By: TR Cutler In machine or measurement of critical features is a key requirement. To truly understand the effectiveness of a process, the quality of the process needs to be correlated with the execution of the process and the data collected while the process was being executed. The sensor data combined with the controller and machine tool data will identify the aberration by correlating the operation in the machine with the defect area to determine how to detect and prevent the problem from reoccurring. The amount of data is truly daunting, but modern cloud based big data technologies allow us to perform large scale computations using distributed analytics and detect patterns in the data to determine subtle correlations. Also, modern signal processing techniques that have been used for speech recognition can be applied to find patterns in various data streams. “Using modern statistical machine learning and high speed pattern matching – vimana – we can identify the patterns and then predict them in real-time. Industry 4.0 will require a system like vimana to become a reality. It will require real-time monitoring and feedback to the CPS to adjust processes and provide the analytical foundation to transition from a human-machine to a machine-machine control,” shared Sobel. With full automation there is also a need to have machines monitoring machines to detect failures and predict when maintenance is required. As machines become autonomous, they will also be responsible for measuring and maintaining their health. The single operator per machine who maintains and cares for that piece of equipment will not scale and a single operator may be responsible for multiple machines that are all interconnected. The operator will be responsible for resolving exceptions and performing maintenance as well as making sure the material is available and other physical aspects that are beyond the machines capabilities.
