Abstract
The additive manufacturing is constantly growing and this theme is receiving increasingly more attention of industries and the academic world. Differently from the traditional manufacturing, the subtractive one, a reduction on the complex parts production time, a reduction on the cost, an optimization of material usage and reduction of waste are sought after through the construction of those parts by layers. This work presents an additive manufacturing type, the arc welding deposition of material which will be implemented through a welding power supply and an ABB IRB 2600 robot. In order to create a Metal Additive Manufacturing Digital Twin, it was decided to utilize the software RoboDK and ABB RobotStudio. That application puts into practice concepts related to Internet of Things (IoT) and Industrial Internet of things (IIoT), which will be applied in this work for real-time monitoring of an asset in a laboratory. The standardization basis for the development of the Digital Twin in question is the ISO 23247, which establishes directives for guiding the creation of control and monitoring systems related to services inherent to recent applications of the Industry 4.0. Through this standard, it is possible to determine the interface between domains that provide services and applications to the user and also to other subsequent layers/domains. In the exchange of data between each domain there is the use of communication protocols that are common in IoT applications such as MQTT, web protocols such as HTTP and WebGL for simulation of 3D movement in the browser and data transmission protocols between machines such as RS 232, which in this project will be used to obtain data from the robotic additive manufacturing cell. Furthermore, the torch used for the deposition of metallic material in 3D printing will be described, designed and applied in the manufacturing cell; thus the project is characterized not only by the creation of a virtual model of the asset but also by the development of functional aspects needed to adapt the robot for additive manufacturing.
