Abstract:

The aim of this paper is to presents an interdisciplinary approach to the problem of manufacturing process support using Artificial Intelligence (AI) by introducing a cross physical-information control system concept. The scope of the article covers description of logical architecture concept, data exchange process and autonomous steering mechanism using artificial intelligent method. The article indicates that in order to successfully support manufacturing process using Artificial Intelligence proper logical support system architecture need to be applied. It is important to emphasize that the use of AI method is not enough to cover multidimensional production issues of gathering and processing data. Therefore whole system need to be organized in this way to support AI with data to be processed. Thanks to that, it is possible to meet many different goals and achieve significant results in the field of manufacturing process. Because of that in this paper the main focus is put on system logical architecture with descriptions of each element involved. Moreover, the article describes AI controller mechanism applied running on real time raw data collected from machines and products. Findings presented within paper could be use in real case scenarios as a design pattern to develop, deploy or optimize production management systems in small-medium enterprises based on low cost solutions of Internet of Things (IoT) providing data to be analyzed with use of cloud computing technology running AI algorithms.
