The Architecture and Development Environment of Virtual Manufacturing Systems

摘要

For adapting the demands of the rapid changing and enhancing the competing capability of enterprise in the international market, various modern manufacturing systems have been put forward, which are aimed at various specifications, perfect performance and high quality, low production cost and short manufacturing cycle of products, virtual manufacturing systme (VMS) has been emerged as the times require, which is effective technology to meet the challenge of 21 century's manufacturing industries. Based on analyzing modern manufacturing systems. according to the characteristics and requirement of VMS, in this paper, the architcture, the key technologies and the implement way of VMS were explored, and development environment for VMS was put forward, which is a powerful tool for building VMS.
