Article Preview

Abstract:

Under the great trend of social manufacturing, the professional social division of labour in manufacturing industry and the distribution of manufacturing resources force more and more enterprises focus on their core business than ever before and outsource most of the non-core manufacturing activities to other professional organizations. In this condition, this paper proposed a new-type cloud system which is call cloud machining community (CMC) to integrate the distributed MRs and provide on-demand services for service requestors who need them. The framework of CMC together with it working flow is proposed. At last, some key enabling technologies are talked about in detail, such as virtual access of machining resources (MRs) and machining demands (MDs), retrieval and matching between MRs and MDs, generation of machining groups and creditworthiness evaluation mechanism.
