INTEGRATION OF PROCESS PLANNING FOR DISTRIBUTED MANUFACTURING IN VIRTUAL ENVIRONMENT

Abstract

Production process planning in real or virtual environment refers to the choice of parameters and sequencing of certain manufacturing processes with the aim to obtain the required product features with greater productivity, reduced production costs, shorter development time, etc. Therefore, innovative systems for virtual process planning, based on intelligent agents, greatly improve adaptation to dynamic changes and uncertain disturbances in the production process and environment. Achieving these objectives in distributed production environment, to a large extent, is obtained through Internet and modern Web and VR technologies.
