Overview of IoT-Enabled Manufacturing System

Abstract

Typical challenges that manufacturing systems are facing now are: (1) lack of timely, accurate, and consistent information of distributed manufacturing resources of a manufacturing system such as shop floor; (2) lack of an overall solution to track, trace, share the real-time manufacturing information among manufacturing system layer, workshop floor layer, and machine layer, and then provide an optimal decision for the manufacturing system. Recent developments in wireless sensors, communication and information network technologies have created a new era of the Internet of things (IoT). In this chapter, an overview of IoT-enabled manufacturing system (IoT-MS) is presented to provide ...
