[0031] Step S3: Sum the perturbation coefficients of each dimension according to the preset dimension weights to obtain the comprehensive perturbation influence coefficient at the current moment; Step S4: Introduce a time decay function to accumulate the disturbance influence coefficients at historical moments to obtain the effective disturbance influence coefficient; Step S5: Compare the effective disturbance impact coefficient with the preset early warning threshold and emergency threshold to determine the disturbance level of the current production line.
[0032] The formula for calculating the effective disturbance influence coefficient in step S4 is as follows: In the formula, The length of the historical time window. For time offset index, The attenuation coefficient set for the system. The comprehensive disturbance impact coefficient at the current moment. This is the effective disturbance influence coefficient.
[0033] The specific working process of step S5 includes: when If the disturbance level of the current production line is determined to be Level 1, the production line is operating normally and no intervention is required; when At this time, the disturbance level of the current production line is determined to be level two, indicating that there is a slight abnormality in the production line. It is recommended to pay attention and record it. when When the disturbance level of the current production line is determined to be level three, the production line has obvious abnormalities, triggering an early warning and recommending manual intervention; when When the disturbance level of the current production line is determined to be level four, the production line has a serious abnormality, an alarm is triggered and immediate action is required; when When the disturbance level of the current production line is determined to be Level 5, the production line faces the risk of shutdown, triggering the emergency response mechanism.
[0034] The disturbance assessment process also includes trend analysis and preventive control: Calculate the rate of change of the perturbation coefficients in each dimension. ,in, Let be the coefficient of the i-th perturbation type; When the rate of change of the perturbation coefficient in any dimension When the value is greater than A, it is determined that the disturbance in this dimension is showing a worsening trend, and preventive control measures are implemented in advance. When the rate of change of the perturbation coefficient in any dimension When the value is less than B, it is determined that the disturbance in this dimension is showing an improving trend, and control resources are gradually released. Where A>0, B<0, and A and B are preset thresholds.
[0035] The multi-agent collaborative decision-making module is connected to the digital twin virtual-real mapping module and is used to match and execute the corresponding collaborative control strategy according to the disturbance level to generate a production line-wide collaborative control scheme. The aforementioned technical solution aims to transform the complex state of the production line into quantifiable disturbance levels, providing precise input for subsequent collaborative decision-making. This process first collects multi-dimensional operational data across seven categories: equipment operation, production process, logistics flow, quality inspection, order scheduling, energy consumption costs, and environment. Then, it calculates disturbance sub-coefficients for each dimension: the equipment operation disturbance sub-coefficient is evaluated based on the deviation from mean time between failures (MTBF) and overall equipment efficiency; the process disturbance sub-coefficient is quantified by the degree of deviation from tolerances for key parameters such as temperature and pressure, and alarm status; the logistics disturbance sub-coefficient considers deviations in delay time, queue length, and logistics distance; the quality disturbance sub-coefficient considers the overall defect rate, quality characteristic deviations, and rework rate; the order disturbance sub-coefficient assesses the increase in urgent orders, changes in order volume, and delivery delays; the energy consumption cost disturbance sub-coefficient measures unit product energy consumption, cost overruns, and additional penalty costs; and the environmental disturbance sub-coefficient considers environmental factors such as temperature, humidity, dust concentration, and noise levels. Subsequently, the disturbance sub-coefficients are weighted and summed according to preset dimensional weights to obtain the overall disturbance impact coefficient at the current moment. To further improve the accuracy of the assessment, a time decay function is introduced into the process. The disturbance impact coefficients at each moment within the historical time window are accumulated according to an exponential decay law to form the effective disturbance impact coefficient. The calculation formula is as follows: This mechanism enables the system to reflect both the current instantaneous disturbance state and the persistent impact of historical disturbances, avoiding misjudgments caused by instantaneous fluctuations. Finally, the effective disturbance impact coefficient is compared with preset multi-level thresholds to classify five disturbance levels: Level 1 is normal operation requiring no intervention; Level 2 is minor anomaly requiring attention and recording; Level 3 is significant anomaly triggering an early warning and recommending manual intervention; Level 4 is severe anomaly triggering an alarm and requiring immediate handling; and Level 5 is a risk of line stoppage triggering an emergency response mechanism. Furthermore, the process includes trend analysis functionality. By calculating the rate of change of disturbance sub-coefficients in each dimension, preventative control measures are implemented in advance when a disturbance in a certain dimension shows a worsening trend, and control resources are gradually released when it shows an improving trend, thereby achieving dynamic perception, precise quantification, and proactive early warning of the production line status.
