Abstract

The latest industrial revolution, Industry 4.0, has called upon for the needs of integrating the processes involved in the production systems with the advanced information technologies powered by artificial intelligence and data driven analytical solutions. In the past decade, we have witnessed how the simulation models developed by analyzing the Big Data generated by the manufacturing units have aided in boosting the productivity of the industry and give rise to the concept of smart manufacturing; especially in the manufacturing sectors lead by additive manufacturing technology. A 3D printer is a classic example of an additive manufacturing machine and hence has been considered as the framework of study in this research. Deployment & development of digital twin technology will engage the manufacturing systems in a heuristic cyber domain that will help the manufacturing industries to achieve larger productivity with reduced downtime. The proposed digital twin model of the 3D printer shows a framework for developing a machine learning module to reduce and replace the standard defects and reducing the data transmission and data overload in wireless networks.
