Sensory and adaptive access of manufacturing equipment (ME) is the key of physical resources virtualization in cloud manufacturing (CM). Three aspects including status sensory of ME, Internet of Things (IoT) and adaptive access of CM service platform were elaborated to analyze the characteristics and to investigate the related technologies. The importance of fiber Bragg grating sensing technology for ME sensory was analyzed. The heterogeneous fusion system and fusion access method as well as device of equipment resources were discussed. The access of ME resources for CM service platform was investigated based on three aspects including information fusion, description and retrieval and service release. Taking the realization of intelligent sensory and adaptive access for typical ME resources as an example, the prototype system, the sensory of ME resources and the realization of IoT of ME resources as well as the adaptive access method for CM service platform were expounded.
