The present disclosure relates to nesting sub-spaces for a machine tool by reading in evaluation criteria for an arrangement of nested sub-spaces, generating sequence data for an arrangement of nested sub-spaces, repeatedly performing a process until the result data exceeds a specified range. The process includes: generating evaluation data by evaluating the sequence data with an evaluation algorithm, generating result data based on a combinatorial logic of the evaluation data with the evaluation criteria, generating calculation data from the sequence data, the evaluation data, and the result data using the evaluation algorithm, generating further sequence data taking into account the calculation data with the evaluation algorithm, and repeating the process until the result data exceeds a specified range. The calculation data acts onto the generation of new sequence data to improve an arrangement of nested sub-spaces with respect to evaluation criteria.

Manufacturing system and method for nesting sub-spaces for control of a cutting process

A method for manufacturing control of machining of workpieces in a manufacturing hall that includes providing a plurality of image acquisition devices configured to acquire image sequences of allocated observation areas, identifying an object to be tracked in a first image of a first image sequence using at least one object feature, determining positions of the object feature in images of subsequent image sequences, determining a current position of the object by localizing the object feature in a temporally current image of one of the image sequences, and assigning the position of the object feature in the temporally current image to a current position in the observation area of the image sequence that includes the temporally current image, and integrating the determined current position of the object into the manufacturing control of the hall.

Object tracking-based control of manufacturing processes in the metalworking industry

The invention relates to production planning systems and methods. A production optimization system is provided which has the following: a production environment with at least one first machine, a second machine, a distribution unit configured to be connected to the first machine and the second machine via a communication network and to ascertain the machine state thereof, and an optimization unit configured to generate a production plan where at least one task for producing a product is separated into machine-specific sub-tasks for the first machine or the second machine, said sub-tasks being provided with a sequence for the first machine or the second machine. The distribution unit ascertains the next occurring sub-task for the first machine or the second machine from the optimization unit while taking into consideration the respective machine state, to remove the sub-task from the production plan, and to assign the sub-task to the respective machine.
