Abstract

The presented paper deals with the use of Industry 4.0 elements in industrial metrology applied to a production cell located at the Institute of Manufacturing Machines, Systems and Robotics, Faculty of Mechanical Engineering, Brno University of Technology. Conventional machine tool measurement methods can only improve the geometric accuracy of the machine tool, but the contribution of dynamic forces and the selected technological parameters are also reflected in the working accuracy during the production of a real part. The aim is to improve the manufacturing accuracy of the machine tool by measuring the machined parts using a single-purpose measuring station. The control system of this station was designed using virtual commissioning technology on Siemens platforms (NX MCD and Simatic PLC). The resulting measured data are stored in a local database. The design includes the creation of an infrastructure where the initial data processing will be handled by edge computing and the subsequent visualization will be done in the cloud environment MindSphere from Siemens and in virtual reality (Oculus & HTC).
