Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Manufacturing precision
If manual adjustment of device parameters is used to meet processing requirements, then processing quality can be assured, but a large amount of labor and time is required
Solution Approach 1:
The patent creates a virtual copy (digital twin) of the grinding and polishing production line that replicates the physical system's behavior. This virtual model allows for parameter adjustment and process optimization without physically manipulating the actual equipment, thereby reducing adjustment time while maintaining processing quality through simulated validation.
Solution Approach 2:
The system performs preliminary simulations in the virtual environment to determine optimal device parameters before actual processing. By pre-calculating and validating parameters in the virtual model, the system eliminates time-consuming trial-and-adjustment cycles on the physical production line while ensuring processing quality requirements are met.
2Extent of automation
If robotic arms or robots are used to replace labor in grinding and polishing, then automation is improved, but device parameter adjustment still requires tedious manual labor
Solution Approach 1:
The patent replaces manual mechanical adjustment operations with automated computational methods. The virtual model automatically calculates and determines optimal device parameters based on processing requirements, eliminating the need for operators to manually adjust robotic arms and polishing equipment, thereby improving ease of operation while maintaining high automation levels.
3Reliability
If existing grinding and polishing processes are used, then current production capabilities are maintained, but process transfer between production lines is not possible
Solution Approach 1:
The patent creates a universal virtual modeling framework that can represent different grinding and polishing production lines regardless of their specific configurations. This universal model enables process parameters and procedures to be transferred between different production lines by simply updating the virtual model to match the target line's characteristics, thereby achieving both process stability and transferability.
