Abstract
An innovative model of equipping manufacturing machine with multi-sensor and Web techniques was proposed in order to solve the capture and transmission of real-time manufacturing information during the ongoing manufacturing activities. Through installing multi-sensor devices at machine side, a multi-sensor-based network model was constructed to form hardware foundation for collecting real- time information. Then, Agent technology was adopted to encapsulate various sensors. Corresponding real-time manufacturing information was captured under workflow management and was processed and stored according to standard templates. Execution process of the model was characterized by transparency and accessibility. The model provided solution to digital production. Finally, a case study was given to verify the prototype system.
