OPEN INNOVATION PLATFORM FOR OPTIMISING PRODUCTION SYSTEMS BY COMBINING PRODUCT DEVELOPMENT, VIRTUAL ENGINEERING WORKFLOWS AND PRODUCTION DATA (PIONEER)

如今，在动荡的全球化市场中，欧洲制造企业面临着一系列挑战，市场需求空前突变，产品种类不断增加，批量规模不断缩小，全球竞争加剧，生产成本、产品质量和生产效率不断受到压力。因此，必须实施新颖的产品开发策略，以确保和优化小批量生产系统中新产品或变体的制造。PIONEER旨在开发开放式创新平台和可互操作的数字管道，以解决模拟设计优化框架。为此，PIONEER实施了内联前馈控制策略，以提高高混合/小批量生产方案中工业系统的效率，该策略基于材料建模和材料特性之间的联系，基于仿真的数字孪生和数据驱动模型，通过嵌入式物联网边缘设备和产品质量的分布式生产数据进行更新。PIONEER建立在五个支柱上，用于开发两个演示中部署的通用方法，涉及多学科优化，以确保通过线弧增材制造（WAAM）制造拓扑优化结构元件的认证路径规划策略。，小批量生产计划，以及确保制造汽车用碳纤维板材模压化合物（CF-SMC）组件的有效设计和制造策略。，高混合生产方案-。PIONEER建立在以下方面的知识和成果之上：(1)以前的H2020欧盟项目；Ii)关联——即EMMC ASBL， IOF， VMAP标准社区，IDTA -；iii)项目合作伙伴的商业产品。

Nowadays, European manufacturing enterprises are facing a number of challenges in a turbulent globalized market facing unprecedented and abrupt changes in market demands, an ever-increasing number of product variants and smaller lot sizes, intensifying the worldwide competition and causing a continuous pressure on production costs, product quality and production efficiency. Therefore, novel product development strategies for ensuring and optimising the manufacturing of new products or variants in low-volume production systems must be implemented. PIONEER aims the development of an open innovation platform and interoperable digital pipeline for addressing a design-by-simulation optimisation framework. For that, PIONEER implements inline feedforward control strategies for enhancing the efficiency of the industrial systems in high-mix/low-volume production schemes, based on the connection between materials modelling and materials characterisation, simulation-based digital twins and data-driven models, updated through distributed production data from embedded IoT edge devices and product quality. PIONEER is built over five pillars for development a common methodology deployed in two demonstrators by involving multidisciplinary optimisation for ensuring certified path planning strategies for the manufacturing of topology optimised structural elementsthrough Wire-Arc Additive Manufacturing (WAAM) in construction –i.e., low-volume production schemes–, as well as for ensuring an efficient design and manufacturing strategy for the manufacturing of Carbon Fibre Sheet Moulding Compound (CF-SMC) components in automotive –i.e., high-mix production schemes–. PIONEER is built on the knowledge and results gained in i) previous H2020 EU projects; ii) associations –i.e. EMMC ASBL, IOF, VMAP Standard Community, IDTA—; and iii) commercial products from project partners.
