Abstract:
The sheet metalworking industries possess minimal knowledge in the area of sustainability despite having served as sub-contractors to various industrial sectors. This also highlights that suitable indicators for measuring the sustainability performance of sheet metalworking operations are poorly addressed. As sustainability assessment is regarded as a vital part of sustainable development, this paper has been aimed at establishing a general framework for sustainability assessment of sheet metalworking processes. The main attention was paid to two important processes—the cutting operations with a CNC turret punch press machine and sheet metal bending operations with CNC press brake machine. Stepwise guidelines to implement the proposed framework in sheet metalworking industries are consequently presented. Besides, this study contributes to developing an applicable sustainability indicator set for assessing such manufacturing processes. It makes a valuable contribution to advancing the narrow body of knowledge on the under-researched scope.

Abstract:
Introduction. The profession of “machine operator in metalworking”, one of the most common professions in various industries, characterized by a large volume of abrasive operations, accompanied by dust formation, which creates a potential for the occurrence of diseases of the visual organ.The aim of the study is to provide a hygienic assessment of working conditions and occupational risk of visual organ pathology in metalworking machine operators.Materials and methods. Observation groups — machine operators for metalworking of two training groups (experience up to 5 years, experience of 6–20 years). Two comparison groups (administrative and technical personnel of the enterprise) are formed according to the same age-experience principle.Results. The working conditions of machine operators were classified as class 3.2. taking into account the severity and intensity of the work process and the noise level (80 dBA) in the workplace. Nitrogen oxide, carbon monoxide, and manganese were registered in the air of the working area in concentrations below the permissible concentration (PC), and the aerosol dihydroxide was registered above the PC in 25.8% of cases. In the main working groups, diseases of the anterior segment of the eye were more often registered, among which dry eye syndrome (DYS) prevailed (94.1%), chronic blepharoconjunctivitis (79.9%), persistent corneal opacification (21.7%). There was an increase in the prevalence of detected diseases with an increase in work experience (p≤0.05). In machine operators, the frequency of inhibition of lacrimal formation and decreased stability of the tear film was recorded significantly more often, with increasing work experience, the degree of violation of lacrimal formation and stability of the tear film increased. The chances of detecting pathology of the anterior segment of the eye in machine operators are 5.9 and 3.5 times higher than in the comparison group. There are different forces of connection, increasing with the increase of work experience in the profession, between the working conditions of machine operators and the occurrence of SHG (relatively strong), with chronic blepharoconjunctivitis and persistent corneal opacity (medium strength), which suggests the professional conditionality of this pathology.Conclusions. The results obtained suggest that the pathology of the anterior segment of the eye is professionally conditioned in metalworking machine operators and necessitate the introduction of preventive measures aimed at protecting the visual organ.

Abstract:
AbstractWater based metalworking fluids (MWFs) commonly used for cooling and lubrication during machining are utilised in combination with cutting tools, work materials, fixtures and machine tools. However, they are an often overlooked component of the overall machining process, despite the fact that in some reported cases MWF costs were twice that of tooling costs. During its life cycle in a machine tool, the MWF is exposed to changes due to a range of factors which impact its quality and longevity. The key process variables (KPVs) reviewed in this study are MWF concentration, hydraulic (tramp) oil, solid particulates, water quality, MWF pH and microbial contamination. The aim of the present work is to highlight these KPVs which impact machining quality and health and safety, and to present industrially applicable measurement, monitoring and control (MMC) methods and techniques. This review is supported by a machining case study which demonstrates the impact of a single KPV—hydraulic (tramp) oil on MWF quality and machining output, and the need for applying MMC methods. Continuous hydraulic (tramp) oil contamination into the cutting fluid can cause tool life and wear to vary by 70%. A novel quantification methodology with gas chromatography was developed in this study to quantitatively measure hydraulic (tramp) oil contamination present within MWF and verified through experiments. The study overall highlights the need to apply a strict maintenance programme to increase the MWF lifetime and maintain performance for improved production, experimental process control and operator health and safety.

