Evolvable Production Systems: Mechatronic
Production Equipment with Evolutionary Control
Abstract : Current major roadmapping efforts have all clearly
underlined that true industrial sustainability will require far higher
levels of systems' autonomy and adaptability. In accordance with these
recommendations, the Evolvable Production Systems (EPS) has aimed at
developing such technological solutions and support mechanisms. Since
its inception in 2002 as a next generation of production systems, the
concept is being further developed and tested to emerge as a production
system paradigm. Characteristically, Evolvable systems have distributed
control, and are composed of intelligent modules with embedded control.
A concerted effort is being exerted through European research projects
in collaboration with manufacturers, technology/equipment suppliers, and
universities. After introducing EPS, this paper presents current
developments and applications.
