IIOT Based Smart Factory Setup with Industrial Robot (Smart Factory)

Smart Factory is a robotic setup with connected machines. It can also be called as a Modular Production System (MPS) with IIOT Integration. Smart Factory is designed to provide students with hands on experience on industrial automation techniques which are currently used in the industry.

Unlike other similar setups, Hytech Didactic Robotic Smart Factory offers students with few of the most important training aspects such as:

• PLC Ladder Programming
• HMI Design
• SCADA Design and Integration
• SCADA Runtime design and Operation (MES)
• Robot Integration with PLC – HMI – SCADA
• Remote Commissioning with OPC UA Communication (Siemens Mechatronics Concept Designer)
• Robot Digital Twin (With Dynamic Programming)
• IIOT Based Data Collection and dashboard design In Hytech Didactic, Learning Management System focuses not only on training modules but also on operation training which includes PLC and SCADA based system design and operation.

This training system provides holistic experience in actual industrial automation processes including robotics. User can make use of digital twin software (Siemens Mechatronics Concept Designer) to test and simulate various case studies as well as various PLC ladder designs along with HMI integration.

User can establish a dynamic communication between PLC and Siemens MCD through OPC UA Communication.

Users are also trained on Industrial Robotics with a 7 axes industrial robot and industrial robot tool changer. Each Station along with a Robot is programmed separately and then connected with each other through SCADA. User can design a runtime to display the process status as well as parameters as per the requirement.
