伊利格推出了“ILLIG Assist”，这是 一个数字服务平台，在迈向工业4.0的道 路上积极支持伊利格客户。由于技术的 突破，数字 化转型正日益成为现实。整 个制造业和包装过程也越来越网络化。 数字化就在这里。IIoT（工业物联 网）和连接性对于制造 业和与生产系 统（如制造执行系统、MES）的工业网 络越来越重要。特别是，自描述标准接 口对于减少定制工作和改进数据 访问变 得越来越重要。
学习系统使机器智能更加完善
伊利格系统长期以来一直采用智能 控制概念（ILLIG IC）。包括机器参数 计算、引导设置系统和动态优化。此 外，热成型系统 可以连接到本地网络和 数据库，以查询生产相关数据。ILLIG Assist完善了这些数字系统，并作为学 习组件帮助机器操作员处 理日常工作流 程中发生的事件。过去，公司只能依靠 笔记和经验丰富的个人的“经验知识”传 承。新的应用程序通过清晰的交互 式图 形用户界面简化了知识转移。
创建知识数据库
来自所连接机器和机器操作员自身 的消息都按时间顺序记录和显示。该系统 自动提供事件的可视定位，并基于解决方 案数据 库提供详细建议，最初由伊利格深 厚的全球专业知识填充。此外，运营商可 以积极提出自己的建议，并通过视频和图 像丰富 自己的建议。集成的评论功能允许 用户对建议的解决方案进行评论和评估。 用户还可以查看和管理轮班报告、维护信 息和数 字手册。这种方法用于建立一个永 久性的知识数据库，防止由于有经验的机 器操作员离开而造成的知识损失，并加快 新员工的培训。
IIoT平台作为连接的基础
ILLIG Assist基于IIoT平台ADAMOS， 可通过模块化微服务架构进行扩展，从而实现与外部系统的连接。向 ILLIG Assist报告的 事件可使用任何启 用互联网的通信终端显示，并可远程通 知操作员。事件通知由操作员发出，或 者在未来版本中，如果网络 机器连接到 IIoT平台，则直接由机器发出。邮件将 自动提供给组织内其他经批准的用户。 除了每台机器的资产管理和聊天功 能 外，ILLIG Assist还提供创建和阅读评 论和其他信息的权限管理。根据用户权 限，系统提供对机器及其子功能模块的 深入了 解，以及对整个生产线、工厂或 全球位置的概述。ILLIG Assist是与客 户一起为机器操作员和生产经理开发 的，旨在通过智能 通信工具和主动知识 管理系统提高生产、服务和维护的效 率。通过数字化，伊利格使客户更接近 他们的流程，提供更高的附 加值。
ILLIG Maschinenbau introduces “ILLIG Assist”, a digital service platform to actively support ILLIG customers on the way to Industry 4.0. Digital transformation is increasingly becoming a reality thanks to breakthrough technologies. This also applies to the packaging industry: manufacturing processes are becoming more digital and the entire valuechain is being networked. Digitalization is here. IIoT (Industrial Internet of Things) and connectivity are increasingly important for manufacturing and industrial networking with production systems such as Manufacturing Execution Systems, MES. In particular, selfdescribing standard interfaces are becoming important to reduce customizing efforts and improve data access.
Learning system complementsmachine intelligence
ILLIG systems have long been equipped with the Intelligent Control Concept (ILLIG IC). Including calculation of machine parameters, a guided setup systems, and dynamic optimization. In addition, thermoforming systems can connect to local networks and databases to query production-related data. ILLIG Assist complements these digital systems and helps the machine operator as a learning component to cope with occurring events in the daily workflow. In the past, companies relied on notes and the ”tribal knowledge” of experienced individuals. The new application simplifies knowledge transfer through a clear and interactive graphic user interface.
Creation of a knowledge database
Messages from both connected machines and machine operators themselvesare recorded and displayed chronologically. The system automatically provides a visual localization of events and offers de tail ed suggestions based on a solution database, initially populated by ILLIG’s deep global expertise. Furthermore, operators can actively contribute their own sugges tions and enrich them with videos and images. An integrated comment func tion allows users to comment on and evaluate proposedsolutions. Users can also view and manage shift reports, maintenance information, and digital manuals. This approach serves to build up a permanent knowledge database, prevents the loss of knowledge due to the departure of experienced machine operators, and accelerates training for new employees.
IIoT platform as a basis for connectivity
ILLIG Assist is based on the IIoT platform ADAMOS and is expandable through a modular architecture of microservices that enable connections to external sys tems. Events reported to ILLIG Assist can be displayed using any internet-enabled communication terminal and operators can be remotely informed. Event notifications are made by the operator or, in future versions, directly by the machine in the case of networked machines connected to the IIoT platform. Messages are automatically made available to oth er approved users inside the organiza tion. In ad-dition to asset management and chat function per machine, ILLIG Assist also provides rights management for creating and reading comments and oth er information. Depending on the user’s rights, the system offers insight into the machine with its functional sub-blocks as well as n overview of the entire line, factory, or worldwide locations. ILLIG Assist has been developed together with customers, for machine operators and production managers, with the aim of increasing efficiencies in production, service, and maintenance through an intelligent communication tool and active knowledge management system. With digitalization, ILLIG brings customers even closer to their process, delivering higher added value.
