Abstract
The JTECH* Report highlights the progress of the Japanese manufacturing community. The report is interesting because it not only offers a view of the current Japanese production philosophy, but also describes developments in the components making up that production capability. The components included in that technology assessment are:
-
manipulators and actuators
-
precision mechanisms
-
machine vision system
-
non vision sensor systems
-
artificial intelligence
-
software for mechatronics
-
flexible manufacturing systems
-
