Abstract: A manufacturing control system for an additive, subtractive, or hybrid machining system implements a morphic manufacturing approach that integrates in situ inspection and related decision-making into the manufacturing process. After execution of a machining or deposition operation, the system performs a sensor scan to collect sensor measurement data for the resulting part while the part remains in the manufacturing work cell. The measurement data is compared with an as-designed digital model of the part to determine whether further machining or deposition is necessary to bring the finished part into tolerance with the model. If necessary, the system performs another additive and/or subtractive manufacturing operation on the part based on analysis of the measurement data to bring the part into tolerance. The measured inspection data can be stored in association with each manufactured part for auditing purposes or for creation of part-specific digital twins.

Abstract: A manufacturing control system for an additive, subtractive, or hybrid machining system implements in situ part inspection to collect as-built metrology data for a manufactured part while the part remains in the work envelop, and uses the resulting measured inspection data to generate an as-built digital twin that accurately models the finished part. After execution of a subtractive and/or additive tooling operation, the system performs a sensor scan to collect three-dimensional imaging measurement data for the resulting manufactured part while the part remains in the work cell. The measurement data is then integrated with as-designed part metadata for the idealized part to yield the as-built digital twin. Since metrology measurements are integrated into the manufacturing process, customized as-built digital twins can be generated for each manufactured part without requiring manual inspections to be performed on each part.

Abstract: An information handling system may include a host system processor and a storage resource communicatively coupled to the host system processor. The storage resource may be configured to, responsive to receiving a command from the host system processor relating an address range of the storage resource, create an entry in a drive status table stored in a persistent storage area of the storage resource, the entry setting forth information indicative of the address and a completion status of the command and update a status of the address range in the drive status table as steps of the command are completed by the storage resource, such that, if a drive event occurs preventing full completion of the command, the host system processor may access the drive status table to determine a status of the command, and take a remedial action based on the status of the command.

Abstract: A process control valve manufactured using an aluminum alloy and used to maintain a supply side pressure and a delivery side pressure in a fluid supply line. The control valve includes a pneumatic actuator having a first pressure chamber and a second pressure chamber used to operate the process control valve, a delivery side sensor for determining a delivery side pressure, and a hardcoat anodized layer on aluminum alloy surfaces to create a barrier and reduce electrolysis and aluminum corrosion, The hardcoat anodized layer penetrates the aluminum alloy surfaces. Preferably, the hardcoat anodized layer has a thickness in the range of 0.0007 inch to 0.0012 inch, Most preferably, the hardcoat anodized layer has a thickness of about 0.001 inch. The hardcoat anodized layer penetrates the aluminum alloy surfaces to a depth in the range of 0.0007 inch to 0.0012 inch, most preferably to a depth of 0.001 inch.

Abstract: A method of distributed management of recovery of multi-controller NVMe drives includes detecting a path failure of a PCIe path from a first storage node to a first controller on the multi-controller NVMe drive, and initially attempting to correct the path failure using a controller level reset. If the controller level reset is unsuccessful, an alternative path to the controller is sought, and if that is unsuccessful a drive level reset operation is coordinated by all storage nodes with controllers executing on the NVMe drive. To coordinate reset of the NVMe drive, one storage node is elected master. Each node (both slave and master) initiates quiescing of IO operations on its respective controller, and after quiescing has completed, initiates shutdown of its respective controller. Once all controllers are shut down, the master initiates reset of the NVMe drive. Timeouts are used to constrain completion of the quiescing and shutdown operations.

Abstract: Systems, apparatuses and methods are described for integrating an electronic metrology sensor with precision production equipment such as computer numerically controlled (CNC) machines. For example, a laser distance measuring sensor is used. Measurements are taken at a relatively high sample rate and converted into a format compatible with other data generated or accepted by the CNC machine. Measurements from the sensor are synchronized with the position of the arm of the machine such as through the use of offsets. Processing yields a detailed and highly accurate three-dimensional map of a workpiece in the machine. Applicable metrology instruments include other near continuously reading non-destructive characterization instruments such as contact and non-contact dimensional, eddy current, ultra-sound, and X-Ray Fluorescence (XRF) sensors.
