Sino-German cooperation flexible manufacturing solution unveiled

The adaptive modular flexible manufacturing solution jointly created by the Shenyang Institute of Automation of the Chinese Academy of Sciences and the German Chinese Academy of Sciences (SAP) was unveiled at the 2019 Industrial Internet Global Summit. The solution uses the world's leading edge computing and cloud platform collaborative manufacturing and modular production concepts, opening up the entire process of design, manufacturing, delivery, operation and maintenance, through a truly end-to-end digital intelligent connection to Corrugated Box Machine achieve a highly flexible production , Which will greatly improve the production efficiency of large-scale personalized product customization.

In the flexible manufacturing process, the teleoperation work unit and variable process operation unit created by Shenyang Automation of the Chinese Academy of Sciences adopted edge cloud collaboration and modular production concepts in the form of production organization, decoupling traditional production lines into modular production units. The remote operation work unit combines the force feedback handle guidance and the terminal force perception. The user operates the handle to control the robot's movements remotely. It can be applied to certain dangerous work scenes. Through cloud edge perception, it can achieve the same as the personnel on-site operation. Effect; The variable process operation unit adopts a new architecture of edge collaborative control formed by an independently developed edge controller and edge gateway, which integrates robot motion control technology, visual image processing technology, artificial intelligence technology and digital twin technology, within the operation unit. Complete model decoupling, and finally realize the internal reconfigurable flexibility characteristics. In addition, the Corrugated Cardboard Machine program also added workshop warehouse management and cloud sales management, to achieve a true end-to-end business management.

It is understood that the cooperation between the Shenyang Institute of Automation of the Chinese Academy of Sciences and SAP has achieved fruitful results. The two sides combined their rich industry experience to jointly explore intelligent manufacturing technologies and standard systems that adapt to the status quo in China to achieve technological complementarity and joint innovation. The realization of the Corrugated Cardboard Cutting Machine vertical seamless integration of the Industry 4.0 networked production system and the creation of an industrial Internet ecosystem compatible with China's economic development are of great significance for promoting the conversion of old and new kinetic energy and high-quality economic development in Liaoning Province.
