Özet

The paper starts with the analysis on the need for intelligent manufacturing systems, and proposes our view of the solution to the problem from a mechatronic point of view. It discusses issues related to the flexible modular systems that produce modular flexible products. The paper takes a novel welding technology called friction stir welding as a case study, and investigates issues related to the design of a machine that could automate the process. It presents a function-oriented approach that could provide the guidelines in development of such a system. Along with the various alternatives of the friction stir welding machines concepts, various types of welding configurations are discussed in detail thereby providing necessary details for function-oriented conceptual design of a general-purpose robotic system. The paper, then, presents the system model for an articulated robot manipulator, as suggested by functional design, followed by simulations to investigate its suitability for such an application. The proposed solution not only ensures the achievement of requirements for the intelligent manufacturing systems, but also provides the necessary guidelines in design and development of such systems, as the concluding remarks. The paper is finalized by future developments and suggestions.
