Digital Twin and IIoT in Optimizing Manufacturing Process and Quality Management
specification for each PiP ; the need to connect to product quality test system to gather and record test outcome associated with individual PiP .
• The need to provide online analytics based on the data collected to support online and batch quality performance and other analytics .
Evidently , this is a use case that can clearly leverage the capabilities an IIoT platform with a digital twin framework can offer :
• IoT capability to connect to equipment and sensors to collect data ;
• comprehensive digital representation , namely , digital twins , of the production environment , most importantly , the equipment twins and the product twins to track their status and process data , and the dynamic relationship between PiPs with the equipment so actually process data can be collected and correlated with the PiPs ;
• analytic capability that can be digital twin-embedded to analyze data associated with equipment and PiPs
• application DevOp environment for develop and running the application that implement the business logic and user interfaces .
3.4 IIoT Platform and Digital Twin Framework-based Design
The system design is based on the Yo-i Thingswise Industrial Data OS ( iDOS ), an Industrial Internet Platform embedded with a digital twin framework , purposely designed , in reference to
