Abstract:

In this paper the industrial automation of the production process, which is based on the fusion of a CNC machine and an industrial robot, is described. The functional structure of the flexible production cell, its configuration, programming methods and applications in industry are explained in detail. Based on the application of artificial intelligence, an example of making a machine part with the use of machines and software of the latest generation is given. Using this approach it is achieved significant shortening of production time, increased productivity and almost total elimination of scrap. Special attention is given to the current fourth industrial revolution and the application of the CAD / CAM / CNC concept in the future.
