Abstract

The European project ASSISTANT will provide a set of AI-based digital twins that helps process engineers and production planners to operate collaborative mixed-model assembly lines based on the data collected from IoT devices and external data sources. Such a tool will help planners to design the assembly line, plan the production, operate the line, and improve process tuning. In addition, the system monitors the line in real-time, ensures that all required resources are available, and allows fast re-planning when necessary. ASSISTANT aims to make cost-effective decisions while ensuring product quality, safety and wellbeing of the workers, and managing the various sources of uncertainties. The resulting digital twin systems will be data-driven, agile, autonomous, collaborative and explainable, safe but reactive.
