Course Content
The course reviews the fundamentals of artificial intelligence and machine learning. It examines the components, functions, and interactions of Intelligent Manufacturing Systems (IMS). Topics include intelligent design, process planning, production scheduling, quality management, transportation, and maintenance integration. The relationship between IMS and systems such as MES, ERP, and PCS is discussed. Students explore how intelligent systems monitor performance, analyze data, generate recommendations, and optimize processes through practical examples.
Objectives of the Course
The aim of this course is to provide students with an understanding of the conceptual structure, components, and industrial applications of Intelligent Manufacturing Systems (IMS). Students learn how to integrate artificial intelligence, machine learning, data analytics, and automation technologies into production processes to develop self-monitoring, self-learning, and self-optimizing manufacturing systems.
