Summary
The creation of an innovative reconfigurable production line. This system will have interchangeable product testing stations with dedicated RT controllers. Each station is dynamic and can re-configure test setting depending on the part type present in real time. Furthermore, part routine and data collect will be orchestrated by a master controller via TCP, enabling the implementation of high computation analytics and ensure seamless data interoperability between stations. This system is a service oriented production line, which is open, flexible to change, and extensible for future development. Core station operations include: High voltage testing (HIPOT), electrical resistance measurement, thermal imaging and analysis, serial part printing.

The foundation of my research lays in my Ph.D research which explored the dynamics of decentralised software architecture within field-level manufacturing process monitoring systems. The need for this understanding has been driven by the prediction that these cyber-physical systems will create the next generation of innovative intelligent machines. This research investigates the capability of decentralisation design to provide the core fundamental functionality of process monitoring systems in a new reconfigurable format. The embodiment of this investigation is the design and development of a decentralised architecture for the creation of a reconfigurable process monitoring system within field-level manufacturing.
