Design of mechatronic systems of hybrid machine complexes

Abstract

The world trends over the last half century and prospects for the development of technological equipment complexes for the coming decades are viewed. A comprehensive analysis of the applied stages and stages of designing processing machinery with the help of the construction of traditional mechanical design models is carried out. It is shown that the prospects of using energy flows to intensify machining processes should be analyzed at the early stages of design, using thermal and elec-trophysical criteria to study the emerging connections in the system. It is proposed to start designing mechatronic systems of machine complexes by analyzing structural connections of information technologies in hybrid production, including tradi-tional and additive technologies. It is recommended to use sequences of transfer criteria to analyze the processes of for-mation of material structures and the surface layer under thermomechanical and electrophysical processing. The criteria of heat and mass transfer sequence the structure formation in the finished material with an increase in the power of stimula-tion. The criteria characterizing energy flows within electrophysical processing influence the sequence of surface phenome-na and determine the process of material properties formation. Feedbacks linkage in the control of production machinery is shown through the degrees of tool freedom, particles of the applied material and the layer to be removed, by means of addi-tional effects of energy flows. Taking into account direct and feedback loops in the technological system, numerical control systems should be selected and the machining facility complex should be designed as a mechatronic system. The complex of hybrid technological equipment from the standpoint of computerization of production activities, as well as its modules, should be designed as computer peripherals devices based on the same architecture like a computer.
