Development and application of standard data schema for interoperability between manufacturing application systems

摘要

In recent years, successful manufacturing activities such as managing production efficiency, managing yields and responding to changes in demand are becoming more difficult as boundary breakdown among manufacturing application systems accelerates. To solve this problem, the importance of manufacturing information management and control is increasing, and the establishment of manufacturing application IT systems is becoming necessary. To match the speed of technological development centered on the 4th Industrial Revolution, smart factories in manufacturing industries are being introduced without methods for linking them with existing operating systems. In other words, to apply various manufacturing application systems to manufacturing sites, customizations that reflect different production processes, reference information, and site requirements are required by industry and company. Solving the problems of matching individual interfaces is required for compatibility with other manufacturing application systems. In this paper, a manufacturing data integration schema was established as a collaborative tool to secure consistency in the meaning of data and to enhance the reuse of different data models among manufacturing application systems such as Product Lifecycle Management (PLM), Manufacturing Execution System(MES) and Enterprise Resource Planning(ERP).
