Book Smart System Monitoring for High Dimensional Multistage Manufacturing Processes

Download or read book Smart System Monitoring for High Dimensional Multistage Manufacturing Processes written by Mohammadhossein Amini and published by . This book was released on 2019 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This research studies a system-wide approach to monitor product quality in real time to avoid manufacturing defects in high dimensional multistage processes. Traditional control charts have been widely used in various manufacturing industries due to their simplicity. However, in today's complex manufacturing processes, these charts are not efficient anymore. A complex manufacturing process may include multiple stages with sensors embedded throughout the processes that generate a huge amount of data in high dimensions. Since the numbers of stages and parameters are usually very large, traditional control charts are incapable of handling a multistage high-dimensional problem mainly due to the problem of false alarm rates of simultaneous monitoring. Industry 4.0 and Internet of things (IOT) provides opportunities to achieve better quality products toward a zero defect system. Currently, data is either thrown away or stored in unused databases. In a inefficient approach called "fire-fighting", when there is a decline in the quality, process engineers go back to archived process data to figure out the problem. However, due to various reasons such as messy and unclean data, outdated data, and common manufacturing data features such as complexity and dimensionality issues, this process may take a long time. In the best cases, researchers provide classification-based process monitoring techniques to use the manufacturing data. However, the state-of-the-art classification-based process monitoring techniques usually provide quality predictions at the end of the manufacturing process and provide no chance to fix the problem. In addition, knowing high dimensional, unbalanced, and newly released manufacturing data, the literature is largely silent on providing a comprehensive study addressing those issues. While addressing above mentioned challenges, the proposed research delivers a stage-wise process monitoring which provides plenty of time for engineers to fix the process before the last point. Then, based on the results from the predictive models, adjustable process parameters can be altered to avoid potential defects. The proposed research relies on predictive models which are built on a series of classifiers. The proposed research is implemented in two different manufacturing application - additive manufacturing (AM) and semiconductor production. The proposed research in the AM industry called the Multi-Layer Classification Process Monitoring (MLCPM) is applied in the Laser Powder Bed Fusion (LPBF) metal printing process. In the semiconductor manufacturing industry, we applied the proposed method on a very imbalanced high dimensional production data called SECOM (SEmiCOnductor Manufacturing) which is publicly available through the UCI repository lab. In this study, we examined various classification models and sampling approaches to find the best results in terms of specific metrics chosen regarding the imbalanced nature of the problem. The applied case studies show the effectiveness of the proposed framework in terms of accurately predict the real-time production quality state. The chance of predicting the quality of the process before the last step provides chances to reduce the waste and save cost and time in the production systems.

Book Identifying Product and Process State Drivers in Manufacturing Systems Using Supervised Machine Learning

Download or read book Identifying Product and Process State Drivers in Manufacturing Systems Using Supervised Machine Learning written by Thorsten Wuest and published by Springer. This book was released on 2015-04-20 with total page 284 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book reports on a novel approach for holistically identifying the relevant state drivers of complex, multi-stage manufacturing systems. This approach is able to utilize complex, diverse and high-dimensional data sets, which often occur in manufacturing applications, and to integrate the important process intra- and interrelations. The approach has been evaluated using three scenarios from different manufacturing domains (aviation, chemical and semiconductor). The results, which are reported in detail in this book, confirmed that it is possible to incorporate implicit process intra- and interrelations on both a process and programme level by applying SVM-based feature ranking. In practice, this method can be used to identify the most important process parameters and state characteristics, the so-called state drivers, of a manufacturing system. Given the increasing availability of data and information, this selection support can be directly utilized in, e.g., quality monitoring and advanced process control. Importantly, the method is neither limited to specific products, manufacturing processes or systems, nor by specific quality concepts.

Book Data Driven Modeling  Monitoring and Control for Smart and Connected Systems

