Disturbance

Disturbance means anything which was not planned and influences the quality index of the system of the manufacturing process. Disturbances do not necessarily have an adverse influence on the quality index. Sometimes disturbances make it possible to obtain better results than planned, e.g. a smaller than planned diameters of the shaft before turning allows an increase of feed and thus an increase in the output of machining.

Adaptive control of manufacturing processes is the control of a manufacturing process, which attempts, in spite of disturbances, either to keep the chosen features of the process (or features of the product) in the prescribed range or to obtain the highest quality index possible in the existing situation.