Abstract:
Difficulties in the grinding of Ti-6Al-4V originate from the three basic properties: poor thermal conductivity, high chemical reactivity and low volume specific heat of the material. Under severe grinding conditions, all these factors together lead to the accelerated wheel loading and redeposition of chips over the work surface. Redeposition and wheel loading have a significant effect on the surface finish, grinding forces, power consumption and wheel life. In this study, water-based Al2O3 nanofluid as metalworking fluid is applied during the surface grinding of Ti-6Al-4V under minimum quantity lubrication mode after dressing the wheel with different dressing overlap ratios. The severity of the redeposition over the work surface was observed by measuring various surface profiles taken perpendicular to the grinding direction at several locations on the ground surface. The nanofluid application was able to prevent redeposition over work surface that became evident from the measured surface finish parameters that results along the grinding direction. Coefficient of friction was estimated On-Machine using the measured forces for different wheel work speed ratios, depth of cut and dressing overlap ratios. The results showed the effectiveness of nanofluid in reducing friction at high material removal rate (i.e. high depth of cut and high speed ratio) conditions when compared to the dry environment. From the measured forces variation with respect to the number of passes, it became evident that, nanofluid application delayed the frequency of wheel loading and grit fracturing cycle, which leads to the increase in the wheel life.

Abstract:
The purpose of the article is to investigate the peculiarities of the modernization of the South-East region of Ukraine in the latter half of the 19th and at the beginning of the 20th century as well as to specify the contribution of entrepreneurs in the formation of the production industry. Methods of research: analysis and synthesis of available information, logical-analytical, problematic-chronological, system-structural methods. The principles of historism, objectivity and consistency, which were the basis of the indicated research methods, made it possible to consider the essence of processes and phenomena, to keep track both of the manifestations of general patterns in the socioeconomic processes in the development of the South-East region of Ukraine and their specific character under the influence of entrepreneurial activity, and also to draw certain conclusions. Key findings: the contribution of entrepreneurs of the South-East Ukraine, which became an important factor in the acceleration of socioeconomic modernization during 1861–1914, is highlighted in the article. Heavy industry became the basis for the modernization in the context of reforms in the latter half of the 19th century, namely production industries related to the extraction of minerals and their processing. During this period, three powerful industrial centers formed: Donetsk coal and metal, Kryvyi Rih ironstone and Nikopol manganese. An important feature of the entrepreneurship development in the South-East region of Ukraine in 1861–1914 was the representation of all population strata: peasants, Cossacks, townsmen, intellectuals, merchants, nobles and foreign capital. They acted as private businessmen and co-owners of collective enterprises. The most common organizational form of entrepreneurship in this period were joint-stock companies, the role and number of which was constantly growing. Conclusions. At the beginning of the 20th century, the Donetsk and Krivyi Rih region became a powerful center of heavy industry (coal, metallurgy, metalworking, machine-building, and chemical). The result of entrepreneurial activity was an increase in production volumes, profitability, the creation of a large number of jobs, the improvement of organization and production technology. Practical value: is determined by the emphasis of the researchers on the need to comprehend the phenomenon of entrepreneurship, its historical lessons, taking into account the powerful factors of this phenomenon and its influence on the contemporary and future civilization development of Ukraine; it is recommended to be used by authors for writing articles, manuals and for development of special courses. Scientific novelty: consists in formulating and studying a relevant topic, which has not received a comprehensive study in historical science. The independent role of entrepreneurship in the capitalist economy at the regional level is shown for the first time; it was proved that the South-East region of Ukraine was the one where the preconditions for the development of private initiative were formed, and also the spread of market relations and entrepreneurship took place; the participation of entrepreneurs in economic modernization as well as the most profitable branches in the region are characterized. Originality: the generalization of experience, practices of profit-making economy of the entrepreneurial strata of the region is used. Type of article: descriptive.

