Design of the Intelligent Manufacturing Demonstration System based on IoT in the Context of Industry 4.0

With the concept of German Industry 4.0, the Chinese manufacturing industry is in a critical period of restructuring and upgrading. With the gradual change of Chinese manufacturing industry from the mass and mass to the niche, personalized stage, the traditional rigid production system couldn't make enough. This paper designed an Industry 4.0 intelligent manufacturing demonstration system based on Internet of Things. The system is based on the background of the model car assembly, which simulates the whole process of the delivery of the consumer from the single to the manufacturer. The vertical seamless integration of network production system is realized by getting through the information communication interface on the device layers between ERP and MES. The system adopts modular manufacturing mode, via WIA-FA and Software defined Control System technology, adjusting the production process dynamically, to achieve the function of scale production of customized products and the predictive maintenance of equipment etc. This system may reduce equipment downtime and improve equipment utilization, which solves the lower flexibility of the traditional rigid production system responding to the changing demands of design the production. It fully embodies the concept of Industry 4.0 in the smart factory.
