wu importance, and Natvig importance. Secondly, we present the evaluation method of IIM for multi-state systems. Thirdly, the characteristics of IIM of component states are discussed. Finally, we demonstrate a numerical example, and an application to an offshore oil and gas production system for IIM to verify the proposed method. The results show that 1) the IIM of component states concerns not only the probability distributions and transition intensities of the states of the object component, but also the change in the system performance under the change of the state distribution of the object component; and 2) IIM can be used to identify the key state of a component that affects the system performance most.
