Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of new energy vehicle manufacturing technology, specifically relating to a method and system for optimizing the island-level assembly process of new energy vehicles through data-driven and real-time collaboration. Background Technology
[0002] With the rapid development of the new energy vehicle industry and the increasingly shorter model iteration cycle, higher demands are being placed on the precision, reliability, and efficiency of assembly processes. For example, new energy vehicle manufacturers have planned island-based manufacturing paradigms, involving island-level precision assembly processes such as body assembly islands, seat assembly islands, window assembly islands, and front and rear windshield assembly islands. These processes involve multi-dimensional parameters including equipment layout, material delivery routes, worker positions, and assembly sequence. Traditional assembly process planning mainly relies on physical trial and error and engineer experience, resulting in long adjustment cycles, high resource consumption, and low optimization efficiency.
[0003] In existing technologies, digital simulation technology has been applied to the assembly process planning stage, using a three-dimensional geometric model of the production line for interference checks and cycle time analysis. However, these purely digital methods have limitations such as insufficient model fidelity and missing physical properties, making it difficult to accurately reflect the dynamic changes in the physical assembly environment. For example, in complex product assembly, the deformation effects of tooling, part contact and springback, and the loads on the assembly can lead to significant deviations between theoretical models and actual results. On the other hand, while sensor network-based physical data acquisition methods can obtain real data from production line operation, they lack deep coupling with digital models and cannot effectively support online optimization and prediction of process parameters.
[0004] Currently, digital twin technology offers new insights for assembly process optimization. Related research has attempted to construct virtual product development management technologies to address data cross-referencing, coupling, and redundancy issues in the development of digital prototypes for mechanical equipment. However, existing digital twin applications largely focus on condition monitoring and fault diagnosis. For example, power grid digital twin fault simulation equipment utilizes historical data for fault reconstruction, or sliding mode reconstruction observers are used in aircraft control for fault diagnosis and fault-tolerant control. However, in the field of assembly processes, a complete technical system for bidirectional mapping and collaborative optimization between digital and physical spaces is still lacking.
[0005] Specifically, in the assembly process of new energy vehicles, the technical challenges include: (1) lagging optimization of process parameters: problems such as unbalanced assembly cycle time and resource waiting time deviation in the physical space cannot be fed back to the digital space for optimization in real time; (2) rigid resource allocation: the allocation of resources such as material distribution and personnel workstations lacks the ability to dynamically adjust based on the assembly status. These problems lead to unstable assembly quality of new energy vehicles and difficulty in further improving production efficiency. Summary of the Invention
[0006] To address the aforementioned technical problems, this invention provides a digital-physical collaborative method and system for optimizing the island-level assembly process of new energy vehicles.

Theoretical resource waiting time Key equipment utilization rate and material flow status And construct a comprehensive performance index for the simulation system. , The calculation formula is:
[0036] (2)
[0037] in, The minimum assembly cycle time under ideal conditions is determined by the longest single-operation time; The average utilization rate of key equipment is determined by... The average value is used to obtain the result. The cost of material flow congestion is calculated using the following formula: ,in For the quantity of material buffer zone, Let j be the average queue length of the j-th material buffer.

During the time period, the status vector of the inspection equipment at the end of the assembly line. In this context, a key signal is predefined: "Product successfully rolled off the production line." This signal typically generates a pulse when a single product completes the entire assembly process. In the data sequence, the statistical end-of-line detection device status vector The number of pulses that trigger the "product successfully off the production line" signal can be used to obtain the result. .
[0049] Used to evaluate the consistency between digital twin simulation results and entity execution results, reflecting the prediction accuracy of the digital twin model. The higher the value, the more reliable the digital simulation results are, and the more suitable they are for subsequent optimization decisions. According to formula (3), The closer the value is to 1, the closer the actual assembly cycle time is to the theoretical assembly cycle time, and the more accurate the prediction of the digital twin model.
[0050] At the same time, based on The first pass rate is calculated based on the quality inspection results. And based on predefined assembly quality thresholds judge The pass rate.

[0078] in, This represents the material consumption rate per unit time at the workstation. For standard delivery container capacity; This represents the total manual operation time for all workstations. This is the preset labor efficiency coefficient. This is the floor function. This represents the ratio of the total manual hours required to complete all manual tasks within an assembly cycle, taking into account labor efficiency, to the hours that a single person can contribute within one assembly cycle. It reflects the theoretically minimum number of personnel required. Since the number of personnel must be an integer and must meet workload requirements, this value needs to be rounded up to obtain the actual number of personnel that should be allocated. .
[0079] This invention proposes a data-driven, real-world collaborative method for optimizing island-level assembly processes in new energy vehicles. Through data-driven, real-world collaborative process simulation technology, it constructs a closed-loop optimization system for digital space simulation and physical space testing of new energy vehicle assembly processes.
