Industry 4.0 architectural thinking on the implementation of industrial enterprises "one"

Germany's "Industry 4.0" will actively deploy the information Physics system (CPS CPS, cyber-physical Systems) platform to implement the factory's "intelligent manufacturing".

"Intelligent manufacturing" has become a new trend of global manufacturing industry, intelligent equipment and production means in the future will be widely replaced by the traditional mode of production.

CPS will change the way humans interact with the physical world, enabling the material productivity of future manufacturing to be highly integrated with 3 resources of energy, materials and information , providing effective protection for "smart factories" and "smart manufacturing".

The United States, Germany and other world industrial powers attach great importance to the construction of information physics system, strengthen the strategic, forward-looking deployment, and has made positive research progress.

However, the development of manufacturing industry in China is still based on simple expanded reproduction, and it is urgent to transform and upgrade traditional manufacturing through intelligent production, intelligent equipment and "industry 4.0" concept.

System Architecture Objectives

1). longitudinal integration; "Y-Axis"

Vertical integration is to solve the integration of internal information system islands, unified by a core system, which is the basis of the following steps;

2). Horizontal integration;

Horizontal integration, is to open up the value chain and information network to achieve a resource integration, that is, the company's external and internal programs or resources sharing.

Can be through the Enterprise Portal B2B,B2C Internet Technology Implementation, the enterprise internal and external information portal to communicate;

Within the enterprise: such as optimized solutions, excellent information experts, even the financial Sharing Center, a unified recruitment platform, standardized services, lower marginal costs, faster response time to provide services;

Enterprise external: To the customer, through the crm,web8d system, the specific scenario can be an external customer service, through this system record services personnel, products, reflect the problem, follow-up matters, customer feedback wait;

For suppliers, self-check personal information, goods in place, consignment settlement information, the expected closing date, as well as the bar code of the goods;

3). End-to-end integration;

Human level: Through BPM business process reengineering, through the Headquarters/plant/Department of Process integration, according to the actual business process of the enterprise clear responsibility, position clear, streamline approval, to achieve the improvement of process efficiency;

Then through the ERP internal approval release strategy, GRC responsibility separation, OA approval workflow, contract document management authorization for process hardening L

The level of data: Through the XI, middleware technology, Datahub technology, different systems of heterogeneous data to open up; (such as PLM,MES,ERP,PORTAL,HR,SRM, etc.)

The main solution is the connectivity of heterogeneous systems, real-time exchange, communication frequency synchronization and other technical issues;

To the author's customer enterprise, for example, metal processing industry, each section of the sorting/scheduling statistics or through the CT Technician manual statistical written reports, coupled with Excel computing as the basis, the first need to comb is the Enterprise factory internal poor white network information base, as well as the distribution of interests between the departments of the difficulties

Through the sensor and RFID bar code to get through the MES/ERP/PLC/information exchange, from the mold/assembly plant into a digital factory, but each embedded sub-node is extremely complex, but also to ensure that the network stability and system robustness in the factory;

1). Deploy a unified internal WiFi network, and each site "port" for the deployment of RFID scanning gun/mini-printing equipment "for printing production work order data" and so on;

2). The traditional machinery and equipment to transform, in the premise of preserving the original processing capacity, equipped with sensors, PLC programmable controller, RFID identification equipment, through the PLC programmable control unit to collect data in the production process (hours/defect rate/number of failures, etc.)

3). Due to the different system parameters of each device, a data dictionary based on meta-data structure is required to be used for system indexing.

4). To get through the data communication and interaction mechanism of the MES system and the bottom control Unit plc, deploy the middleware platform; "For example, data interaction format based on XML/XSLT" This part of the work requires close cooperation with the PLC suppliers, the technical requirements of the document;

5). From the bottom up to open up the MES system and ERP system data communication (such as XI/RFC communication), interaction such as production batches, finished production quantity, scheduling information, actual work hours information statistics, completion information, defective product quantity, etc.

"such as the completion of SAP confirmation co11n such as the confirmation of information"
