abstract

• The new 4.0 industrial revolution has changed the way that products are manufactured and processed in many ways. One of these ways is using different Digital Manufacturing (DM) tools. These tools have a variety of uses and ways that they can improve manufacturing at every level; one of these tools being digital twin creation. This paper attempts to utilize key Industry 4.0 trends in optimizing a manufacturing process in which a robotic arm is in a pick-and-place operation. The goal of this research is to propose a solution by the Digital twin’s concept incorporating some industry 4.0 trends. A digital manufacturing model implemented with Tecnomatix is created to leverage digital technologies to support the manufacturing operations digital twin and to improve upon the existing system to facilitate the foundation for growth as well as cost control, scheduling, and quality management. These digital models allow the integration of intelligent sensors and a standardized IIoT framework helped to evaluate the efficiency of the system. This paper aims to implement a FANUC robot modeled in Tecnomatix incorporating an Intelligent Automation (IA) process that adheres to Industry 4.0 standards.
