Write short note on OSACA open architecture
Open Systems Architecture for Control within Automation Systems (OSACA):
European initiative to define a vendor-neutral, open controller architecture
OSACA’s approach is to develop an API for control applications and an appropriate infrastructure to achieve interoperability, scalability and reusability of applications
Three main areas:
Communication system: to define a hardware and system software independent interface to exchange information between different application modules of a controller
Reference architecture: to determine the functional units of a controller such as Motion Control and Logic Control and specifies the external interfaces of them
Configuration system: to enable dynamic configuration of a controller by combining different application modules at boot-up time
Write short note on NGC open architecture
Next Generation Machine/ Workstation Controller (NGC):
Was initiated by the US government for restructuring machine tool industry by enabling Hardware, software, process control technologies
NGC provides interface for scalability and third party product development
Software interface built based on [NML] Neutral Manufacturing Knowledge process control
Requirements addressed by NGC:
Hardware, software architecture
Network capabilities
Task planning
Process control
Fault management
Sensor interface
Write short note on open architecture
Open architecture for machining process:
Based on open standards
Easy to modify and to exchange data between different types of software application
Supported by a large community of developers
Eg: combination of TCP/IP and HTTP
Some open architectures:
MOSAIC
NGC
MAP
OSACA
SERCOS
Write short notes on different types of knowledge
Knowledge representation is a study of how the beliefs, intentions and judgements of an intelligent agent can be expressed suitably for automated reasoning
Types of knowledge:
Declarative knowledge: includes concepts, facts, objects and expressed in a declarative sentence
Structural knowledge: basic problem-solving knowledge that describes the relationship between concepts and objects
procedural knowledge: includes rules, strategies, procedures to solve task
Meta knowledge: defines knowledge about other types of knowledge
Heuristic knowledge: represents some expert knowledge in the field or subject
What is an integrated circuit? Discuss classification of integrated circuits
IC is a small electronic device made up of multiple interconnected electronic components such as transistors, resistors and capacitors
VLSI circuit is a circuit that contains several transistors fabricated on a single chip
They are classified as:
Small scale integrated circuit: contains less than 100 transistors; 1963
Medium scale integrated circuit: contains 100-3000 transistors; 1970
Large scale integrated circuit: contains 3000-30000 transistors; 1975
Very large scale integrated circuit: contains 30000-1000000 transistors; 1980
Ultra large scale integrated circuit: contains more than 1000000 transistors; 1990
List out and explain the types of sensors
Sensor is a device that detects or measures a physical property and records, indicates or otherwise responds to it
Classification of sensors:
Classification of sensors in view of their applications in manufacturing is as follows:
Displacement, position and proximity sensors
Optical encoders
Hall effect sensors
Velocity and motion sensors
Pyroelectric sensors
Incremental encoder
Force sensors
Strain gauge load cell
Fluid pressure sensors
Tactile sensor
Piezoelectric sensors
Liquid flow sensors
Orifice plate
Turbine motor
Liquid level sensors
Floats
Differential pressure
Temperature sensors
Light sensors
Photo diodes
List out the components of intelligent machining
Components of intelligent machine monitoring system:
External mounted sensors
Data acquisition and management system
Data-driven machine learning and knowledge discovery module
data acquisition and management module:
Data aggregator - collects time synchronized raw data from external sensors
Data post processor - processes the collected data into suitable data formats that can be used by machine learning algorithms to make smarter decisions
Data buffer - stores only relevant data that could be used by machine learning algorithms to generate actionable intelligence
Write short note on Programmable Logic Controller
A programmable logic controller or PLC is a robust industrial computer that monitors input and output and makes a logic based decision for automated process or machines
Main components of a PLC system:
Input arrangement: obtain feedback from processed outputs
Processors: perform necessary calculations to compare the actual output against specification to arrive at changes required to inputs
Output arrangement: provide signals to external devices
Power supply: powers the overall PLC system