Download or read book Data Driven Modeling Monitoring and Control for Smart and Connected Systems written by Chao Wang and published by . This book was released on 2019 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Information revolution is turning modern engineering systems into smart and connected systems. The smart and connected systems are defined by three characteristics: tangible physical components that comprise the system, connectivity among components that enables data acquisition and sharing, and smart data analytics and decision making capability. Examples of smart and connected systems include GM's OnStar® tele-service system and the InSite® tele-monitoring system from GE. The unprecedented data availability in smart and connected systems provides significant opportunities for data analytics. For example, since we have observations from potentially a very large number of similar units, we can compare their operations, share the information, and extract some common knowledge to enable accurate prediction and control at the individual level. In addition, for a complex system such as multistage manufacturing processes, we can collect synchronized data from multiple stations within the system so that we can identify the operational relationships among these stations. Such relationship can enable better process control. On the other hand, the tremendous data volume and types also reveal critical challenges. First, the high dimensional data with heterogeneity often poses difficulties in sharing common information within/across similar units/processes in the smart and connected systems. This problem becomes more severe when the system under the start-up period, where insufficient data and experience could result in the deficiency of data driven approaches. Second, the non-Gaussian data and non-linear relationship among various units impede the quantitative description of the inter-relationship of processes in the smart and connected systems. Although existing non-parametric methods, e.g., Kriging, can deal with these situations to some extent, limited description power (focus on mean value prediction) and lack of physical interpretation are the common drawbacks in these methods. Moreover, the real time monitoring and control for the smart and connected systems require efficient and scalability algorithms and strategies to meet the rapid and large scale response under advanced sensing and data acquisition environment. Lastly, the efficient control of the smart and connected systems also becomes challenging due to the complex relationship among units. Data-driven methods are required to meet the exigent demands for effectively formulating and solving the control problem. To address the issues listed above, four tasks are investigated in this dissertation under different applications in the smart and connected systems. [1] Transfer learning among heterogeneous multistage manufacturing processes. A series of data analytical methods for modeling and learning inter-relationships among product quality characteristics in multistage connected manufacturing processes are developed. The methods offer a rigorous way to reveal commonalities among heterogeneous data from different manufacturing processes to benefit the learning in complex connected manufacturing processes. [2] Statistical modeling and inference for Key Performance Indicators (KPI) in production systems. A surrogate model for inference and prediction at distribution level of different KPIs is developed. This model utilizes the pair-copula construction to capture the non-linear association in the non-Gaussian data. [3] Real time contamination detection in water distribution network. A contamination source identification framework is proposed for real time tracking and detection of contamination released in the urban water distribution network. The framework utilizes the Bayesian theory to sequentially update the posterior probability for determining the contamination source upon very limited sensor readings. [4] Control of KPIs in manufacturing production systems. The KPI control problem is formulated as a stochastic optimization problem, where the noise distribution in the cost function depends on the decision variables. The standard uniform distributions are employed to link the KPI relationship surrogate model and the objective function to efficiently solve the KPI control problem. The proposed methods can be applied to a broad range of data analytics problems, and the emerging challenges in modeling, monitoring and control of smart and connected systems can be effectively addressed.

Book Intelligent Maintenance and Monitoring Strategy for Smart Manufacturing Systems

Download or read book Intelligent Maintenance and Monitoring Strategy for Smart Manufacturing Systems written by Honghan Ye and published by . This book was released on 2021 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In smart manufacturing systems, production scheduling, maintenance decision-making, and process monitoring are three key, closely interconnected components, which play significant roles in the system performance, quality control, and overall cost. Due to the rapid advancement of in-process measurements and sensor technology, massive data frequently appear in modern industries. While such a data-rich environment has the potential to better reveal real-time details of the underlying system and make better decisions for the system improvement, it also presents significant challenges in the following perspectives: (i) how to effectively leverage the acquired knowledge to balance trade-offs between conflicting objectives, (ii) how to optimally design the monitoring system given the practical resources constraint, and (iii) how to efficiently handle the high-dimensional heterogeneous information with different acquisition rates, distributions, and characteristics. This thesis concentrates on production and maintenance scheduling, and process monitoring to develop systematic analytics methodologies for quality control, cost reduction, and performance improvement in smart manufacturing systems. By incorporating engineering domain knowledge with advanced statistical techniques, the proposed methodologies facilitate (i) the real-time decisions that improve the system production and maintenance scheduling, (ii) the effective monitoring of system status, (iii) the informative and intelligent decisions on balancing between exploration and exploitation given the limited monitoring resources, and (iv) the asynchronous process monitoring with different data acquisition rates. The first chapter introduces the background and challenges in production and maintenance scheduling, and monitoring in smart manufacturing systems, and establishes the major research objective of the thesis. Chapter 2 addresses a joint scheduling problem that considers corrective maintenance (CM) due to unexpected breakdowns and scheduled preventive maintenance (PM) in a generic M-machine flow shop. The objective is to find the optimal job sequence and PM schedule such that the total of tardiness cost, PM cost, and CM cost is minimized. To address this critical research issue, our novel idea is to dynamically update the PM interval based on real-time machine age, such that maintenance activity coordinates with job scheduling to the maximum extent, which results in an overall cost saving. With the rapid development of sensor technology, real-time observations from the sensors can be used to describe the machine status more accurately and achieve early anomaly detection. In Chapter 3, we propose a nonparametric monitoring and sampling algorithm integrated with Thompson sampling to quickly detect abnormalities occurring in heterogeneous data streams. In particular, a Bayesian approach is incorporated with an antirank-based cumulative sum (CUSUM) procedure to collectively estimate the underlying status of all data streams based on the partially observed data. Furthermore, an intelligent sampling strategy based on Thompson sampling (TS) algorithm is proposed to dynamically observe the informative data streams and balance between exploration and exploitation to facilitate quick anomaly detection. While the proposed method in Chapter 3 shows good performance in monitoring heterogeneous data streams, it heavily relies on the assumption that full historical in-control observations of all data streams are available offline, which does not always hold in practice. To address this issue, Chapter 4 further proposes a generic online nonparametric monitoring and sampling scheme occurring in high-dimensional heterogeneous processes when only partial observations are available. Specifically, we integrate the TS algorithm with a quantile-based nonparametric CUSUM procedure to construct local statistics of all data streams based on the partially observed data. Further, we develop a global monitoring scheme by using the sum of top-r local statistics to screen out the most suspicious data streams. Chapter 5 proposes a generic top - r based asynchronous monitoring (TRAM) framework to online monitor high-dimensional heterogeneous and asynchronous processes, where measurements of each data stream follow arbitrary distributions and are collected at different sampling intervals. In particular, we first adopt a quantile-based nonparametric CUSUM scheme to monitor each data stream locally. Then, an effective compensation strategy is proposed for unsampled data streams at the local statistics level to alleviate severe detection delay when mean shifts occur to long-sampling-interval data streams. Furthermore, we develop a global monitoring scheme using the sum of top - r local statistics, which is able to quickly detect a wide range of possible mean shifts in all directions. Chapter 6 then summarizes the contribution of the thesis. In summary, this thesis contributes to developing systematic analytics methodologies for quality control, cost reduction, and performance improvement in smart manufacturing systems. The developed methods are generic and can also be applied to other applications such as healthcare, energy and climate research, which will lead to improved maintenance scheduling, efficient resource allocation, and significant overall cost savings.

