智能制造技术需要网络物理基础设施来收集和分析整个制造企业的数据和信息。本文描述了一个建立在网络物理基础设施上的产品生命周期测试平台的概念，该平台可以实现智能制造的研究和开发。该测试平台由计算机辅助技术（CAx）实验室和制造实验室组成，它们通过产品模型进行交互，在整个产品生命周期中创建信息的“数字线程”。提出了测试台的拟议结构和体系结构，突出了实施制造业网络物理基础设施的挑战和要求。在整个产品生命周期中，系统的新颖集成还有助于确定所需的技术和标准，以实现设计，制造和检测之间的互操作性。还讨论了测试平台带来的潜在研究机会，例如提供可公开访问的CAx和制造参考数据，虚拟工厂数据以及用于创建，原型设计和验证智能制造技术的代表性工业环境。
Smart manufacturing technologies require a cyber-physical infrastructure to collect and analyze data and information across the manufacturing enterprise. This paper describes a concept for a product lifecycle test bed built on a cyber-physical infrastructure that enables smart manufacturing research and development. The test bed consists of a Computer-Aided Technologies (CAx) Lab and a Manufacturing Lab that interface through the product model creating a “digital thread” of information across the product lifecycle. The proposed structure and architecture of the test bed is presented, which highlights the challenges and requirements of implementing a cyber-physical infrastructure for manufacturing. The novel integration of systems across the product lifecycle also helps identify the technologies and standards needed to enable interoperability between design, fabrication, and inspection. Potential research opportunities enabled by the test bed are also discussed, such as providing publicly accessible CAx and manufacturing reference data, virtual factory data, and a representative industrial environment for creating, prototyping, and validating smart manufacturing technologies.
