Description
Summary:Industry 4.0 represents high-level methodologies to make intelligent, autonomous, and self-adaptable manufacturing systems. Additionally, the surface modeling technology has become a great tool in industry 4.0 for representing the surface point cloud. Thus, the micro-scale machining technology requires efficient models to represent micro-scale flat and free-form surfaces. Therefore, it is fundamental to perform surface modeling through artificial intelligence for representing small surfaces. This study addressed multi-objective optimization via genetic algorithms and micro laser line projection to accomplish surface models for representing micro-scale flat and free-form surfaces, where an optical microscope system retrieves micro-scale topography via micro laser line coordinates and the multi-objective optimization constructs the flat and free-form surface models through genetic algorithms and micro-scale topography. The multi-objective optimization determines the surface model parameters through exploration and exploitation, and the solution space is deduced via surface data. The surface model generated through the multi-objective optimization fit accurately to the micro-scale target surface. Thus, the proposed technique enhanced the fitting of micro-scale flat and free-form surface models, which were deduced via gray-level images of an optical microscope. This enhancement was validated by a discussion between the multi-objective optimization via genetic algorithms and the micro-scale surface modeling via optical microscope imaging systems.
