초록

스마트공장의 디지털 트윈에 대한 도입은 이미 CPS(Cyber Physics System)을 통하여 제조산업에 생산성을 높이고자 제안되었던 개념으로 특정한 산업 공정의 단계에 적용되거나 시뮬레이션이 필요한 단계에서 부분적으로 도입되고 있었다. 그러나 최근 4차산업혁명기술 발전을 통해서 XR(Extended Reality) 기술과 함께 다시 주목을 받고 있다. 하지만 실효성 있는 사례가 많지 않기 때문에 본 연구에서는 제조공정을 장치와 장비 그리고 기술을 분석하여 디지털 쓰레드를 적용한 디지털 트윈을 구축하였고 신호와 정보의 동기화하며 이를 통해서 지능형 공정자동화 장비의 관제와 원격제어와 생산정보의 분석이 가능할 수 있는 플랫폼을 제안하고 이를 개발하였다. 이로써 기존에 제조업에서 활용되어지고 있는 자동화 설비공정 및 장비들에 대한 고장 발생 시 원활한 대처의 어려움과 정확한 고장 발생지점에 대한 확인의 어려움, 그리고 생산설비장비의 고장시점 관리의 어려움, 불량에 대한 원인 및 문제 분석과 대처의 어려움을 해결하는데 도움을 줄 수 있는 제안 내용을 다루었다. 향후 본 연구를 통해서 많은 사례들의 선행 연구에 도움이 되길 기대하고 향후에는 지능형 모델을 통해서 공정 및 생산의 부분별 생산성 증가에 대한 확장 연구가 필요하다.

The introduction of smart factory digital twins is a concept that has already been proposed to increase productivity in the manufacturing industry through CPS(Cyber Physics System), and has been applied to specific industrial process stages or partially introduced in stages where simulation is required. However, with the recent development of the 4th Industrial Revolution technology, it is receiving attention again along with XR (Extended Reality) technology. However, because there are not many effective cases, this study analyzed the devices, equipment, and technology of the manufacturing process to build a digital twin applying digital threads and synchronized signals and information to control, remote control, and produce intelligent process automation equipment. A platform capable of analyzing information was proposed and developed. Through this, we designed and built an XR content service platform that can support artificial intelligence and developed it to enable control, remote control, and analysis of production information. A possible platform was proposed and developed. We hope that this study will be helpful in conducting research on many cases, and in the future, expanded research on increasing productivity in each part of the process and production is needed through intelligent models.
