Abstract:

Abstract This paper reviews and identifies issues in the application of virtual commissioning technology for automated manufacturing systems. While the real commissioning of a manufacturing system involves a real plant system and a real controller, the virtual commissioning deals with a virtual plant model and a real controller. The expected benefits of virtual commissioning are the reduction of debugging and correction efforts during the subsequent real commissioning stage. However, it requires a virtual plant model and hence still requires significant amount time and efforts. Two main issues are identified, the physical model construction of a virtual device, and the logical model construction of a virtual device. This paper reviews the current literature related to the two issues and proposes future research directions to achieve the full utilization of virtual commissioning technology.

Abstract:

Virtual commissioning has acquired a major interest with the introduction of Industry 4.0. It is demonstrated that virtual commissioning can significantly reduce the commissioning time, error rate and costs. However, industry is still experiencing difficulties with the integration of these new technologies. This paper is one of the first empirical surveys conducted in the industry that aims at understanding the challenges and current practices with respect to virtual commissioning, with special focus on the machine tool manufacturing sector. The survey contextualizes the practice of virtual commissioning and the digital twin in industry, and benchmarks the results with academia, in which main gaps are identified. Keywords: empirical survey, virtual commissioning, digital twin, machine tool manufacturing, testing

Abstract:

The creation of robotic vehicles for agricultural purposes is a promising direction in the automotive industry. The complexity of the self-driving truck's design, work in difficult operating conditions, and a large number of measuring devices and processing subsystems determine the relevance of creating a virtual test system. These tests are part of the overall virtual commissioning process for a robotic vehicle. The article discusses a set of basic subsystems that provide virtual tests based on a model-based approach: mathematical modeling, measurement modeling, information subsystem with databases, visualization and documentation subsystem. Metrological models of measuring channels for virtual tests have been developed, allowing simulating random vehicle parameter changes. The testing process covers all the most essential components of a robotic vehicle. For example, the article presents a dynamic model of the braking system of a robotic chassis and shows the results of braking modes' virtual tests. The developed virtual test system is used to create a KAMAZ truck as part of a robotic system for agricultural vehicles.

Abstract:

Digital twin (DT) is an emerging key technology that enables sophisticated interaction between physical objects and their virtual replicas, with applications in almost all engineering fields. Although it has recently gained significant attraction in both industry and academia, so far it has no unanimously adopted and established definition. One may therefore come across many definitions of what DT is and how to create it. DT can be designed for an existing process and help us to improve it. Another possible approach is to create the DT for a brand new device. In this case, it can reveal how the system would behave in given conditions or when controlled. One of purposes of a DT is to support the commissioning of devices. So far, recognized and used techniques to make the commissioning more effective are virtual commissioning and hybrid commissioning. In this article, we present a concept of hybrid virtual commissioning. This concept aims to point out the possibility to use real devices already at the stage of virtual commissioning. It is introduced in a practical case study of a robotic manipulator with machine vision controlled with a programmable logic controller in a pick-and-place application. This study presents the benefits that stem from the proposed approach and also details when it is convenient to use it.

Abstract:

The commissioning of new designs, technologies, production related changes and control codes and strategies has been always a risky milestone to overcome in manufacturing. It has been carried out, in many instances, in a (quasi) poka-yoke way often leading companies to incur extra costs affecting the overall efficiency of a given project. In this regard, the emergence of novel Virtual Commissioning tools and methods have become a great asset adding to the commissioning process the values of shorter times, flexibility and reduced risks. The present paper aims at giving an introductory insight into the early steps of “Virtual Commissioning” in the software Tecnomatix Plant Simulation in conjunction with other engineering tools like the S7-PLCSIM Advanced and STEP 7 TIA Portal. It generally exploressome of the capabilities of the software, and boards the benefits of using it prior to the implementation/real commissioning. The paper further lists key steps related to the realization of this process andmakes emphasis on the interconnection and functioning of all of these tools for Virtual Commissioning purposes. At the end, there is also a simple example that implements and illustrates some of the contents and knowledge addressed.

