Title
Smart Inspection Tools Combining Multi-Agent Systems And Advanced Quality Control
Abstract
Although the everlasting goal of achieving a zero-defect production system is not new, the current state of the art has not yet allowed to reach this objective. This paper describes the architectural system foundations of the European R&D GO0DMAN project where a multi-agent system is developed as the mean to provide a real-time, multi-level and multi-stage approach to reach a zero-defect production system in multi-stage environments. Particularly, the paper focuses the integration of software agents and quality control stations forming smart inspection tools, aligned with the cyber-physical systems principles. The proposed approach is validated using an electrical motor testbed, where the agent-based system allows the digitization of the running testing system in a multi-stage schema.
