Abstract

Prefabricated Off-site Fit-out (POF) plays a critical but often overlooked role in Modular Prefabricated Construction (MPC). Due to fragmented and asymmetric information, inconsistent production and intralogistics operations, and production uncertainty, the POF faces significant synchronization challenges. To address these challenges, this paper proposes the Graduation Intelligent Manufacturing System (GiMS), inspired by the university graduation ceremonies. GiMS creates a smart environment that supports POF real-time decision-making under uncertainties. A ticket-based synchronization mechanism is used to coordinate production and intralogistics operations dynamically. Numerical analysis verified that GiMS significantly improves synchronization performance and reduces earliness and tardiness across various uncertainty scenarios. The experiment results confirmed its effectiveness in optimizing POF processes. This paper presents a synchronization framework explicitly designed for POF, providing practical insights for applying smart manufacturing solutions in modular construction environments.

预制非现场装配与毕业智能制造系统同步

预制非现场装配（POF）在模块化预制结构（MPC）中起着至关重要但往往被忽视的作用。由于信息的碎片化和不对称、生产和内部物流操作的不一致性以及生产的不确定性，POF面临着重大的同步挑战。针对这些挑战，本文以高校毕业典礼为灵感，提出了毕业智能制造系统（GiMS）。GiMS创建了一个智能环境，支持POF在不确定情况下的实时决策。采用基于票证的同步机制，动态协调生产和内部物流操作。数值分析验证了GiMS显著提高了同步性能，并减少了各种不确定性场景下的早、迟现象。实验结果证实了该方法在POF工艺优化中的有效性。本文提出了一个明确为POF设计的同步框架，为在模块化建筑环境中应用智能制造解决方案提供了实践见解。
