Abstract
To implement sharing and optimized configuration of distributed manufacturing resources in the networked manufacturing environment, a concept of Collaborative Manufacturing Chain (CMC) oriented to complex parts was proposed. Characteristics of CMC were analyzed. The generation and evolution process of CMC was illustrated by analyzing the manufacturing process of complex parts in a certain aero-engine. In order to solve the problem of optimized configuration in CMC effectively, a combinatorial optimization policy based on ant algorithm was put forward. Finally, the construction and operation of CMC was implemented by the developed networked collaborative manufacturing platform.
