APPLICATION OF A COMPUTER TOOL MONITORING SYSTEM IN CNC MACHINING CENTRES

Print
The article presents practical knowledge about production process optimisation as a result of implementing a specialized system monitoring the work of machining tools. It features complex results of the conducted research with use of dedicated equipment and software, whose unconventional application may appear to be an effective IT tool for taking operational and strategic decisions in the machining area. This results from the possibility of analysing the obtained data in both current and long-term perspective, and taking decisions on this basis, which significantly conditions the rationality of using this type of solutions.

PRIORITY ALGORITHMS FOR THE PROBLEM OF FINANCIAL OPTIMISATION OF A MULTI STAGE PROJECT

Print
The article presents the problem of the financial optimisation of a multi-stage project from the contractor's perspective, where customer's payments are analysed as a cash inflow (contractor's revenues) after completing contractual stages and contractor's expenses incurred for the activities executed. In order to solve the problem, priority algorithms are proposed: single-pass and multi-pass ones, using different priority rules and techniques for generating solutions dedicated to the investigated optimisation model. The article presents a comparison of the effectiveness of individual algorithms in the case of adequately prepared test problems.

PRODUCTION PLANNING IN CONDITIONS OF MASS CUSTOMIZATION BASED ON THEORY OF CONSTRAINTS

Print
In accordance with the requirements of the modern market, small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) need to offer a wide range of products tailored to the specific and individual requirements. The success of many enterprises, which work in mass production system and use economic effect of scale production slowly is a thing of the past. There are many enterprises, generally small and medium manufacturing in unit and small batch production, for which it is necessary to develop  optimal methods of production planning, taking into account the flexible production requirements, matched to the time-varying customer’s demand. The article presents the production planning based on TOC in conditions of mass customization. Presented solutions are used in modern practice.

LIMITING VALUE OF COCKROFT-LATHAM INTEGRAL FOR COMMERCIAL PLASTICINE

Print
The paper presents the results of experimental and numerical research in the scope of commercial plasticine cracking. The purpose of the study was to determine the limit value of the Cockroft-Latham integral. The value of the integral was determined on the basis of the stretching test and computer simulations. Experimental studies utilized axially symmetrical samples made of commercial black and white wax based plasticine. Samples were cooled to 0, 5, 10, 15 and 20 °C. After the completion of experimental studies, finite element numerical simulation was performed under the conditions of 3-dimensional state of deformation in DEFORM 3D simulation software. Based on the results of experimental and numerical studies, the Cockroft-Latham limit value was calculated.

NUMERICAL RESULTS QUALITY IN DEPENDENCE ON ABAQUS PLANE STRESS ELEMENTS TYPE IN BIG DISPLACEMENTS COMPRESSION TEST

Print
The paper presents a brief description of the Abaqus Simulia plane stress quadrilateral elements (CPS4R, CPS4I, CPS4, CPS8R, CPS8). Comparison of the results quality obtained using each of them was done. There was considered two dimensional big displacements compression test for a highly orthotropic material. Simulations were performed for the compression in two perpendicular directions.

THE POSSIBILITY OF USING WOOD FIBER MATS IN PRODUCTS MANUFACTURING MADE OF POLYMER COMPOSITES BASED ON NUMERICAL SIMULATIONS

Print
In this work the calculations for predicting the properties of wood fiber mats – polyester resin composite using numerical homogenization method were performed. For this purpose, the microstructural strength properties were calculated using DIGIMAT FE commercial code. In addition, for comparative purposes a calculation of polyester resin - glass fiber composites was conducted. This allowed to compare the properties of two types of compositions. In addition, the obtained strength properties were used to simulate the work of product made of these composites. This study was performed using the Ansys commercial code. Usability of the polyester resin - wood fiber mat composite and knowledge of its properties will allow to find a correct application of this composite type and can provide an alternative way to other polymeric resin reinforced by mat.

APPLICATION OF NEURAL NETWORKS IN PREDICTION OF TENSILE STRENGTH OF ABSORBABLE SUTURES

Print

The paper presents results of research on neural network application in forecasting the tensile strength of two types of sutures. The preliminary research was conducted in order to establish the accuracy of the proposed method and will be used for formulating further research areas. The neural network enabled evaluation of suture material degradation after 3-to-6-days’ exposure to Ringer’s solution. The encountered problems regarding inaccuracies show that developing a single model for sutures may be difficult or impossible. Therefore future research should be conducted for a single type of sutures only and require applying additional parameters for the neural network.
