电子化制造的介绍

摘要
本文介绍了电子化制造技术，其技术策略、基本要素和实现从制造业向电子商务环境转变的要求。电子化制造是一个使得制造实现基于预测的零故障性能，以及通过网络及非接触式（如无线，网络等）信息电子技术同步商业系统的变革性系统。电子化制造集成了（机器和生产过程层级的）数据流，（工厂和供应系统层级的）信息流和（商业系统层级的）现金流的信息和决策。这一转变取决于“电子工厂”和“电子自动化”的下一代生产操作的进步，旨在在全局基础上通过信息利用实现目标。

Introduction to e-Manufacturing

Abstract
This paper gives an introduction about e-Manufacturing strategies, its fundamental elements and requirements to meet the changing needs of the manufacturing industry in transition to an e-business environment. Briefly speaking, e-Manufacturing is a transformation system that enables the manufacturing operations to achieve predictive near-zero-downtime performance as well as to synchronize with the business systems through the use of web-enabled and tether-free (i.e. wireless, web, etc.) infotronics technologies. It integrates information and decisions in data flow (of machine/process level), information level (of factory and supply system level), and cash flow (of business system level). This transition is dependent upon the advancement of next-generation manufacturing practices on "e-factory and e-automation" which is focused on the use of information to make things happen collaboratively on a global basis.
