Abstract: In order to quickly find the potential cooperative manufactures for virtual enterprise, a new search method for cooperative enterprises based on task features, description of enterprises’ capability and automatic matching was proposed. Firstly, a feature-based model for machining task features and enterprise capability features was presented. The machining task was divided into sub-tasks by features. Then, all potential enterprises, which could finish a sub-task or the whole task, were searched from the collaborative network based on the manufacturing resource constraint. Secondly, to deal with the diversity of collaborative task, the search model and algorithm oriented to single machining task and multi-tasks were studied in particular. Finally, a collaborative manufacturing network was introduced. Functions and operation examples of the enterprise search module under the collaborative network environment were presented to illustrate the proposed method.

Key words: virtual enterprise, collaborative task, partner search, manufacturing resource allocation
