A hot term about tomorrow’s production is smart manufacturing, which is one of the cores to realize the next industrial revolution, for example, Society 5.0 by Japanese government.
Many Japanese factories are in the process of adopting smart factories based on their current production system. Seru Production Systems (SPS, セル生産システム) are one of the most applied systems in Japan’s industries. This research proposal studies how to realize a smart factory with seru production systems.
This is a three-year research project. We will investigate a lot of research question, especially put today's tools such as robots and IoT into seru production systems and evaluate its performances. We organize a smart factory with a SPS to quickly meet changing demands. A customer demand is described by two parameters: product type, volume of the type. The objective is to minimize the production time of customer demands to realize responding in real time required by smart manufacturing with possible supports from new technologies such as IoT for data collections, robots, cloud computing, and AI for data analyses.
For this year, we have published several papers and there several papers are under review of elegant academic journals.
