Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Measurement precision
If separate processing of industrial process data and laboratory assay analysis data is performed with artificial re-processing, then data consistency can be ensured, but real-time forecasting requirements cannot be met
Solution Approach 1:
The system divides data processing into two independent modules: an industrial process data processing module that processes sensor data in real-time, and a laboratory assay analysis data processing module that processes laboratory data. These modules operate independently and feed into separate forecasting models, eliminating the need for artificial re-processing while maintaining data consistency through the dual-module architecture.
2Measurement precision
If manual data processing and model training is performed, then data consistency can be maintained, but real-time feedback cannot be provided to staff
Solution Approach 1:
The system replaces manual mechanical data processing with automated computer-based processing. The industrial process data processing module and laboratory assay analysis data processing module automatically process data and generate forecasting results, which are then transmitted to user terminals in real-time, eliminating delays associated with manual operations.
3Measurement precision
If staff manually acquire and verify production data, then data accuracy can be ensured, but product quality improvement and energy consumption reduction become difficult
Solution Approach 1:
The system implements self-service through automated data acquisition and verification. The industrial process data processing module automatically acquires sensor data, and the laboratory assay analysis data processing module automatically processes laboratory data. The system performs self-verification through the forecasting models, eliminating the need for manual data acquisition and verification by staff while maintaining data accuracy.
4Ease of manufacture
If existing separate data processing methods are used, then data can be processed, but real-time forecasting and adjustment capabilities are lost
Solution Approach 1:
The system achieves multi-functionality by integrating two independent processing modules that can handle different types of data (industrial process data and laboratory assay data) through a unified architecture. Both modules feed into forecasting models that provide real-time predictions, enabling the system to maintain data processing capabilities while gaining real-time forecasting and adjustment capabilities through the coordinated operation of multiple functional components.