Abstract:
This thesis reports on a case survey of 15 UK metalworking companies and their experience of implementing an integrating technology - CAD/CAM. The thesis places this process of implementation in the organisational context of these companies by examining the ways in which the engineering/manufacturing interface is coordinated. This interface is important, because it is also critical to the effective implementation of such techniques as total quality management and simultaneous engineering. In order to develop an incisive analysis of these companies, a contingency approach to organisational analysis is developed around the idea of flows of information and materials and their interaction with the structure of the organisation in a process of structuration. This analysis is placed in the strategic context of the organisations' relationships to their environment through the notion of a production strategy. Models of the process of implementation are then reviewed, and a recursive model of implementation as organisational changing is developed which emphasises the processes of organisational learning. The management of the engineering design process has been little examined, in comparison to the management of manufacturing, and research and development. This thesis develops an analysis of the management of the entire production process from the conception of the product right through to its delivery to the customer in these 15 firms. It then goes on to examine the recent organisational changes in the engineering and manufacturing functions before examining the implementation process in detail. Finally, the basis of organisational integration from both a technological and organisational perspective is analysed, which provides the basis for some more general propositions on the development of production management over the next decade.

Abstract:
La formation des travailleurs présente, à l’intersection des politiques publiques et de l’action privée, un objet potentiellement conflictuel. Le développement d’une offre différenciée s’est appuyé sur la détermination d’objectifs négociés. Les modalités de la préparation au travail divergent selon les branches professionnelles et les conceptions patronales des savoirs nécessaires à la production industrielle à à son organisation. L’offre publique et l’offre privée se sont tantôt opposées, tantôt complétées afin de répondre à l’ensemble des besoins en compétences. Le cas des industries métallurgiques et mécaniques de la région de Saint-Étienne, permet d’étudier les motivations et rapports de forces à l’œuvre. Depuis le Second Empire, l’offre de formation ne cesse de se développer. La pérennité de ces réalisations se révèle au départ fragile, par sa dépendance à l’initiative municipale ou à l’action collective privée. L’œuvre scolaire de la Troisième République modifie la donne. Le développement à partir de 1879 d’une offre municipale d’enseignement technique suscite la réaction du clan clérical, soutenu par les bourgeoisies catholiques locales. L’évolution de ces deux offres s’explique par une différence importante dans les objectifs de ces formations scolaires, entre, d’une part, savoirs scientifiques et techniques et, d’autre part, objectifs moraux et hiérarchiques. À travers les différentes stratégies patronales à l’œuvre, entre externalisation et intégration de la fonction formation, la préparation d’une élite ouvrière tend à placer la question de l’autorité au cœur du dispositif. Avec le début du XXe siècle, l’institutionnalisation des cours professionnels comme support de l’apprentissage ouvrier s’inscrit dans la continuité de la scolarisation des décennies précédentes. La montée de la conflictualité ouvrière, l’évolution des techniques de production et de leur organisation donnent une importance nouvelle aux compétences scientifiques et techniques. Le patronat, soucieux de ses prérogatives dans le domaine des relations sociales, tente de limiter l’intervention de l’État. La taxe d’apprentissage est un exemple remarquable. L’offre de formation ouvrière, publique comme privée, est confortée dans ses fonctions par le patronat métallurgique. Les innovations demeurent faibles jusqu’au développement difficile des formations professionnelles accélérées à la fin des années 1930. La Seconde Guerre mondiale confirme l’intérêt des employeurs pour des filières de formation moins engoncées dans les normes de l’Éducation nationale. L’étatisation de l’apprentissage ouvrier traduit enfin, après la Libération, le ralliement du patronat métallurgique à la forme scolaire
Vocational education and training presented a potentially conflicting object crossing the lines of public policies and private action. The development of a differentiated supply was based on the negociated determination of skills. The modalities of VET diverged according to professional branches. They followed different conceptions, related to the knowledge required by the industrial production and organization. Public and private VET supplies were sometimes opposed, sometimes supplemented in order to meet all needs. The case of metallurgical, metalworking and machine-building industries of the region of Saint-Étienne allows us to study the motivations and the balance of forces. Since the Second Empire, the supply for vocational training growed. The sustainability of these achievements was initially fragile. They depended on municipal initiative or private organization. The vocational schools founded during the early times of the Third Republic changed the outcome. The development of a municipal supply aroused the reaction of the clerical side, supported by local catholic bourgeoisies. The evolution of these paths was due to a significant difference in the objectives of theses courses. On one hand, VET was considered as a mean for the diffusion and scientific and technical knowledge. On the other hand, it was used as a way to diffuse moral and hierarchical principles. Through the various strategies at work, from outsourcing to integration, the training of a workers elite tended to place the question of authority at the heart of VET organization. With the beginning of the twentieth century, the initiated schooling process drove to the institutionalization of vocational courses, as a support for apprenticeship. The rise of workers’ conflictuality, the evolution of production et organization renewed the role to scientific and technical skills. Employers, willing to reinforce their leadership in the field of industrial relations, tried to limit the intervention of the state within VET. The apprenticeship levy was a remarkable example of such a resistance. The supply of workers training, both public and private, was reinforced in its functions by the metalworking employers. Institutional innovations remained weak until the tough developpement of accelerated vocational training in the late 1930s. The Second World War confirmed the interest of metalworking employers for a traning organization less squeezed into the standards of the ministry of National Education. Finally, after the Libération, the stateization of workers apprenticeship brought about the rallying of businesses to the schooling form

