CICER: Generation of databases and implementation of self-learning methodology on an industrial scale

CICER: Smart control of the final size on ceramic tiles. Controlling the production process of ceramic tiles is an arduous task. Due to the physical particularities of the elements involved in the manufacture, each manufactured piece has its own characteristics. The process involve external non-controllable physical factors such as atmospheric pressure and humidity, and others controllable as the pressure that is used in the hydraulic press or the moisture that is injected into the raw material in the filling process. The final size of each piece produced will depend on all these factors, so it is necessary to develop a process that is capable of measuring at each production step the parameters of each piece and change controllable factors to obtain the desired final size. A very important part to carry out the process control in the production environment is the availability of a tracking system, which allows uniquely identifying each piece that enters and leaves the manufacturing system, including all of its manufacturing information at each production stage. CICER is a project funded by by the Valencian Institute of Business Competitiveness (IVACE) and European Union through the European Regional Development Fund (ERDF). This document (Deliverable E5.1. Task 5.1 of the project package 5. 2015) describes the database used by the tools developed for the real-time process control system proposed in the project.CICER.