[0036] The working process of the multi-agent collaborative decision-making module includes: When the disturbance level is Level 1, execute the normal monitoring strategy, maintain the existing control strategy, and record the operating data. When the disturbance level is level two, a local adjustment strategy is implemented to adjust the parameters of the abnormal local components and strengthen monitoring. When the disturbance level is level three, a dynamic rescheduling strategy is executed to reallocate production tasks and activate standby resources. When the disturbance level is level four, an emergency response strategy is implemented, which involves local line shutdown in the fault area and initiation of emergency dispatch. When the disturbance level is level 5, the disaster recovery strategy is implemented, including a plant-wide emergency shutdown and the activation of the disaster recovery plan.
[0037] The human-computer interaction module is connected to the multi-agent collaborative decision-making module and is used to display the production line operation status and control scheme in real time, and supports remote human intervention and parameter setting.
[0038] In summary, the working principle of this invention is as follows: A multi-source data sensing module constructs a sensing network covering all elements of the production line, collecting multi-dimensional heterogeneous data such as equipment operation, production process, logistics flow, quality inspection, order scheduling, energy consumption costs, and environmental data. The data is preprocessed using outlier detection based on the 3σ criterion, missing value imputation via LSTM neural network, and min-max normalization algorithms to construct a full-domain real-time database. Based on this, a digital twin virtual-real mapping module utilizes the preprocessed data to build a 1:1 high-precision production line with a geometric accuracy error not exceeding 0.1mm, layered and encompassing geometric models, physical models, behavioral models, and rule models. The digital twin model achieves synchronous mapping between the physical production line and the virtual model through two-way real-time data interaction, with replication latency controlled within 200ms. It also performs quantitative analysis of disturbances in the production line's operating status. Specifically, this module calculates disturbance sub-coefficients for seven dimensions: equipment operation, process, logistics, quality, orders, energy consumption costs, and environment. Each sub-coefficient measures disturbances from the perspectives of equipment mean time between failures (MTBF) and overall equipment efficiency deviation, process parameter deviation tolerance, logistics delays and queue backlogs, product defect rate and quality characteristic deviations, order changes and delivery delays, unit product energy consumption and cost exceeding limits, and environmental temperature, humidity, dust, and noise exceeding standards. The system calculates the degree of anomaly in each dimension, then weights and sums the results to obtain the comprehensive disturbance impact coefficient at the current moment. A time decay function is then introduced to accumulate the disturbance coefficients within the historical window, forming an effective disturbance impact coefficient that considers the continued impact of historical disturbances. This coefficient is compared with preset multi-level thresholds to determine the disturbance level of the production line (Level 1: Normal; Level 2: Minor Anomaly; Level 3: Significant Anomaly; Level 4: Severe Anomaly; Level 5: Production Line Stoppage Risk). Simultaneously, the system calculates the rate of change of each dimension's disturbance sub-coefficient to predict the disturbance development trend. When a disturbance in a certain dimension shows a worsening trend, preventative control measures are implemented in advance. The multi-agent collaborative decision-making module... The digital twin module determines the disturbance level and generates a global collaborative control scheme using a hierarchical collaborative control strategy. When the disturbance level is Level 1, a normal monitoring strategy is executed, maintaining the existing control strategy and recording operational data. When the disturbance level is Level 2, a local adjustment strategy is executed, adjusting parameters in abnormal local components and increasing the data acquisition frequency. When the disturbance level is Level 3, a dynamic rescheduling strategy is executed, reallocating production tasks and activating backup resources. When the disturbance level is Level 4, an emergency response strategy is executed, performing a partial shutdown of the faulty area and initiating emergency