The first part of this volume provides the user with assistance in the selection and design of important machine and frame components. It also provides help with machine design, calculation and optimization of these components in terms of their static, dynamic and thermoelastic behavior. This includes machine installation, hydraulic systems, transmissions, as well as industrial design and guidelines for machine design. The second part of this volume deals with the metrological investigation and assessment of the entire machine tool or its components with respect to the properties discussed in the first part of this volume. Following an overview of the basic principles of measurement and measuring devices, the procedure for measuring them is described. Acceptance of the machine using test workpieces and the interaction between the machine and the machining process are discussed in detail. The German Machine Tools and Manufacturing Systems Compendium has been completely revised. The previous five-volume series has been condensed into three volumes in the new ninth edition with color technical illustrations throughout. This first English edition is a translation of the German ninth edition.

Industrial production in high-wage countries like Germany is still at risk. Yet, there are many counter-examples in which producing companies dominate their competitors by not only compensating for their specific disadvantages in terms of factor costs (e.g. wages, energy, duties and taxes) but rather by minimising waste using synchronising integrativity as well as by obtaining superior adaptivity on alternating conditions. In order to respond to the issue of economic sustainability of industrial production in high-wage countries, the leading production engineering and material research scientists of RWTH Aachen University together with renowned companies have established the Cluster of Excellence “Integrative Production Technology for High-Wage Countries”. This compendium comprises the cluster’s scientific results as well as a selection of business and technology cases, in which these results have been successfully implemented into industrial practice in close cooperation with more than 30 companies of the industrial production sector.

Integrative Production Technology for High-Wage Countries

Denis Özdemir

This contributed volume contains the research results of the Cluster of Excellence “Integrative Production Technology for High-Wage Countries”, funded by the German Research Society (DFG). The approach to the topic is genuinely interdisciplinary, covering insights from fields such as engineering, material sciences, economics and social sciences. The book contains coherent deterministic models for integrative product creation chains as well as harmonized cybernetic models of production systems. The content is structured into five sections: Integrative Production Technology, Individualized Production, Virtual Production Systems, Integrated Technologies, Self-Optimizing Production Systems and Collaboration Productivity.The target audience primarily comprises research experts and practitioners in the field of production engineering, but the book may also be beneficial for graduate students.

Die Biologische Transformation der Wertschöpfung wird den Produktionsstandort Deutschland massiv verändern, ein Sachverhalt, der im Zuge der BIOTRAIN-Voruntersuchung erstmal umfangreich analysiert wurde. Im Ergebnis zeichnet die Voruntersuchung ein ganzheitliches Bild des Status-Quo Deutschlands, der zu erwartenden Umwälzungen, der Basistechnologien sowie der Handlungsfelder dieser Transformation.

Eine neue Perspektive für nachhaltige industrielle Wertschöpfung.

Im ersten Teil dieses zweiten Bandes werden dem Anwender Hilfen bei der Auswahl und Auslegung wichtiger Maschinenkomponenten und Gestellbauteile sowie deren Konstruktion, Berechnung und Optimierung hinsichtlich ihres statischen, dynamischen und thermischen Verhaltens gegeben. Hierbei werden auch Maschinenaufstellung, hydraulische Systeme, Getriebe sowie Industriedesign und Richtlinien zur Maschinengestaltung behandelt. Der zweite Teil widmet sich der messtechnischen Untersuchung und Beurteilung der gesamten Werkzeugmaschine bzw. deren Komponenten hinsichtlich der im ersten Teil dieses Bandes behandelten Eigenschaften. Nach einem Überblick über die messtechnischen Grundlagen und Messgeräte wird die Vorgehensweise zu deren messtechnischer Erfassung beschrieben. Auf die Maschinenabnahme durch Prüfwerkstücke sowie die Wechselwirkung zwischen Maschine und Bearbeitungsprozess wird detailliert eingegangen. Das Kompendium „Werkzeugmaschinen Fertigungssysteme" wurde vollständig überarbeitet. Die bisher fünfbändige Reihe wird in der neuen 9. Auflage zu drei Bänden mit durchgängigen Farbabbildungen zusammengefasst.

This book develops the core system science needed to enable the development of a complex industrial internet of things/manufacturing cyber-physical systems (IIoT/M-CPS). Gathering contributions from leading experts in the field with years of experience in advancing manufacturing, it fosters a research community committed to advancing research and education in IIoT/M-CPS and to translating applicable science and technology into engineering practice. Presenting the current state of IIoT and the concept of cybermanufacturing, this book is at the nexus of research advances from the engineering and computer and information science domains. Readers will acquire the core system science needed to transform to cybermanufacturing that spans the full spectrum from ideation to physical realization.

Industrial Internet of Things

This edited volume contains the selected papers presented at the scientific board meeting of the German Cluster of Excellence on “Integrative Production Technology for High-Wage Countries”, held in November 2014. The topical structure of the book is clustered in six sessions: Integrative Production Technology, Individualised Production, Virtual Production Systems, Integrated Technologies, Self-Optimising Production Systems and Human Factors in Production Technology. The Aachen perspective on a holistic theory of production is complemented by conference papers from external leading researchers in the fields of production, materials science and bordering disciplines. The target audience primarily comprises research experts and practitioners in the field but the book may also be beneficial for graduate students.