Abstract:

The aim of the contribution is to create an event-controlled simulation of an automated production system using selected simulation software according to analyses and creation PLC control program compatible with human-machine control interface (HMI) visualization. The programmer can test the control program without the need for additional hardware on a virtual model of the machine. This method is called as a Virtual Commissioning method. The question is whether these new digital technologies are beneficial in the development process of new machines. The theoretical part of the contribution deals with the evaluation of the current state of knowledge in the field of virtual commissioning systems from the perspective of the Industry 4.0 concept and the use of principles taken from the technology of digital twins for analysing the possibilities of productive support of simulation, programming and visualization of control. For the Virtual Commissioning of the Quality-handling station from a flexible production system. It was chosen Tecnomatix Process simulating software for the developing of the Digital Twin of the station that is suitable for the connection of the logical behaviour inputs and outputs of the Digital Twin to the PLCSIM emulator. The main goal is to create a functional PLC program, so that in the second phase the process of virtual commissioning can be tested by the Software-the-Loop method. The preparation of the simulation model consists in a sample of the control station model of the production system, the process of creating kinematic bonds, behaviour model, creating control signals in the Tecnomatix Process Simulate program. Programming procedure and acquaintance with control means in the Simatic Manager program, selection of communication interface and creation of control visualization. In the final work, validation is performed and evaluation supports the objectives and the results confirmed the benefits of the Virtual Commissioning tool.

Abstract:

This paper presents a method to support the development of energy management concepts for machine and plant construction. The energy management concepts are required to put the plant components into an energy saving mode during unproductive phases. These concepts then have to be implemented in the control software. Different dependencies in the production and process flow have to be considered when developing the concepts. Due to the complexity of production plants, a supporting simulation tool is planned to be implemented. With the aid of this tool, different energy management concepts and their derived control software can already be validated virtually in the planning and development phase. This presents an energetic extension of the so-called virtual commissioning concept. Conventional virtual commissioning involves only the process operation functionality in a virtual simulation model of the plant. Now, however, energetic functionalities are assigned to the different model components. Thus, a simulation of the energy consumption in different operation modes can be created for each component. Energy management concepts can only be developed if the components’ energy consumption is known in the different scenarios.

Abstract:

Virtual Commissioning (VC) is a method and tool for verifying and testing the PLC control program on a virtual digital model of the manufacturing system. It allows to visualize and test the control system before the real commissioning of the production systems. The aim of the research is to implement virtual reality (VR) into the VC method and to verify the mutual interaction of signals between the simulation in VR environment, the digital model of the production system and the control system. The introduction of VR in VC increases the concept by adding more realistic visualization and tracking, which extends its validation capabilities. The changes made in VR virtual environment are transferred to the simulation model and can be validated in a real production system. The real production robotic system transformed into a virtual form will be a case study with its verification. Also will be tested security protocols and proven human interaction with the system to control the system through the virtual HMI (virtual user interface) using VR.

Abstract:

Die virtuelle Inbetriebnahme repräsentiert eine etablierte Phase des Lebenszyklus eines modernen Produktionssystems, in der die Definition von Simulationsmodellen eine Schlüsselrolle spielt. Im Falle von Montagelinien erfolgt die Layoutplanung in Iterationen mit geringem Automatisierungsgrad, wodurch die Phase des Engineerings sowie eine anschließende Erstellung des virtuellen Inbetriebnahme-Modells verlangsamt wird. In diesem Beitrag wird ein Konzept für einen modellbasierten Ansatz zur vollautomatisierten Planung von Montagelinien vorgestellt, womit eine automatisierte Modellerstellung für die virtuelle Inbetriebnahme durch eine Zuordnung von Montageprozessmodellen bezüglich kompatiblen Fähigkeiten der Betriebsmittel erlaubt wird.   Virtual commissioning represents an established phase in the life cycle of a modern production system, where the definition of simulation models plays a key role. In the case of assembly lines, layout planning is done in iterations with a low degree of automation, slowing down the engineering phase, and subsequent creation of the virtual commissioning model. In this paper, a concept for a model-based approach to fully automated planning of assembly lines is presented, enabling automated model generation for virtual commissioning by mapping assembly process models to compatible capabilities of the equipment.