Abstract:
In this thesis I argue that rural industry is a critical element in the development of poor African countries, and that its virtue has been recognised by a growing number of interventions in recent years. Particular benefits of rural industrialisation are the support of agriculture, improved availability of consumer items and repair services within the rural community, the generation of rural income and a contribution to the development of the national technology base. However, in spite of the attention this sector has received, there has so far been little evidence of rural industry thriving. The general failure of rural industry to develop indicates that either it is inherently unviable in a modern context or that the interventions concerned with it have been recurrently faulty. I contend that, while the degree to which rural industry may thrive depends upon the level of formal industrial activity in the country, it is essentially viable but that where interventions have taken place they have usually been inappropriate. The bulk of this thesis therefore examines what interventions would be appropriate to encourage this sector. I show that two conditions are essential. Firstly that interventions must take as their point of departure the existing context and practice of rural artisans, for example, training should take place within their normal working environment, depending only upon the resources to which they normally have access or to which they gain access by means of the training. Secondly that the target group for any intervention must have a significant degree of control over it. Innovation is argued to be a key determinant of sustainability. The significance of confidence and its contribution to innovation are established, identifying the crucial nature of innovation itself within the artisanal context. Rural manufacturing industry is unlikely to thrive unless conditioning and circumstances encourage artisanal practitioners to innovate. I examine the factors that encourage or inhibit innovation, particularly attitudes towards existing practices and the perceptions of external agents. As well as examining in depth specific factors such as innovation and the control of interventions, the thesis reviews all the resources required by rural industry in order to thrive and demonstrates the importance of a balance between them. However it is argued that skill development is the field in which external agencies can most usefully assist informal sector, rural industry and that the results of interventions must be capable of autonomous propagation if they are to have any significance.

