Furthermore, there is no mechanism for the developer D to know some specific characteristics of the potential target manufacturing environment ME, such as data points or additional sensor devices
In addition, industrial applications do not know each other, so it is difficult for independent developers to gradually build complex functions based on other applications

Method and platform for deployment of an industrial application on an edge computing device of a machine tool A deployment platform for deployment of an industrial application on an edge computing device, ECD, connected to the controller of a machine tool, MT, said deployment platform comprising a model management component, MMC, adapted to instantiate a generic machine tool model, GMTM, stored ina memory to provide a machine instance model, MIM, of the respective machine tool, MT, on the basis of a machine tool da-ta report, MTDR, received by the model management component, MMC, from the edge computing device, ECD, of the respective machine tool, MT, and further adapted to convert generic data requirements, gR, of a generic industrial application into machine tool specific requirements,mtsR, using the machine instance model, MIM, of the respective machine tool, MT, wherein an instantiated industrial application for the machine tool, MT, is provided by instantiating the generic in- dustrial application by extending its configuration data with machine tool specific requirements, mtsR, or by translating requirements at runtime wherein the instantiated industrial application is deployed by the model management component, MMC, of the deployment platform on the edge computing device, ECD, of the respective machine tool, MT.
Description
technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a method and platform for deploying industrial applications on edge computing devices connected to controllers of machine tools within a manufacturing facility. Background technique [0002] With the advent of cloud computing, industrial assets (such as motors, robots, industrial equipment, automation equipment) within manufacturing facilities can be connected to cloud platforms via agents such as IoT gateways. Digitalization and related technological developments such as the Internet of Things, cloud computing and artificial intelligence can be used in the manufacturing environment, leading to the emergence of smart factories, where processes can be optimized with the help of data-driven decisions. In many cases, decisions must be made close to the source of the data to improve response times, address privacy concerns, and / or process large volumes of data. Therefore, edge computing devices are collocated with physical...