Abstract:

Achenbach supplies worldwide with first-class customized rolling mills and machinery for the manufacturing of flat-rolled products from non-ferrous metals. In order to fulfil the customer-specific production requirements, Achenbach developed a wide variety of options for specific subjects. The control of the strip quality parameters like flatness or thickness in the rolling process is a key performance index.An increase of computation power in the field of industrial computers gave a chance to develop more complex model based control algorithms, which led to a significant improvement of the strip quality. In addition it gave an impulse for the development of a comprehensive mathematical model of the rolling mill.This paper will present the general virtual Achenbach Rolling Mill which is a digital representation of the rolling process in general and the behavior of the major actuators in the rolling process in detail. The behavior of drives, strip-tensions, and roll-gap is simulated in a multi-variable real-time environment. In the same environment the OPTIROLLi3®- model based controls can interact with the virtual machine. A vast number of challenges of the real rolling situation can be demonstrated by working on this ‘mill simulator’ and improved solutions are developed taking advantages from this platform. As the virtual machine allows all kinds of virtual testing without scrapping ‘real material’ a wide range of applications is possible for this virtual rolling mill. Some results from the SIL (software in loop) simulation will be presented for better clarity.

Abstract:

UK public health nurse assessment of family resilience is a necessary component of monitoring family health and children’s development and identifying areas for change. This research was part of an exploration of Welsh public health nurses’ understanding of ‘family resilience’ as a concept underpinning their practice. From it, the Family Resilience Assessment Instrument Tool (FRAITTM www.frait.wales/) was developed for public health nurses use. We report on a virtual commissioning process using focus groups and an immersive simulation suite to test a FRAIT prototype in a safe environment before field testing. Virtual commissioning design: Hydra-Minerva Immersive Simulation Suite – individual public health nurses presented with a multi-media scenario as they used the prototype FRAIT. Follow-up focus groups for usability insights before field testing. Virtual commissioning raised real-world issues which public health nurses discussed in focus groups. Issues were scoring, absence of information, focusing on family resilience, identifying adults caring for children, potential for use, identifying need and monitoring change, potential impact of using FRAIT and fitting it to everyday practice. Prototype testing like this allowed us to fine tune the FRAIT for field testing.

Abstract:

Abstract Digital twins are rapidly establishing themselves as a necessary step in digital change also in the design of automated and robotic manufacturing systems. The digital twin serves as an interface between physical industrial products and digital worlds. This allows you to map the continuous availability of data throughout the lifecycle from product planning and development, production and commissioning to use and recycling. An important step towards this goal is to create digital twins of the components in order to create a database usable for the design of new production systems in a virtual environment. One of the possibilities of using the digital twins is testing and virtual commissioning of production systems. Instead of the classic CAD model, the digital twin replaces a detailed digital image of individual components, including their full functionality. The Digital Twin comprises the CAD model, kinematic behavior model a most important is the logical behavior model. Our goal is to create a digital twin component of the production system, integrate a CAD model, create a kinematic model and a logical behavior model. This digital twin will have signals assigned to it for logical behavior. The result is the verification and testing of the information exchange between the virtual control system and the virtual model, using the Software-in-the-Loop method and the Tecnomatix Process Simulate software environment on the digital twin side and the Siemens TIA Portal with PLC SIM Advanced on the controller side. The result of the knowledge is that the exchange of information is functional and usable for virtual commissioning.

Abstract:

Abstract Nowadays there are commercial tools and academic solutions that support and contribute to Virtual Commissioning (VC). However, the main obstacle which hinders the broader application of VC in practice is the modeling time and effort required to create a proper simulation model. The modeling is also separated from the current project development lifecycle. This paper presents a semi-automatic method to transform the 3D geometry model of a production cell into a simulation-enabled virtual representation (i. e., a high fidelity simulation model of the cell). The geometry is combined with dynamic behavior which is a behavior description modeled intuitively based on VDI 2860. The entire method is embedded into a virtual commissioning workflow and is exemplified by a production cell with conveyors. Several commercial modeling and simulation tools are used and combined in the workflow to demonstrate the applicability. The presented methodology bases on AutomationML.