dispatch. When the disturbance level is Level 5, a disaster recovery strategy is executed, performing a plant-wide emergency shutdown and activating the disaster recovery plan. The entire control process is displayed in real-time through a human-machine interface module, showing the production line operating status, disturbance level determination results, collaborative control scheme, and optimization data. It supports remote manual intervention and parameter setting, thus forming a complete closed loop from data acquisition, twin modeling, disturbance quantification and level determination, to hierarchical collaborative decision-making, and finally returning to the physical production line for execution control.The core innovation of this system lies in the deep integration of digital twin technology with multi-agent collaborative decision-making. The digital twin model not only performs the static function of mapping between the virtual and real worlds, but also embeds a disturbance quantification algorithm based on time decay accumulation. This enables dynamic perception and structured output of complex disturbance states on the production line. The multi-agent collaborative decision-making module then establishes a hierarchical mapping mechanism between disturbance levels and collaborative strategies based on this structured output, achieving end-to-end automated closed-loop control from state identification to control execution. This integrated "perception-mapping-decision-execution" mechanism effectively solves the technical problems of lagging state perception, coarse disturbance judgment, and disconnect between decision-making and state in traditional production line control systems, significantly improving the adaptability, robustness, and collaborative efficiency of intelligent manufacturing production lines under complex operating conditions.
[0039] For ease of understanding, the following are specific examples of the present invention: A new energy vehicle component manufacturer has deployed an intelligent production line for motor housings. This line includes key units such as a CNC machining center, cleaning machine, airtightness testing equipment, automated assembly line, AGV logistics system, and automated warehouse, undertaking the tasks of precision machining, cleaning, testing, and assembly of motor housings. Due to the fast production cycle, high quality requirements, and large order fluctuations, traditional control systems struggle to cope with complex disturbances such as equipment failures, process fluctuations, and material delays. Therefore, the artificial intelligence-based intelligent manufacturing production line collaborative control system described in this invention is adopted.
[0040] The system deploys sensing devices throughout the entire production line: Industrial sensors: Vibration sensors and temperature sensors are installed on the spindle of a CNC machining center to monitor the spindle status in real time; PLC controller: Collects the operating status, cycle time, and alarm codes of each device; Machine vision module: Deploy a high-precision camera at the airtightness inspection station to automatically identify defects on the shell surface and QR code information; RFID logistics identification unit: installed on pallets and AGVs to track the location and flow status of materials in real time; AGV positioning module: Employs laser SLAM navigation to report location and task execution status in real time; Energy consumption monitoring instruments: monitor the instantaneous power and cumulative energy consumption of each device; Environmental monitoring equipment: collects data such as workshop temperature, humidity, and dust concentration.
[0041] During the period from 8:00 to 10:00 on a certain weekday, the system collected the following key data: The spindle temperature of CNC machining center No. 3 rose from the normal value of 45℃ to 68℃, exceeding the warning threshold. Three products at the airtightness testing station were found to have excessive leakage, causing the defect rate to rise from 0.5% to 4%. Due to congestion in the aisle, the delivery time of a certain batch of materials was delayed by 85 seconds in the AGV logistics process, exceeding the standard cycle time by 60 seconds. The order system received an urgent order at 9:30, adding 50 urgent orders, reducing the original order delivery cycle by 20%.
[0042] The multi-source data sensing module collects these data in real time, removes occasional noise from the sensors by 3σ outlier detection, fills in the temporary data loss caused by communication interruption by using LSTM neural network, and finally unifies all data to the [0,1] interval by min-max normalization to build a real-time database for the entire domain.
