Exploring the flexible robot island from a cyberphysical production system perspective

Industry 4.0 has caused exceptional changes in the industrial world. A relevant breakthrough is the concept of Cyber-Physical Production System (CPPS) which involves a system of interconnected entities with the main objective of achieving flexibility, which is essential for the manufacturing industries to remain competitive due to the actual demand for customization. The project suggests the use of a robot cell distribution called robot island as a solution to address this problem. In the implementation, a virtual model and program will be presented with flexible mobile robots, AGVs and a PLC. All are designed following the three principles of the CPS using RobotStudio and CODESYS to simulate and evaluate the results. The research demonstrates how autonomous, modular, flexible and adaptable to changes in product or production process system is, for example with the integration of the concept of the resource pool and variations in the product characteristics. The resulting executable is made with standardised modules so it can be extrapolated to other manufacturing processes, opening a wide range of possibilities for this island of robots. / <p>Utbytesstudenter</p>
