Remote Manufacturing Process Monitoring, Control & Troubleshooting Through Machine Learning IIoT

摩立特涂料和TRL9都是表面工程公司，客户来自英国和海外的所有关键行业。在过去的5年里，在Innovate UK的支持下，两家公司都开发了改变游戏规则的技术，这些技术通过技术转让许可证分享给客户和竞争对手。这种技术向外转移已成为我们公司战略的一个重要方面，并在MCL、TRL9和目前使用我们技术的组织之间创建了一个高度相互依赖的生态系统。由于新冠肺炎的旅行限制，目前大部分工作是远程完成的。然而，在没有先进的数字远程协助和监测工具的情况下，向我们的许可证持有人提供的技术和服务支持的质量严重受损。这反过来又导致供应链中断，影响到几家英国公司。**价值主张：**拟议的概念是一个灵活的系统，通过连接整个生态系统的涂层应用活动并使其自动化，使质量管理、培训和故障排除变得更容易。实时和历史喷雾数据将可用于数据库，使影响质量的问题能够被快速识别并集中解决--甚至在全球运营和供应商网络中也是如此。数字孪生兄弟的关键价值主张是它能够结合来自不同平台的实时数据、物理依赖模型和智能来模拟、预测和改进资产和E2E流程。**平等、多样性和包容性**：与传统的男性主导的表面工程行业不同；物联网和数字制造自然地将自己呈现为一个没有性别和包容性的行业。**环境：**热喷涂是致癌硬铬电镀的可行替代方案。拟议的平台将提供一种非破坏性涂层测试方法，将样品切割和抛光过程中的废物处理降至最低，并将减少所有使用该技术的工厂的零件报废和返工。

Monitor Coatings and TRL9 are both surface engineering companies with customers from all key industry sectors both in the UK and abroad. Over the last 5 years, with the support from Innovate UK, both companies have developed game changing technologies that are shared, through technology transfer licenses, to customers and competitors alike. Such outward transfer of technology has become an important dimension in our corporate strategies and has created a highly interdependent ecosystem between MCL, TRL9 and the organisations currently using our technologies.Due to COVID-19 travel restrictions, most of the work is currently done remotely. However, in the absence of sophisticated digital remote assistance and monitoring tools the quality of technical and service support to our licensees is extremely compromised. This in turn has causes disruption within the supply chain affecting several UK companies.**Value Proposition:** The proposed concept is a flexible system that makes quality management, training and troubleshooting easier by connecting and automating the coating application activities throughout the ecosystem. Live and historic spray data will be available to a database enabling issues that affect quality to be quickly identified and resolved centrally-even across global operations and into the supplier network.The key value proposition of the digital twin is its ability to combine real-time data, physical dependency models and intelligence from different platforms to simulate, predict and improve assets and E2E processes.**Equality, diversity and inclusion**:Unlike the traditional male dominated surface engineering industry; IoT and Digital Manufacturing presents itself naturally as a genderless and inclusive sector.**Environment:** Thermal spray is a viable alternative to carcinogenic hard chrome plating. The proposed platform will offer a non-destructive coating testing method minimising the waste disposal during cutting and polishing of samples and will result in less part rejections and reworks across all plants using this technology.
