Outcomes, Insights and Best Practices from IIC Testbeds: Smart Factory Web Testbed
wants to do this as efficiently as possible.
Once the production order is finished, the
factory provides the finished or partial
product to the original manufacturer or to
another element in the overall supply chain.
but they are not part of experimentation in
this
testbed.
A
proof-of-concept
implementation in the Smart Factory Web
Testbed will handle the ordering workflows
and modeling of supply chains. The
proposed
IIC
testbed
“Negotiation
Automation Platform” led by NEC © will
extend the concepts of the Smart Factory
Web and take up this sub-scenario.
This usage scenario, Order Driven Adaptive
Production, is a combination of the
application scenarios “order controlled
production” and “adaptable factory” as
defined by Plattform Industrie 4.0 (PI4.0) 1 . In
further detail, this scenario is split into the
following sub-scenarios:
Sub-Scenario 1.4 Adapt: Adapting the
Factory Production
Realized in Phase 2: “Plug & Work” to flexibly
and efficiently adapt a production facility to
meet order requirements.
Sub-Scenario 1.1 Publish: Registration of
Smart Factories
Realized in Phase 1: “Geospatial Mapping
and Factory Information” with the help of
AutomationML
to
describe
factory
capabilities and assets.
Sub-Scenario 1.5 Bind: Smart Factory Web
Asset Connectivity and Monitoring
Realized in Phase 3: “Data & Service
Integration” to provide current information
on product and asset status (including
availability of free capacity) for exploitation
in the Smart Factory Web, especially to
support the discovery process and linking of
supply chains through secure data exchange.
The Smart Factory Web information model
will be updated dynamically.
Sub-scenario 1.2 Find: Discovering Smart
Factories
Realized in Phase 1: “Geospatial Mapping
and Factory Information” to find smart
factories registered in the Smart Factory
Web with the desired capabilities best
matching the order requirements.
Sub-Scenario 1.6 Collaborate:
Collaborative Engineering
Sub-scenario 1.3 Order: Management and
Execution of Orders in Smart Factory Web
To be realized in Phase 4: “Collaboration” to
enhance the efficient adaptation of factory
production with shared engineering
workflows and software Plug & Work.
The workflows to broker, orchestrate and
process production orders in the Smart
Factory Web constitute this sub-scenario,
