Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the technical field of tire manufacturing, and in particular to a digital twin system and method for tire manufacturing. Background Technology
[0002] The final stage of tire production, namely the final inspection and sorting after vulcanization, is crucial for ensuring product quality, meeting customer needs, and realizing product value. Currently, a modern tire production line typically connects multiple high-precision testing devices, such as uniformity testing machines, dynamic balancing machines, X-ray inspection machines, and visual inspection stations, each generating massive amounts of data reflecting specific dimensions of tire quality. However, this data and the corresponding decision-making processes face significant technical challenges, becoming a bottleneck restricting production efficiency and maximizing value. Firstly, the independent operation of each testing device results in data with varying formats and scattered storage, lacking a unified data aggregation and correlation system with each individual tire as a unique index. Data such as the uniformity force spectrum, imbalance phase, internal defect images, and external blemish coordinates of a single tire are fragmented, failing to form a complete and structured description of its quality status. This leads to one-sided quality assessments, hindering comprehensive quality ratings and making it difficult to support in-depth analysis and traceability based on multi-dimensional quality. Secondly, most existing sorting systems operate based on pre-set, simple, and fixed rules. For example, simply sorting tires into qualified and unqualified categories based on whether the uniformity first-level force (RFV1H) exceeds the general standards of the supplier (such as the automotive OEM) cannot meet the needs of flexible orders. High-end customers have multi-dimensional and high-precision personalized matching requirements for tires (such as requiring the weight difference of tires on the same axle to be less than 10 grams, or the phase distribution of dynamic imbalance to be uniform); while ordinary replacement market customers may be more concerned about cost-effectiveness. Rigid sorting rules cannot allocate the right tires to the orders that need them most, resulting in a value mismatch of "selling high-quality tires at low prices" or "order requirements not being met." It also cannot achieve intelligent combination of superior tires to compensate for inferior ones. For example, two tires with slight defects in a single indicator but complementary defect characteristics (e.g., one with slightly large radial force fluctuation but excellent dynamic balance, and the other with the opposite) may be wasted if judged as "defective" on their own. In fact, using them together or matching them to models that are not sensitive to the corresponding indicators may fully meet the requirements. The current system lacks the intelligent decision-making ability to perform such multi-tire collaborative matching and compensation. Third, due to the lack of a structured "quality file" covering the entire lifecycle of a single tire, when market feedback indicates problems with a specific batch or model, quality engineers struggle to quickly and accurately pinpoint all tires in the same batch and correlate them with all process parameters and testing data from the production process for root cause analysis. Quality data cannot effectively feed back into process optimization, thus failing to form a closed-loop data system.
[0003] Therefore, there is an urgent need for a digital twin system and method for tire production to improve the above-mentioned problems. Summary of the Invention
[0004] To address the aforementioned technical challenges, this invention provides a digital twin system and method for tire production that completely breaks down data silos, establishing a complete and structured digital twin file for each tire. This improves management quality, and the system moves beyond simple binary judgments, instead seeking the optimal match between tires and orders to maximize the fulfillment of personalized customer needs, significantly enhancing product added value and customer satisfaction. Furthermore, through a multi-objective optimization algorithm, it comprehensively considers multiple factors such as inventory, order priority, and sorting efficiency, achieving intelligent scheduling and optimal allocation of tire inventory. This reduces the waste of high-quality tires and the ineffective inventory of substandard tires, improving overall operational efficiency. Finally, the structured holographic quality file enables rapid and accurate traceability of any quality issue.

[0020] Example The customer's order requires 200 sets (800 tires in total) of the same specification. The customer is extremely sensitive to NVH (noise, vibration, and harshness) and driving range, therefore imposing strict matching requirements (soft constraints): Constraint C1: The fluctuation phase of the uniform first-order radial force (RFV1H) of the four tires mounted on the same vehicle should be distributed as evenly as possible on the circumference (ideally at 90-degree intervals) to counteract vibration. Constraint C2: The weight difference of the four tires of the same vehicle shall not exceed 15 grams; Constraint C3: Prioritize tires with small dynamic balance, and the phases of imbalance of tires on the same vehicle should also be dispersed as much as possible; Constraint C4: Absolutely no internal structural defects (such as bubbles or abnormal cords) are allowed. Workflow: Step 1: Data Acquisition and File Construction: The testing equipment at the back end of the production line inspects the tires coming off the line. Tire T-20231028001 has completed inspection, and the system has collected the following data: RFID code: T-20231028001; Uniformity: RFV1H = 8.2 N, phase = 45 degrees; RFV2H = 3.1 N, phase = 120 degrees; Dynamic balance: Unbalance amount = 12g, phase of left plane = 30 degrees, phase of right plane = 210 degrees; X-ray inspection: No internal defects (feature vector is 0); Weight: 10,235 grams; Appearance: Flawless; The system's holographic quality profile building layer immediately generates a holographic quality object for the tire, storing all its features in a structured manner; Step 2, Order Parsing and Matching Preparation: The order management module of the matching and decision optimization layer parses the OEM order and transforms the above constraints C1-C4 into input conditions for the optimization problem; Step 3, Intelligent Matching and Optimization: The matching engine matches the requirements of 800 tires with the tire profiles to create a model. The optimization solver searches with the goal of "maximizing the overall score of C1-C4". After finding tires that meet the requirements, the global optimization solver will assign a virtual label to the four tires and assign them to a virtual vehicle order slot, until the optimal or suboptimal tire combination is found for all 200 vehicle slots. Step 4: Generate and issue sorting instructions: After calculation, the optimization solver outputs a list of globally optimal or near-optimal allocation schemes. The scheme clearly indicates which vehicle slot of the customer order the selected tires should be allocated to. At the same time, in order to execute efficiently, the path planning module of the flexible sorting execution layer calculates an optimal sorting path to quickly transport the selected tires to the selected vehicle slot of the customer order. Step 5, Flexible Execution and File Update: Once the selected tires are successfully placed in the designated vehicle slots, the system automatically updates their holographic quality files, adds matched orders, and marks the selected tires' inventory status as allocated. Step Six: Continuous Learning: All matching and sorting data are recorded. If the batch of tires performs well in subsequent road tests, the system can learn this matching pattern. If individual feedback occurs, the system can quickly trace the holographic files of all tires in the same batch for in-depth analysis.
[0021] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention. It should be noted that for those skilled in the art, several improvements and modifications can be made without departing from the technical principles of the present invention, and these improvements and modifications should also be considered within the scope of protection of the present invention.