Book Process Monitoring and Predictive Analytics in Multi stage Manufacturing Processes Using Partial Least Square Methods

Download or read book Process Monitoring and Predictive Analytics in Multi stage Manufacturing Processes Using Partial Least Square Methods written by Swarup Guha and published by . This book was released on 2015 with total page 44 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The quality of products manufactured by a multistage process is often determined by complex interactions among various quality attributes of the multiple stages of the process. As a result, the quality characteristics of a stage are not only influenced by local variation at that stage but also by the propagated variations from the upstream. Therefore, accurate prediction of variables at different stages of operation of a multistage manufacturing process (MMP) is critical for diagnosis and prognostic purposes and ensuring the high quality of the product. At present, there is no generalized model or variation reduction technique available to effectively monitor and control the processes in MMP setup capable of handling large number of variables, as it is very common in MMP. This paper proposes a methodology which can be used for monitor processes at each stage using multivariate EWMA control chart and design a regression model for accurate prediction of the downstream variables using the partial least square (PLS) method. In addition, the paper presents an optimization technique to minimize overall system variance and a goodness of fit test for finding root causes behind an out of control signal. The proposed methods are validated by real data from an auto manufacturing company in Michigan and a natural gas distribution company in Texas.

Book Intelligent Monitoring and Supervisory Control System in Peripheral Milling Process in High Speed Machining

Download or read book Intelligent Monitoring and Supervisory Control System in Peripheral Milling Process in High Speed Machining written by Antonio Jr Vallejo Guevara and published by . This book was released on 2009 with total page 203 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This research is leading to solve a real problem in High Speed Machining processes (HSM), specifically in the peripheral milling process. Nowadays, the machining processes have increased their complexity by considering the HSM, because of the high dimensional precision, high surface quality, and the minimum cost in the demanded products. The general scope of this research is: Design and implement an intelligent monitoring and supervisory control system for peripheral milling process in HSM. The main objectives of this research are defined as follows: 2 Implement a general model to predict the surface roughness by considering several aluminium alloys, cutting parameters, geometries, and cutting tools. 2 Design and implement a monitoring and diagnosis system for the cutting tool wear condition during the machining process. 2 Design and develop an intelligent process planning system, which includes a merit variable to compute the optimal cutting parameters and a decision-making module to recommend some actions in agreement with the cutting tool wear condition. The design and implementation of the system implied to make research, exhaust experiments, and write several papers to validate the proposal ideas and algorithms. The main contributions can be summarized as follows: 2 A complete data acquisition system was implemented in a machining center HS-1000 Kondia. Several sensors were installed to characterize the surface roughness (Ra) and flank wear of the cutting tool with the process state variables. The Mel Frequency Cepstrum Coefficients (MFCC) computed from the process signals were used for modelling the Ra with ANN models. 2 Related with the Ra modelling, the most important factors affecting the Ra were deduced by applying the screening factorial design. Also, Response Surface Methodology was applied with excellent results for modeling the Ra. The models were computed for a new, half-new, half-worn, and worn cutting tool condition. Multi-sensor and data fusion were used to build ANN models with excellent results. 2 New ideas based in the Hidden Markov Models (HMM) and the MFCC were developed for monitoring and diagnosis the cutting tool wear condition for peripheral milling process in HSM. The system was implemented for recognizing on-line four cutting tool wear conditions: new, half-new, half-worn, and worn condition. 2 The design and implementation of the intelligent monitoring and process planning system (IMPPS) represented the main module of the intelligent monitoring and supervisory control system. In this module, Genetic Algorithms with the RSM models were used to compute the optimal cutting parameters in Pre-process operating mode with excellent results. Another contribution was the implementation of the Markov Decision Process in the optimization process. This algorithm recommends optimal actions for minimizing the operation cost during the production of specific workpieces.

