document: Manufacturing data analysis of machine tool errors within a contemporary small manufacturing enterprise The main focus of the paper is directed at the determination of manufacturing errors within the contemporary smaller manufacturing enterprise sector . The manufacturing error diagnosis is achieved through the manufacturing data analysis of the results obtained from the inspection of the component on a co-ordinate measuring machine . This manufacturing data analysis activity adopts a feature-based approach and is conducted through the application of a forward chaining expert system , called the product data analysis distributed diagnostic expert system , which forms part of a larger prototype feedback system entitled the production data analysis framework . The paper introduces the manufacturing error categorisations that are associated with milling type operations , knowledge acquisition and representation , conceptual structure and operating procedure of the prototype manufacturing data analysis facility . The paper concludes with a brief evaluation of the logic employed through the simulation of manufacturing error scenarios . This prototype manufacturing data analysis expert system provides a valuable aid for the rapid diagnosis and elimination of manufacturing errors on a 3-axis vertical machining centre in an environment where operator expertise is limited
