Abstract

Intelligent metrology, quality assurance and quality management play an important and basic role in modern cost-effective customer-driven design and manufacturing. To meet market demands in present and future global industrial world, manufacturing enterprises must be flexible and agile enough to respond quickly to product demand changes. With support of artificial intelligence and modern information technology it is possible to realise modern cost-effective customer-driven design and manufacturing taking into account the importance and basic role of quality management and metrology and building up the basis for simultaneous concurrent quality assurance and technical diagnostics.<BR />These basic ideas are integrated into an innovative concept and model for modern enterprises that makes possible agile and optimal industrial production. The core part of this proposal is an intelligent measuring cell for quality assurance, data collection and data evaluation. This new approach is already realized at the Department of the authors.