Abstract:
Les éléments trace métalliques (ETM) sont des polluants qui sont sources de préoccupations majeures à cause de leurs toxicités et de leurs propriétés cumulatives. Certains d’eux peuvent être cancérogènes. La métropole de Sfax, située au sud de la Tunisie, a été touchée par des rejets et émissions d’ETM depuis des décennies. Plusieurs études ont confirmé que la pollution métallique est principalement d’origine anthropique, liée en particulier aux activités industrielles. Cela présente un risque sur la santé des habitants, particulièrement pour ceux qui sont également exposés par leur métier dans des procédés industriels. L’objectif de cette étude est d’évaluer les risques sanitaires associés à l’exposition professionnelle dans les industries qui manipulent des ETM dans leurs processus de production, en suivant l’approche de l’évaluation des risques sanitaires. Dans ce but, cinq entreprises qui utilisent des métaux comme matière première pour produire une variété de produits métalliques, ont accepté d’adhérer à notre étude. Les métaux qui étaient explorés sont Al, Cr, Ni, Cu, Zn and Pb. Des modèles mathématiques de prédiction des expositions professionnelles aux agents chimiques ont été utilisés pour estimer les concentrations des ETM dans l’air intérieur pour 15 postes différents. Des prélèvements atmosphériques ont été effectués afin de comparer les concentrations prédites à celles mesurées, en utilisant des prélèvements individuels ou sur postes fixes. Finalement, des prélèvements urinaires ont été collectés chez 61 travailleurs afin d’évaluer le lien entre l’excrétion des ETM et les niveaux atmosphériques. Globalement, les estimations des concentrations atmosphériques avaient une bonne concordance avec les valeurs mesurées sur l’ensemble des postes de travail. Des meilleures prédictions ont été trouvées pour certaines activités, en particulier pour des processus de découpage des tôles et de soudures. Les valeurs qui correspondent au 90ème percentile de la distribution de l’exposition ont été utilisées pour le calcul du « interaction-based hazard index HIint » pour évaluer les risques associés aux mélanges d’ETM. Un excès de risque total de cancer a été aussi calculé. Les résultats ont montré des expositions élevées qui peuvent provoquer des pathologies respiratoires, avec un HIint allant jusqu’à 93,6. Les niveaux les plus élevés sont attribués à la soudure à l'arc à l'électrode enrobée et au débitage et cisaillage des tôles. Ces risques augmentent à cause de l’effet synergique qui existe entre Cr, Ni et Cu. Des risques élevés de cancer du poumon et du rein ont été encore démontrés (risque total vie entière de cancer pour les ouvriers exposés : 3.7×10-4). Ce travail montre que les modèles mathématiques peuvent prédire correctement les niveaux d’exposition des ETM dans l’air intérieur pour plusieurs processus de la métallurgie. Ce résultat est intéressant pour aider les différents acteurs pour piloter de manière efficiente les systèmes de surveillance et la réduction des expositions dans ce secteur économique. Des progrès en matière d’hygiène industrielle sont nécessaires dans ce secteur industriel pour minimiser le risque sanitaire élevé auquel sont actuellement exposés les travailleurs concernés
Trace metallic elements (TMEs) are pollutants of great concern even in trace amounts because of their toxicity and cumulative property. Some of them can be carcinogenic. The Sfax metropolis, located in the southern region of Tunisia, has been affected by releases of TMEs for decades. Several studies confirmed that this pollution is predominantly originated from anthropogenic sources, mainly from industrial activities. It represents a threat to the health of residents, particularly for those also exposed during occupational activities in industrial processes. The present study aims to assess health risks associated with occupational exposure in industries handling TMEs in their production processes, following the human health risk assessment approach. To this end, five companies using raw material containing TMEs to produce a variety of metallic products accepted to participate to the study. The metals that were investigated are Al, Cr, Ni, Cu, Zn and Pb. Mathematical models for estimating occupational exposure to chemicals were used to predict indoor air TME exposure levels in 15 different job tasks. Air monitoring was conducted in order to compare the predicted workplace air concentrations versus the direct measured ones, using both workplace-fixed monitors and personal samplers. And finally, urine samples were collected from 61 workers to assess whether TMEs excretion correlate with job exposure levels. Globally, the predicted air estimates relate well with measured concentrations over the whole set of job tasks. Better predictions were found for certain activities, in particular for steel cutting and welding processes. The values that correspond to the 90th percentile of the exposure distribution were then used in the interaction-based hazard index HIint to assess health risks associated with the mixtures of TMEs. Total cancer risk was also investigated. Results showed high exposures for metals that may elicit respiratory conditions, with a HIint reaching 93.6, the highest levels being for the shielded metal arc welding and metal shearing and slitting tasks. The risk is enhanced by a synergetic effect between Cr, Ni and Cu. High risks of lung and kidney cancers were demonstrated (the predicted life-long total cancer risk for exposed workers is 3.7×10-4). This work shows that mathematical models can be accurate in predicting TME airborne exposure levels for several processes in the metallurgic industry, a result that is of interest to help the different stakeholders to monitor efficiently exposure surveillance and abatement. Progress in industrial hygiene is needed in this industrial sector to reduce the high level of health risks currently experienced by the metalworking workers

