Complex components and manufacturing processes are becoming an ever greater challenge for today's machines, as static manufacturing processes and classic control techniques are not flexible and adaptive enough and are therefore subject to severe restrictions in terms of sampling rates and accuracy. By means of process-integrated sensor technology, various process data, such as vibration, temperature and position, can be recorded and transmitted wirelessly in order to derive an adaptive manufacturing process on this constant data stream in the future. Due to the complex machining process, high mobility requirements or cost- and time-reduced implementation, a wireless real-time solution is required to deliver the data with high reliability to the end application.
To achieve this, the Fraunhofer IPT has developed a modular 5G multisensor platform together with its partners Marposs and Ublox. With this, multiple sensors such as vibration, temperature, strain can be integrated directly on the workpiece and transmit data in real time via 5G. In addition, the data coming from the platform, can be synchronized in time with the Sara-module developed by Ublox. With the help of this data, it is possible to act adaptively on the machining process in real time. Furthermore, all data is time-stamped, allowing it to be synchronized with other data sources and creating a digital twin for further analysis.
