Title: | A generic tri-model-based approach for product-level digital twin development in a smart manufacturing environment | Authors: | Zheng, P Sivabalan, AS |
Issue Date: | Aug-2020 | Source: | Robotics and computer - integrated manufacturing, Aug. 2020, v. 64, 101958 | Abstract: | Smart manufacturing, as an emerging manufacturing paradigm, leverages massive in-context data from manufacturing systems for intelligent decision makings. In such context, Cyber-Physical Systems (CPS) play a key role in digitizing manufacturing systems and integrating multiple systems together for collaborative works. Amongst different levels of smartness and connectedness of CPS, Digital Twin (DT), as an exact digital copy of a physical object or system including its properties and relationship with the environment, has a significant impact on realizing smart manufacturing. A DT constantly synchronizes with its physical system and provides real-time high-fidelity simulations of the system and offers ubiquitous control over the system. Despite its great advantages, few works have been discussed about DT reference models, let alone a generic manner to establish it for smart manufacturing. Aiming to fill the gap, this research introduces a generic CPS system architecture for DT establishment in smart manufacturing with a novel tri-model-based approach (i.e. digital model, computational model and graph-based model) for product-level DT development. The tri-model works concurrently to simulate real-world physical behaviour and characteristics of the digital model. To validate the proposed architecture and approach, a case study of an open source 3D printer DT establishment is further conducted. Conclusions and future works are also highlighted to provide insightful knowledge to both academia and industries at last. | Keywords: | Cyber-physical systems Digital twin Reference model Smart manufacturing |
