STC A,  65/2/2016,  P.689
Keywords: Lifecycle, Human aspect, Social sustainability
Abstract : Manufacturing affects all three dimensions of sustainability: economy, environment, and society. This paper addresses the last of these dimensions. It explores social impacts identified by national level social indicators, frameworks, and principles. The effects of manufacturing on social performance are framed for different stakeholder groups with associated social needs. Methodology development as well as various challenges for social life cycle assessment (S-LCA) are further examined. Efforts to integrate social and another dimension of sustainability are considered, with attention to globalization challenges, including offshoring and reshoring. The paper concludes with a summary of key takeaways and promising directions for future work.

STC E,  65/2/2016,  P.761
Keywords: Ceramic, Electrical Discharge Machining, Rapid Prototyping
Abstract : Thanks to the favourable combination of outstanding mechanical, thermal and chemical properties, engineering ceramics, such as oxides, carbides and nitrides find widespread applications in the modern industry. Nevertheless, their extensive use is still hindered by the implementation of labour and cost intensive manufacturing chain which poses various technological challenges. Many electro, chemical and physical shaping techniques have been investigated in the recent years in order to offer efficient alternatives, and there are numerous experimental evidences available in the literature. With the ambitious to provide a comprehensive overview of the current technological trends and main perspectives, this work offers an extensive survey of the available data in shaping of engineering ceramics by electro, chemical and physical processes. Focus is paid on experimental research on processes, as for electrical discharge machining, additive manufacturing, and laser beam machining. The considered literature data are going back to the early 80’s.

J.M. Allwood (1), S.R. Duncan, J. Cao (1), P. Groche (1), G. Hirt (2), B. Kinsey, T. Kuboki, M. Liewald (3), A. Sterzing, A.E. Tekkaya (1)  
STC F,  65/2/2016,  P.573
Keywords: Metal Forming, Product Properties, Control
Abstract : Metal forming processes operate in conditions of uncertainty due to parameter variation and imperfect understanding. This uncertainty leads to a degradation of product properties from customer specifications, which can be reduced by the use of closed-loop control. A framework of analysis is presented for understanding closed-loop control in metal forming, allowing an assessment of current and future developments in actuators, sensors and models. This leads to a survey of current and emerging applications across a broad spectrum of metal forming processes, and a discussion of likely developments.

Chatter suppression techniques in metal cutting
J. Munoa (2), X. Beudaert (3), Z. Dombovari, Y. Altintas (1), E. Budak (1), C. Brecher (1), G. Stepan (2)  
STC M,  65/2/2016,  P.785
Keywords: Chatter, vibrations, mechatronics
Abstract : The self-excited vibration, called chatter, is one of the main limitations in metal removal processes. Chatter may spoil the surface of the part and can also cause large reduction in the life of the different components of the machine tool including the cutting tool itself. During the last 60 years, several techniques have been proposed to suppress chatter. This keynote paper presents a critical review of the different chatter suppression techniques. Process solutions with design and control approaches are compiled to provide a complete view of the available methods to stabilize the cutting process. The evolution of each technique is described remarking the most important milestones in research and the corresponding industrial application. The selection of the most appropriate technique for each specific chatter problem is also discussed considering various aspects of machining processes.

STC O,  65/2/2016,  P.621
Keywords: Manufacturing systems, cyber-physical systems, distributed systems
Abstract : One of the most significant advances in the development of computer science, information and communication technologies is represented by the Cyber-Physical Systems (CPS). They are systems of collaborating computational entities which are in intensive connection with the surrounding physical world and its on-going processes, providing and using, at the same time, data-accessing and data-processing services available on the Internet. Cyber-Physical Production Systems (CPPS), relying on the latest, and the foreseeable further developments of computer science, information and communication technologies on one hand, and of manufacturing science and technology, on the other, may lead to the 4th Industrial Revolution, frequently noted as Industrie 4.0. The paper underlines that there are significant roots in general - and in particular to the CIRP community - which point towards CPPS. Expectations towards research in and implementation of CPS and CPPS are outlined and some case studies are introduced. Related new R&D challenges are highlighted.

Advances in Large Scale Metrology - Review and Future Trends
R. Schmitt (2), M. Peterek, E. Morse, W. Knapp (1), M. Galetto, F. Härtig, G. Goch (1), B. Hughes, A. Forbes, W.T. Estler (1)  
STC P,  65/2/2016,  P.643
Keywords: Metrology, Modeling, Large-Scale Metrology
Abstract : The field of large scale metrology has been studied extensively for many decades and represents the combination and competition of topics as diverse as geodesy and laboratory calibration. A primary reason that large scale metrology continues to represent the research frontier is that technological advances introduced and perfected at a conventional scale face additional challenges which increase non-linearly with size. This necessitates new ways of considering the entire measuring process, resulting in the application of concepts such as virtual measuring processes and cyber-physical systems. This paper reports on the continuing evolution of large scale metrology.

V. Schulze (2), F. Bleicher (3), P. Groche (1), Y.B. Guo (2), Y.S. Pyune  
STC S,  65/2/2016,  P.809
Keywords: Surface integrity, Surface modification, Guided tools
Abstract : A wide range of surface modification processes has been developed over the past decades. Beside the well‐established processes such as shot peening, there are other emerging surface modification processes such as machine hammer peening with a potential of applications that still needs to be evaluated. Therefore, all surface modification processes using guided tools with periodic or continuous contact to the workpiece are compared in this paper. After a classification of the processes, the paper presents a systematic description by comparing the different technologies and it explains the proposed standardized nomenclature. It identifies the relevant physical mechanisms of the surface modifications processes and it compares the influences on surface roughness, residual stresses, work hardening and microstructure. One section is dedicated to the need of an accompanying quality assurance. Furthermore, the capabilities of different process simulation approaches are analyzed with respect to process mechanisms and the resulting surface layer characteristics. The service performance such as fatigue life, corrosion resistance, friction and wear are discussed based on best practice results. Finally, the paper discusses the actual and potential applications of surface modification processes: surface strengthening, post welding treatments, smoothing of tools and molds as well as surface structuring and embedding of coating materials.
