A plug-and-produce industrial adapter for smart manufacturing and its application

Abstract

The invention discloses an intelligent manufacturing-oriented plug-and-play industrial adapter and its application. The industrial adapter includes: an AutomationML model describing all internal data element sets of physical resources, a model conversion module, and an OPC UA for communicating with a workshop private cloud Server, Web Server service module and communication protocol mapping module; the model conversion module converts the AutomationML model into an OPC UA information model and generates an OPC UA server; the communication protocol mapping module reads the physical resource information defined in the AutomationML model, configures the mapping table, Unify the data of the underlying heterogeneous physical resources to the OPC UA information model and use the OPC UA protocol for transmission; the Web Server service module registers the corresponding resource information in the service registration module of the workshop private cloud, and uses the Web Service interface to transfer the resource model. Synchronized to the workshop private cloud model warehouse. The invention can be compatible with physical resources from different manufacturers in the manufacturing environment, so as to realize the interconnection and information sharing of heterogeneous resources, and has the capability of plug and production.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of industrial adapters, in particular to an intelligent manufacturing-oriented plug-and-produce industrial adapter and its application. Background technique [0002] As users' demand for products tends to be more diversified and personalized, traditional manufacturing enterprises need to change their production mode from traditional mass production to small-batch and multi-variety production in order to maintain their advantages in the competition. Since the manufacturing process of personalized products involves different processes on different equipment, the switching of different product manufacturing processes will inevitably lead to the redesign and organization of production equipment and workstations to meet the variable process requirements. However, existing in the current production environment It is difficult to coordinate and unify multiple heterogeneous resources, which leads to the inability to...

Since the manufacturing process of personalized products involves different processes on different equipment, the switching of different product manufacturing processes will inevitably lead to the redesign and organization of production equipment and workstations to meet the variable process requirements. However, existing in the current production environment It is difficult to coordinate and unify multiple heterogeneous resources, which leads to the inability to share data information between resources, the process of reconfiguration of the production line causes a lot of time and cost in the design and redesign stages, and the production process cannot be self-organized and self-adapted. The physical resources of different manufacturers realize the interconnection and information sharing of heterogeneous resources, which cannot give plug and production capabilities
