Creating a digital industrial production system for control in mechatronics works

Abstract

This study presents the design and implementation of a production system for digital industrial applications with a focus on mechatronics control. The primary objective is to evaluate system performance using Overall Equipment Effectiveness (OEE) within a digitally integrated manufacturing environment. Operational parameters were established to maintain optimal production cycle times, and the Ideal Cycle Time (ICT) per unit was defined to ensure controllability. Experimental evaluations were conducted across multiple production cycles to quantify the principal OEE components: Availability, representing machine uptime and mitigation of unplanned downtime; Performance, reflecting production rate relative to predefined standards; and Quality, indicating product conformance and defect rates. The results demonstrate that the production system attains high overall effectiveness, exhibiting consistent availability, production speed, and product quality in alignment with industrial benchmarks. Notably, the system shows robustness in maintaining stable cycle times and product quality across most production rounds. Nevertheless, certain cycles experienced reduced availability due to elevated downtime, directly affecting overall OEE. The findings suggest that implementing strategies to minimize unplanned downtime and optimize planned maintenance can further enhance system performance, promoting sustained operational efficiency and reliability in advanced manufacturing settings.