[0043] Based on the aforementioned real-time data, the digital twin module constructed a 1:1 high-precision digital twin model of the motor housing production line: Geometric model: The 3D model has an accuracy of 0.08mm, which is completely consistent with the actual production line layout; Physical Model: A CNC spindle thermal deformation model is established based on multibody dynamics, and a pressure decay model for airtightness testing is established based on fluid mechanics; Behavioral model: Simulates AGV path planning, equipment start-up and shutdown cycle time, and material flow logic; Rule model: Built-in process specifications, quality judgment standards, and safety interlock rules.
[0044] The system enables bidirectional data interaction between the virtual and physical worlds, with synchronization latency controlled within 150ms. Between 8:00 and 10:00, the digital twin module performs disturbance detection. Calculate the perturbation coefficients for each dimension: Equipment operation disturbance factor: The calculated value is 0.42 due to the temperature deviation of the No. 3 CNC spindle and the overall equipment efficiency decreasing from 85% to 72%. Process disturbance factor: The pressure curve of the airtightness test deviates from the set value and alarms multiple times, and the calculated value is 0.38; Logistics disturbance coefficient: AGV delays cause queue backlog, calculated to be 0.35; Quality disturbance factor: When the defect rate rises to 4% and the number of reworks increases, the calculated value is 0.52; Order disturbance factor: calculated as 0.45 due to urgent order insertions and delivery pressure; Energy consumption cost disturbance coefficient: 0.22 is calculated when the energy consumption per unit product increases by 8%; Environmental disturbance factor: With a workshop temperature of 28℃ (optimal temperature of 24℃) and dust concentration close to the upper limit, the calculated value is 0.28.
[0045] The weighted summation yields the comprehensive disturbance impact coefficient: Calculate based on preset dimension weights (equipment 0.25, process 0.20, logistics 0.15, quality 0.20, orders 0.10, energy consumption 0.05, environment 0.05). =0.415.
[0046] Considering historical disturbances over the past hour ( The values are 0.32, 0.35, 0.38, and 0.40 respectively. Taking the attenuation coefficient k=0.5, the effective disturbance influence coefficient is calculated: =0.918.
[0047] System preset thresholds: 1 = 0.3, 2 = 0.5 3 = 0.8 4 = 1.2. =0.918 is between 0.8 and 1.2, and the disturbance level is judged to be level four, which is a serious anomaly.
[0048] The multi-agent collaborative decision-making module receives the disturbance level (level four) and trend analysis results output by the digital twin module, and then matches the control strategy according to the level: For Level 4 severe anomalies: Implement an emergency response strategy. The module generates instructions to partially halt the production line in the faulty area (CNC 3 and the airtightness testing station), while simultaneously initiating emergency scheduling—allocating the remaining processing tasks to CNCs 1 and 2, adjusting AGV paths to bypass the congested area, and issuing material preparation instructions to the automated warehouse to ensure the continued operation of other parts of the production line.
[0049] Calculate the rate of change of mass perturbation coefficients =0.0047 / min > preset threshold A = 0.003 / min, indicating a worsening trend in quality disturbance, triggering a preventative control warning. In response to the worsening quality disturbance trend: preventative control measures take effect. The system automatically retrieves historical pressure curve data from the airtightness testing equipment, identifies seal wear characteristics, and triggers a maintenance work order in advance, scheduling an operator to replace the testing fixture at 10:30.
[0050] The multi-agent collaborative decision-making module adopts a multi-agent architecture based on reinforcement learning, in which the equipment agent, logistics agent, quality agent, and order agent complete the above scheduling decisions through collaborative negotiation, and the whole process is completed within 200ms.
[0051] It should be noted that the formulas in this application are all dimensionless and numerical calculations. The formulas are obtained by software simulation based on a large amount of data and are the closest to the real situation.
