Among them, the IoT technology is applied to construct the interconnection environment between various devices of the manufacturing system to realize the interconnection and real-time data perception of various production elements in the physical space, virtual-real space, and virtual space; big data and cloud computing technologies are applied to the data integration of the manufacturing system solution simulation and the optimization analysis of the solution to construct a closed-loop planning simulation logic of "perception-simulation calculation-execution-optimization-decision-feedback"; digital twin technology is applied to build a digital twin environment of the manufacturing system to realize the virtual-real collaborative operation simulation and optimization analysis of the re-planning and improvement plan of the manufacturing system.
[0004] Through the above analysis, the problems and defects of the existing technology are as follows:
[0005] (1) In the re-planning and improvement of the processing functions and capabilities of existing manufacturing systems, the virtual-real collaborative operation simulation and optimization analysis have poor effects, the accuracy of the obtained data information is low, and it provides poor guidance for actual manufacturing production.

[0081] The first step is to model the configuration of the existing manufacturing system in the physical space; as Figure 2 shown;
[0082] First, build a digital twin environment for the current manufacturing system, and establish a digital twin model of the manufacturing system that maps physical entities in real - time in the virtual space. The formal description of the current manufacturing system digital twin model CMS is shown in formula (1):
[0083] CMS = {G_M, Inf_M, B_M, C_M, Inter_M} (1)
[0084] In the formula, G_M represents the geometric model, which is composed of point, line, surface, and body features; Inf_M represents the current manufacturing system operation state information model, which is used to extract the operation state information of production factors in the system; B_M represents the behavior model that occurs in the manufacturing system; C_M represents the control model triggered by the behavior; Inter_M represents the interaction model between production factors;
[0085] Secondly, analyze the processing functions and capabilities of the existing manufacturing system, and establish a processing function and processing capacity model for the system; among them, the processing function F current The formal description is shown in formula (2):
[0086] F current = [p c1 , p c2 , ···, p ci (i = 1, 2, ···, n) (2)
[0087]
[0088] Wherein, p ci represents the content of the i-th process that can be processed by the current manufacturing system, where i = 1, 2, ···, n; Prod k represents all the process contents included in the processing of the k-th part, p c(r,i) represents that the process content included in the processing of part k belongs to p ci ;
[0089] The processing capacity A of the current manufacturing system current is formally described as shown in (4) and (5):
[0090]
[0091] A current = max(T1, T2, ···, T l )(5)
[0092] Wherein, T cl represents the time required for the current manufacturing system to process a part l; ToP(p ci , j) represents the time required for the process p ci to be processed on the machine tool j; A current represents the time required for the current manufacturing system to process a part fastest, and is used to describe the processing capacity of the current manufacturing system;
[0093] According to the above modeling process, the digital twin model of the current physical space manufacturing system is obtained and the configuration information model is established.
[0094] Second step, parameter parsing of the application service layer;
[0095] First, build data transmission networks such as the local area network and wireless network of the manufacturing system to provide network support for the unified access of multi-mode terminals; secondly, develop a cloud database model of the manufacturing system with a permission control mechanism, and establish real-time data communication interfaces and human-computer interaction interfaces for the physical space, virtual space, and application service layer; finally, establish an interaction mechanism between customer requirements and manufacturing system simulation planning based on the above network and interface standards, and according to the parameter data input by customer requirements, including but not limited to the types of required products, corresponding process contents, processing quantities, and delivery dates.
[0096] Third step, model configuration and simulation analysis of the manufacturing system re-improvement planning scheme; as Figure 3 shown;

[0101] ②Verify the processing function
[0102] F future = [p f1 , p f2 , ···, p fn (n = 1, 2, ···, N) (7)
[0103] In the formula, F future represents all the processing operation contents corresponding to the customer's demand. If F future ≠F current , it indicates that the processing function of the current manufacturing system is insufficient, and reconfiguration of processing resources is required. The formal description of the configuration is as follows:

[0105] M future = [m1, m2, ···, m u (u = 1, 2, ···, U) (9)
[0106] In the formula, represents the scale of the manufacturing system required to meet the customer's demand; M current represents the production factors (numerical control machine tools) possessed by the current manufacturing system; M future represents the content of the production factors to be newly added;
[0107] If F future = F current , there is no need to re-plan the processing function of the current manufacturing system, and directly verify the processing capacity, go to ③;
[0108] ③Verify the processing capacity
[0109] A future = C, where C is a constant (10)
[0110] In the formula, A future represents the maximum completion time of a single product for the customer's demand, and planning and simulation need to be carried out according to the analysis of the processing function requirements;
[0111] Secondly, according to the above customer demand analysis process, M futureAs a result, based on the digital twin model construction technology of the manufacturing system, M is constructed future a digital twin model of the manufacturing system containing the production factors it includes, establish a logical mapping relationship between the current manufacturing system in the physical space and the target manufacturing system in the virtual space, and realize bidirectional data transmission between entities, between entities and the digital twin model, and between digital twin models by establishing a data interface protocol.
[0112] Finally, for the processing requirements of the customer-demand products, carry out collaborative simulation operations of the manufacturing system in the virtual and real spaces, analyze and process the simulation statistical data, and through the closed-loop planning simulation logic of "perception - simulation calculation - execution - optimization - decision - feedback", obtain the processing function and capacity re-improvement planning target scheme of the manufacturing system.
