The specific calculation steps are as follows:

[0086] Collect process control data: For each process, relevant quality characteristic index values need to be obtained; assuming there are k processes, then each process will have a set of quality characteristic index values a1, b1,..., bn;

[0087] Calculate the standard deviation: For the quality characteristic index values of each process, their standard deviation S needs to be calculated; the standard deviation is a measure of the dispersion of numerical values and reflects the fluctuation of these quality characteristic index values; the calculation formula for the standard deviation is:

[0097] In this embodiment, specifically, the method for constructing the three-dimensional model of the physical device includes:

[0098] Step S1: Data collection; collect the device design parameters and production process parameters through the sensing module and data acquisition module of the physical entity unit; specifically collect the specific data information of the device through the physical entity unit; this step involves two main types of data acquisition:

[0099] Design parameter information: covering the original design materials such as the design specifications, dimensions, and structural features of the device;

[0100] Production process parameter information: including the relevant parameters such as the operating status, performance indicators, and environmental conditions generated during the actual production process;

[0101] These data will provide a basis for constructing an accurate three-dimensional model in the subsequent steps, ensuring that the model can truly reflect the characteristics and behaviors of the physical device;

[0102] Step S2: Initial modeling; generate an initial three-dimensional model using 3D modeling software; specifically use professional 3D modeling software (such as 3Dmax or Maya) to create the initial three-dimensional models of various physical devices; in this step, determine and input the key physical data and attributes of the physical device, including but not limited to temperature, humidity, time, pressure, speed, and flow rate, etc., to ensure the accuracy and practicality of the model;

[0103] Step S3: Parameter integration; import the static device design parameters and dynamic production process parameters into the initial three-dimensional model; specifically integrate the collected physical device parameter information and the dynamic parameter information during the production process into the initial model, so as to generate a three-dimensional model of the physical device that reflects the actual situation;

[0104] Step S4: Map Engine Matching; Associate the 3D model imported in Step S3 with the multi-resolution map engine to generate a thumbnail of the process area. It should be noted that the development of the multi-resolution map engine is to build a multi-resolution map engine for high-precision simulation of each production process link. This engine can provide different levels of detailed views, ensuring that users can obtain the area thumbnails of each production process and supporting seamless switching from macro to micro; The matching of process simulation and the map engine is to establish a connection between the 3D model and the map engine, so that when any process link in the 3D model is selected, the system can automatically locate and display the corresponding specific process 3D scene, providing users with intuitive operation guidance and analysis tools; That is, by combining the production process simulation of the 3D model with an advanced map engine, the system can automatically generate area thumbnails corresponding to each production process. When users browse these thumbnails, they can intuitively understand the geographical location of each process and its relative layout. When users select any specific process link in the 3D model, the system will immediately locate and load the detailed 3D scene corresponding to that process. This function not only simplifies the process for users to navigate to specific processes, but also provides a more immersive interactive experience, enabling users to deeply explore and analyze the specific situation of each production step. This integration method not only improves the convenience and efficiency of user operations, but also enhances the understanding and control ability of the production process. Whether it is used for training new employees or optimizing existing production processes, this function can provide strong support to ensure that users can accurately simulate and evaluate actual production activities in a virtual environment.

[0105] In this embodiment, specifically, the construction method of the twin digital model includes:

[0106] Step A: Data Deepening; On the basis of the 3D model of the physical equipment, further integrate real-time high-frequency data; Among them, parameter information collection and input: First, import various parameter information of the physical equipment and all parameter information involved in the production process into the twin system. This includes but is not limited to various parameter adjustments of the equipment, the time required for each process, the movement trajectory, the pressure borne by the equipment components, the temperature and humidity information in the process environment, the running speed of the equipment components, and the material transfer flow rate, etc.;

[0107] Real-time data integration: Based on the above-collected information, build a twin digital model in the twin system that can reflect the real-time status of each production process. This model not only includes static physical properties, but also dynamically reflects the changes in the production process, such as time progress, movement path, pressure change, temperature and humidity conditions, speed change, and flow fluctuation, etc., ensuring a high degree of simulation of the actual production situation by the model;

[0108] Step B: Model Optimization; Filter out non-process-related auxiliary components through the elimination module and retain key moving parts; that is, when inputting the parameters of the equipment and the parameter information in the production process into the digital twin model, the elimination module focuses on retaining the key component information involved in the process movement in the 3D model of the physical equipment; this module will screen and exclude those auxiliary components that do not directly participate in the specific process steps to ensure that the digital twin model only contains elements that have a direct impact on the production process flow, thereby improving the accuracy and simulation efficiency of the model. This can ensure that the digital twin model can accurately reflect the functional characteristics of the physical equipment and simplify unnecessary details, making the simulation more efficient and focused;

[0109] Step C: Dynamic Rendering; Achieve high-fidelity materials and optical effects based on the rendering module; specifically including:

[0110] Select the rendering engine and technology: Select the Unreal engine as the underlying rendering engine to achieve high-quality visual effects. At the same time, use physically based rendering (PBR) technology for the material design of the process equipment to ensure that the objects in the virtual environment have realistic optical properties and surface textures;

[0111] Visualization of the process links: Conduct detailed rendering for each process link in the twin digital model, which not only enhances the realism of the model but also makes the positions and movement trajectories of each process component clearer and distinguishable. In this way, users can intuitively observe every detail in the production process, which helps improve the monitoring efficiency and decision-making accuracy;

[0112] Optimize the rendering performance: Introduce the rendering thread mechanism to enable the parallel execution of program logic processing and rendering content generation. This strategy effectively improves the system's response speed and operation efficiency, ensuring a smooth operation experience even when dealing with complex scenarios. In addition, it also supports more refined differentiation and management of the dynamic performance of each process component in the twin digital model, further enhancing the authenticity and interactivity of the simulation;

[0113] Step D: Bidirectional collaboration; real-time interaction through the PLC control module with physical devices; that is, using the PLC (Programmable Logic Controller) control module to operate the digital twin platform to achieve data interaction and synchronization between the physical device and the corresponding digital model. This process ensures that the data of the physical device can drive its digital twin model in real time, enabling the two to perform collaborative actions. At the same time, the digital twin model can also guide the actions of the physical device in reverse, forming a two-way interaction, thus achieving a highly consistent collaborative motion effect; through the above integration solution, a bidirectional collaborative motion mechanism between the physical device and the digital twin model is achieved; this mechanism allows different operation scenarios to be simulated and tested in a virtual environment, optimizes the working process of the physical device, and feeds back the optimized instructions to the actual device for execution, forming a closed-loop control system, greatly improving the intelligent level of production and resource utilization rate.

[0114] In this embodiment, to further enhance the flexibility and response speed of the system, the system also integrates a remote monitoring module, enabling operators to monitor and manage the status of physical devices in real time from a remote location. This not only improves the safety and efficiency of operations but also facilitates the timely discovery and resolution of potential problems, ensuring the smooth operation of the production process.
