a unified manufacturing Resource Model for representing cnc machining systems
Robotics and Computer-integrated Manufacturing, 2009Co-Authors: Parag Vichare, Aydin Nassehi, Sanjeev Kumar, Stephen T. NewmanAbstract:Standard information representation in the manufacturing business has always focused on products with information relating to their design, geometry and required processes. However there is no standardized information Model available to represent the manufacturing equipment used to produce such products. This equipment contributes as a significant investment in setting up a CNC manufacturing facility and is considered as a major asset of the business. Thus the authors see a need for an effective Model to represent such equipment particularly the most expensive assets namely CNC machining systems. Such a Model could represent the machine Resource and also its additional auxiliary devices such as workpiece and cutting tool changing mechanisms, bar feeders, pallet/gantry systems and robotic arms. These devices can function with a CNC only when the controller's Resource data Model can represent their functionality. Currently every machine tool and auxiliary device manufacturer promotes their own Resource data Models; resulting in a plethora of representation methods which are bespoke and incomplete in terms of representing the entire system's Resources. This paper proposes a Unified Manufacturing Resource Model termed UMRM. UMRM not only has the novel capability to provide the information to define the various elements of the CNC machining system, but also has the added capability to provide support for automation of process planning decision making.

Value of Information Introduced by a Resource Model Updating Framework
Mathematical Geosciences, 2018Co-Authors: Cansın Yüksel, Jürgen Benndorf, Corinna Minnecker, Masoud Soleymani Shishvan, M.w.n. BuxtonAbstract:A primary concern of the mining industry is to meet production targets, which are required and defined by customers. Deviations from these targets, in terms of quality and quantity, highly affect the economical aspect. Recently, an efficient Resource Model updating framework concept has been proposed aiming for the improvement of raw material quality control and process efficiency in any type of mining operation. The concept integrates online sensor measurements, obtained during production, into the Resource Model. In this way, due to the spatial variability, quality attributes of the blocks that will be produced in the next days or weeks are being updated based on real-time measurements. The concept has been applied in a lignite field with the aim of identifying local impurities in a lignite seam and to improve the prediction of coal quality attributes in neighbouring blocks. This paper investigates the added value of using the Resource Model updating framework by using the value of information analysis. The expected benefit of additional information (integration of the online sensor measurements into the Resource Model) is compared to a case where there is no additional information integrated into the process. These benefits are evaluated based on the economic impact determined by applying the Resource Model updating framework in mine planning.

Real-time Resource Model updating for improved coal quality control using online data
International Journal of Coal Geology, 2016Co-Authors: Cem Yuksel, T. Thielemann, T. Wambeke, Jürgen BenndorfAbstract:In recent years a real-time Resource Model updating concept has proven to increase the material quality control and process efficiency in geostatistics. The real-time Resource Model updating concept integrates online-sensor data, measured from the production line, into the Resource Model. This integration quickly improves the accuracy of the Resource Model. The aim of this contribution is to adapt this concept into coal production and to apply the developed framework on an industrial case. The result of this study will provide an additional improvement to coal quality management, by mainly focusing on the ash content in the deposit. This includes high ash values in coal seams, which are caused by sand intrusions and are greatly affecting the operational process. A tailored Ensemble Kalman Filter approach, specifically applicable in coal production, is presented after a detailed literature review. For validation, a 2D case study is performed in a fully controllable environment. Further, the approach is benchmarked against an alternative proven approach. To demonstrate the value added a full scale industrial application is performed focusing on improving the lignite quality control in the production process. The results of integrating online measurement data into the Resource Model indicate a significant improvement (in the order of 70%) in coal quality production.
