A New Teaching Mode for Intelligent Manufacturing System
During the teaching process of the"Intelligent Manufacturing System"course,three major challenges were identified,i.e.,unclear system structure,difficulty in understanding interdisciplinary content,and complexity in assessing learning outcomes.To overcome these challenges,the research team at the School of Automatic Science and Electrical Engineering,Beihang University,proposed a new teaching system and mode for the"Intelligent Manufacturing System"course.This new system and mode consider the Human-Cyber-Physical system for managing the entire life cycle of complex products in the Internet-of-Things environment.It focuses on typical intelligent manufacturing units,multi-layer information integration and management sub-systems,builds a multi-disciplinary collaborative platform and a database,all of which are re-organized as key components of the course.The paper designed a course system that incorporates the aforementioned key technologies,a set of key projects for each part of the course,and a customized assessment mechanism to guide the students.Practical implementation demonstrates that the proposed teaching system and mode effectively cultivate individuals with the capacity to independently solve practical industrial problems.
