Abstract

Adaptive multi-scale prognostics and health management (AM-PHM) is a methodology designed to support PHM in smart manufacturing systems. AM-PHM is characterized by its incorporation of multi-level, hierarchical relationships and PHM information gathered from a manufacturing system. AM-PHM utilizes diagnostic and prognostic information regarding the current health of the system and its constituent components, and propagates this information up and down the hierarchical structure. By doing so, the AM-PHM methodology creates actionable prognostic and diagnostic intelligence along the manufacturing process hierarchy. This information includes the predicted health state upon completion of a task. The AM-PHM methodology allows for more intelligent decision-making to increase efficiency, performance, safety, reliability, and maintainability. In this paper, The AM-PHM concept is described and then applied to a canonical example robotic assembly process involving two robots working in series.
