Research on identification of key processes in machining process based on PageRank algorithm
Abstract
Aiming at the difficulty of quantitatively evaluating the critical processes in the manufacturing process of complex mechanical products, a critical process identification method based on the PageRank algorithm is proposed with the goal of identifying key processes in the machining process. Based on the complex network theory, the error transfer network model of the machining process is established in this paper. Adopting the actual machining process as the data set of the complex network, the weights of the machining feature nodes are calculated by the PageRank ranking algorithm, and the nodes are ranked according to the weight values to assess the influence and importance of the nodes in the network model. Finally, taking the connecting rod machining process of a medium-speed marine diesel engine as an example, the results show that the method can quickly and effectively identify the key processes in the machining process.