Abstract:
The process industries span multiple industrial sectors and constitute a substantial part of the entire manufacturing industry. Since companies belonging to this family of industries are often very asset intensive, their ability to respond to changes is often limited in the short term. The adaptation of the capabilities of existing processes, and conversely finding products and market segments to match the production system capabilities, are an important part of product- and market development activities in the process industry. The importance to companies in the process industry of having a well-articulated manufacturing strategy congruent with the business strategy is second to none. However, to facilitate manufacturing strategy developments, it is essential to start with an improved characterization and understanding of the material transformation system. To that end an extensive set of variables was developed and related measures and scales were defined. The resulting configuration model, focusing on company generic process capabilities in the process industries, is to be regarded as a conceptual taxonomy and as a proposition available for further testing. The usability of the model was subsequently assessed using “mini-cases” in the forestry industry, where the respondents confirmed that the company’s overall strategy could benefit from this kind of platform as a possible avenue to follow. The model was deployed as an instrument in the profiling of company material transformation systems to facilitate the further development of companies' functional and business strategies. The use of company-generic production capabilities was studied in three case companies representing the mineral, food and steel industries. The model was found by the respondents to be usable as a knowledge platform to develop production strategies. In the final analysis of the research results, a new concept emerged called “production capability configuration": A process-industrial company’s alignment of its generic production capabilities in the areas of raw materials, process technology and products to improve the consistency among the variable elements that define operations and improve the congruence between operations and its environment. From the perspective of value creation and capture, firms must be able to manufacture products in a competitive cost structure within the framework of a proper business model. By using the configuration model, the relationship between manufacturing and innovation activities has been studied in the previously mentioned three case studies. In many cases the gap in capability appears as a limitation in the production system, requiring development efforts and sometimes investments to overcome. This is illustrated with two examples from the steel industry, where development efforts of the production system capabilities are initiated to better match the market demands. One example is the increase the volume- and product flexibility of an existing stainless steel melt shop, resulting in a proposed oblong Argon Oxygen Decarburisation (AOD) converter configuration that was subsequently verified using water modelling. The second example is from a carbon steel mill, where the target was to increase the raw material- and volume flexibility of another melt shop, by modifying the capabilities of the Electric Arc Furnace (EAF). Enabling EAF technologies are further described and evaluated using operational data and engineering type of estimates.

Abstract:
Inter-organizational linkages, often referred to as network relationships, are considered to be of increasing importance for the competitive performance of firms, industries and nations. Two hypotheses about the conditions for the emergence of network relationships are derived from the transaction cost approach and discussed in view of two case studies relying on a medium sized machine-tool firm and a medium sized cement firm in Austria. The paper clearly illustrates the necessity to go beyond the transaction cost approach and to take into account factors such as strategic orientation, management skills and organizational issues.

Abstract:
Industrial demand has changed and present increasingly demanding requirements. Companies need to evolve and innovate to be able to go along and fulfill its customers requirements. Currently, major players have the capacity, resources and money, to install the most innovate and expensive machines, tools and devices on its shop-floor. SMEs on its side, face several challenges to manage its limited resources. SME aims to maximize the usage of the available resources to continue its activity and if possible to grow. The usage of low-cost IoT devices allow companies to monitor the usage of its resources and the quality of its products without the need to made a huge investment that wouldn’t be affordable for them. The results presented were a result of the C2NET Project that was designed to comprehensively cover the entire supply chain considering all stages of manufacturing, distribution and sales to supply a product to market. The results achieved were able to fulfill specific needs of the industrial partners of the project, and were validated by 6 companies from Automative, DermoCosmetics, Metalworking and OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) Industries from Spain, France, Portugal and Finland.[1] A Metalworking SME was used as an use case due to its complexity and diversity, although most of the achievements can be replicated in other industries, even the more traditional ones.

Abstract:
Welding is one of the most important joining techniques used in the metalworking industries. In order to exploit efficiency potentials to a maximum possible extent, robot systems are adopted to automate the welding process whenever possible. This has become standard for high volume manufacturers like the automotive industry where thousands or millions of products are manufactured in the same or a very similar way. There is, however, a large obstacle for using automated welding robots in industries with highly individualized products: The programming effort for robot systems very often exceeds the manual welding times due to small lot sizes. Therefore this paper proposes an approach to automatically derive welding programs. The building blocks of this technique are an automatic identification of feasible candidate weld joints from a CAD model, a knowledge base and a weld program compiler. After verification of these joints by a design engineer the machine instructions for the robot system have to be derived. Therefore the proposed approach defines the necessary structures of a Welding Expert Knowledge Base (WKB) where the relevant knowledge of a welding engineer designer is modeled in terms of rules of fuzzy rule sets. On top of the WKB we propose a weld program compiler which automatically identifies the sequence of weld joints and the necessary number of welding passes, generates optimized tool paths and finally derives appropriate parameter settings.
