This textbook introduces intelligent manufacturing concepts and strategies toward systems’ best performance, especially concerning design and operations. It simplifies theory concepts through examples of real-life systems worldwide and presents many modern concepts such as sensor-based intelligent control systems, industrial decision-making, CAD/CAP/CAM integration in intelligent manufacturing, production control, augmented reality/mixed reality, cloud manufacturing, and manufacturing execution systems.

Intelligence Manufacturing: Concepts and Beyond covers the fundamental principles of intelligent manufacturing and provides a comprehensive resource for readers at different levels of expertise. This textbook is written in an infographic language, making complex concepts accessible to a broader audience. It includes many examples and numerical and practical exercises that reinforce learning and demonstrate how intelligent manufacturing systems work. It discusses contemporary technologies and trends, such as digital control and automation and machine/deep learning, and it provides a global perspective toward new emerging trends as it spans various technologies across different disciplines.

Written for both undergraduate and graduate courses, this textbook will take the reader from basic concepts and applications to advanced topics and can be the sole source to reach knowledge and explore future possibilities related to intelligent manufacturing techniques, methodologies, operations concepts, and beyond.

A solutions manual, PowerPoint slides, and figure slides are available for qualified textbook adoption.