Book Multidimensional Visualization of Process Monitoring and Quality Assurance Data in High volume Discrete Manufacturing

Download or read book Multidimensional Visualization of Process Monitoring and Quality Assurance Data in High volume Discrete Manufacturing written by Jay Marshall Teets and published by . This book was released on 2007 with total page 137 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Advances in microcomputing hardware and software over the last several years have resulted in personal computers with exceptional computational power and speed. As the costs associated with microcomputer hardware and software continue to decline, manufacturers have begun to implement numerous information technology components on the shop floor. Components such as microcomputer file servers and client workstations are replacing traditional (manual) methods of data collection and analysis since they can be used as a tool for real-time decision-making. Server-based and web-based shop floor data collection and monitoring software applications are able to collect vast amounts of data in a relatively short period of time. In addition, advances in telecommunications and computer interconnectivity allow for the remote access and sharing of this data for additional analysis. Rarely, however, does the method by which a manager reviews production and quality data keep pace with the large amount of data being collected and thus available for analysis.

Book Sensor based Modeling and Analysis of Advanced Manufacturing Systems for Quality Improvements

Download or read book Sensor based Modeling and Analysis of Advanced Manufacturing Systems for Quality Improvements written by Farhad Imani and published by . This book was released on 2020 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Advanced sensing is increasingly invested in modern manufacturing systems to cope with the complexity and enhance information visibility, thereby leading to data-rich environments. Generated data provide unprecedented opportunities to investigate system dynamics and further improve quality monitoring and control for advanced manufacturing in real-time. However, high-dimensionality and complex structures of sensing data pose significant challenges. Realizing full potentials of sensing data depends to a great extent on the development of novel analytical methods and tools for effective modeling, monitoring, and control of manufacturing systems. The research objective of this dissertation is to develop new learning methodologies for real-time quality monitoring and control of complex manufacturing systems. This body of research will enable and assist in 1) understanding the effect of process conditions on quality of manufacturing builds, 2) extracting sensitive features and characterizing patterns of image data, 3) diagnosing defects in low-volume and highly-customized production settings, and 4) handling high dimensional spatiotemporal data. My research accomplishments include: 1) Process mapping and monitoring of porosity in additive manufacturing (AM): In Chapter 2, spectral graph theory and multifractal analysis are developed to quantify the effect of process conditions on lack of fusion porosity in builds made using AM process, and subsequently, to detect the onset of process conditions that lead to lack of fusion porosity from in-process sensor data. 2) Multifractal and lacunarity analysis for nonlinear pattern characterization: In Chapter 3, the joint multifractal and lacunarity analysis is designed to resolve local densities and characterize the filling patterns in image profiles. Further, we derive the composite quality index by computing Hotelling T2 statistics from multifractal and lacunarity features for defect detection and characterization in ultra precision machining (UPM) and AM image profiles. 3) Image-guided variant geometry analysis of layerwise build quality: In Chapter 4, we develop a tailored deep neural network (DNN) framework that learns the broad geometrical diversity of images from builds made with AM. The proposed methodology leverages the computer-aided design (CAD) file to register the region of interest (ROI) in each layerwise image. Next, we propose a dyadic partitioning method to delineate variant ROI into distinctive regions with the same size and in multiple scales. Then, we leverage the semiparametric spatial model to characterize the complex spatial patterns in subregion ROIs. Finally, a DNN is designed to learn incipient flaws from spatial characterization images. 4) Spatiotemporal Gaussian process for AM quality monitoring: In Chapter 5, a novel spatiotemporal Gaussian process (STGP) is introduced to model the standard geometric profile within ROIs and capture layer-to-layer spatiotemporal deviations for quality monitoring. Finally, we leverage the STGP model to develop new monitoring charts, namely, the STT2 and STLR tests, for the anomaly detection in AM processes. This framework enables on-the-fly assessment of AM build quality.