Abstract:

The Royal Cornwall Hospital virtual clinic service was implemented to follow up hip and knee joint replacement patients in line with national guidelines. In total, 300 patients were followed up via a virtual clinic during the first 11 months, and another 520 patients, who were already undergoing conventional face-to-face follow-up, were recruited to the new service for future follow up after consenting and registering with a web-based system for collecting patient reported outcome measures. There were high levels of patient satisfaction: patients found it effective, quick and easy. However, they missed the personal interaction, which occurs during face-to-face appointments. Only 21% of slots were filled and use of the service varied by surgical teams from 6–54%. Further improvements are planned to fulfil a potential productivity gain that converts two face-to-face appointments into five virtual clinic appointments. Following implementation, our local Clinical Commissioning Group awarded a Commissioning for Quality and Innovation grant of £216 000 to sustain the service beyond its first year.

Abstract:

Operator assistance systems can help to reduce disturbance-related machine downtime in food production and packaging processes, especially when combined with machine learning algorithms. These assistance systems analyze the available sensor signals of the process control over time to help operators identify the causes of disturbances. Training such systems requires sufficient test data, which often are hardly available. Thus, this paper presents a study to investigate how test data for teaching machine learning algorithms can be generated by numerical simulation. The potential of using virtual commissioning (VC) software for simulating disturbances of discrete processes is examined, considering the example of a friction and collision-afflicted sub-process from an intermitting wrapping machine for confectionary. In this study the software industrialPhysics (iP) is analyzed regarding accuracy of static and dynamic friction and restitution. The values are verified by setting up virtual substitute tests and comparing the results with analytically determined values. Subsequently, prerecorded disturbances are classified, and seven selected elements are simulated in VC software, recording visual effects and switching the characteristics of sensors. The verification shows that VC software is generally adequate for the assigned task. Restrictions occur regarding the computing power required of the built-in physics engine and the resulting reduction of the machine to be simulated.

Abstract:

AbstractThis paper reports on the commissioning tests performed on a new GE Lightspeed RT wide-bore computed tomography (CT) scanner with GE Advantage Sim software. This paper focuses on the laser marking system, CT hardware and the interfaces between each component of the system, and generalises the findings to most CT simulation systems currently available. A discussion on the commissioning of the virtual simulator software will follow in a separate paper. Three phantoms were used (two constructed in-house) to assist with a range of tests covering aspects such as the laser patient marking system, CT hardware, and connections between the CT scanner, virtual simulator system and the treatment planning system (TPS) and VARiS. Tests performed showed the CT simulation system to be working within acceptable tolerances suggested in the literature, and baseline data have been obtained against which future comparisons of system performance have been made. Where no tolerances were available, we have suggested suitable values. While considering tolerances on Hounsfield number variation that may lead to a dose error in excess of 2%, we found that in the case of low-kV CT scanning the range of Hounsfield numbers for dense bone was outside the acceptable limits for potential dose errors and so users were advised not to perform radiotherapy planning CT scans with kV below 100 kV.

Abstract:

Intelligent robotic manufacturing cells must adapt to ever-varying operating conditions, developing autonomously optimal manufacturing strategies to achieve the best quality and overall productivity. Intelligent and cognitive behaviors are realized by using distributed controllers, in which complex control logics must interact and process a wide variety of input/output signals. In particular, programmable logic controllers (PLCs) and robot controllers must be coordinated and integrated. Then, there is the need to simulate the robotic cells’ behavior for performance verification and optimization by evaluating the effects of both PLC and robot control codes. In this context, this work proposes a method, and its implementation into an integrated tool, to exploit the potential of ABB RobotStudio software as a virtual prototyping platform for robotic cells, in which real robots control codes are executed on a virtual controller and integrated with Beckhoff PLC environment. For this purpose, a PLC Smart Component was conceived as an extension of RobotStudio functionalities to exchange signals with a TwinCAT instance. The new module allows the virtual commissioning of a complete robotic cell to be performed, assessing the control logics effects on the overall productivity. The solution is demonstrated on a robotic assembly cell, showing its feasibility and effectiveness in optimizing the final performance.
