Manufacturing resource sharing and collaboration is the core point of manufacturing grid (MG). In order to realize the resource sharing and collaboration among the heterogeneous and distributed manufacturing resources, a WSRF (Web service resource framework)-based resource management system framework of manufacturing grid, and manufacturing resource encapsulation method are presented in this research. Manufacturing resources are encapsulated into WS-Resource structural entity entitled MG-Resources by stateful manufacturing resource encapsulation, Web service encapsulation and interfaces construction, which explains the description, encapsulation, publication and invocation of MG-Resources. The encapsulation process shields complexity and diversities of manufacturing resources, thus implements the heterogeneous manufacturing resource sharing and collaboration in MG effectively.
