Virtualisation process of a sheet metal punching machine within the Industry 4.0 vision

The fast development of smart sensors and wearable devices has provided the opportunity to develop intelligent operator workspaces. The resultant Human-Cyber-Physical Systems (H-CPS) integrate the operators into flexible and multi-purpose manufacturing processes. The primary enabling factor of the resultant Operator 4.0 paradigm is the integration of advanced sensor and actuator technologies and communications solutions. This work provides an extensive overview of these technologies and highlights that the design of future workplaces should be based on the concept of intelligent space.

“…The approach considered in this revolution, are intelligent and autonomous operations, however, the higher level must be evaluated by human reason for decision making and sensitivity criteria [29]. This will involve the development of new applications and platforms that will facilitate in a simpler way the interconnection of the whole service and protagonists of the supply and transport chain [47].…”

The intralogistic activities of the logistics operators are defined in the grouping of all the processes linked to the reception, storage and distribution of raw materials and final products. Therefore, the study of intralogistic processes as an activity is part of the value chain of a company and, through its management, the result of the operation and an adequate level of customer service will depend on it. The project proposes to evaluate the feasibility of the use of technologies of the industry 4.0 in the intralogistic activities that allow the integration of processes of automation and control for the continuous improvement of the decision making in the processes of storage, load and unload of the logistic operators of the department of the Atlantic -Colombia for the improvement of the enterprise efficiency.Therefore, a review of the literature is carried out framed in three categories: intralogistics, Industry and Technology 4.0, and the application of an instrument to measure the absorption of technologies 4.0 in the company under study, which was validated as a result the importance of Simulation, Automation and load sensing, Collaborative Robotics, Big Data powered by M2M (Machine to Machine communication) and Predictive maintenance -predictive analysis and M2M communication as a solution to the needs that are represented in the environment of the Logistics Operators of the Department of Atlántico -Colombia, based on the challenges and projections imposed by the dynamics of the international market and especially the free trade agreements that the New Granada nation has signed and framed in recent years with the intention of making its economy and especially the organizations of its different regions more efficient.

“…The benefits of automated data acquisition, such as automated derivation of optimisation measures and capturing of motion data are presented in Uhlemann et al (2017). The concept of digital twin can be used e. g. in CNC programs designed for punching machines (Moreno et al, 2017) in order to make the process of cutting more efficient (Botkina et al, 2018), into cyber-physical cloud manufacturing (CPCM) systems (Hu et al, 2018;Kunath and Winkler, 2018), into manufacturing cyber-physical system (MCPS) (Leng et al, 2018), in the cloud assisted cyber-physical systems (CPPS) (Nagy et al, 2018;Wan and Xia, 2017;Zhang, Zhang and Yan, 2018) in the smart process planning of the construction of the diesel engine parts (Liu et al, 2018), or could be helpful to support job scheduling in cyber-physical production systems. Many other applications of digital twins are mentioned in Kritzinger et al (2018), Negri, Fumagalli and Macchi (2017), Padovano et al (2018).…”

Purpose: The aim of this study is to propose alternatives of increasing the efficiency of material selection and processing in the selected company and reduce costs and leather sustainability as a result.Methodology/Approach: In this case study, an automotive company processing a natural leather material that enters the process of a large-scale production was explored. For this purpose, the internal documents of the firm selected including its internal database and know-how of its employees were used. The ways of improving the efficiency of the material processing were proposed and tested in a digital environment. In the proposed solutions, Industry 4.0 principles were implemented.Findings: By the use of Digital twin and other Industry 4.0 principles and solutions in the process of material selection and processing in the company selected, the increased efficiency and cost savings were achieved.Research Limitation/implication: The solutions proposed in this paper were based on exploration of the chosen data set of the selected company. For the future research, testing of the given proposals in other companies should be conducted.Originality/Value of paper: Although there is an increasing number of publications describing the concept Industry 4.0, the research providing evidence of its benefits for business entities is still scarce. This paper offers such a research in the enterprise selected.
