Wireless communication may be performed between the server 11 and the networked devices 12. The networked devices 12 may communicate with the production facility 13 by wire. The server 11 can perform data transmission with the production equipment 13 through the networking device 12. When the server 11 needs to send data to the production equipment 13, the server 11 first sends the data to the networking device 12, and the networking device 12 forwards the data sent by the server 11 to the production equipment 13. Accordingly, when the production device 13 needs to send data to the server 11, the production device 13 first sends the data to the networking device 12, and the networking device 12 forwards the data to the server 11.

The present embodiment does not limit the specific forms of the production apparatus 13, the server 11, and the networking device 12. For example, the production apparatus 13 may be a textile production apparatus or a sewing production apparatus or the like. The textile production apparatus may be any mechanical apparatus capable of processing natural or chemical fibers into textile products. The sewing production equipment can be any mechanical equipment capable of forming stitches on materials such as cloth. The server 11 may be any computing device having data processing capabilities. The networked devices 12 may be any devices capable of transmitting and receiving data and performing data format conversion.

The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the present application, and it is obvious that the described embodiments are some, but not all, embodiments of the present application. All other embodiments, which can be derived by a person skilled in the art from the embodiments given herein without making any creative effort, shall fall within the protection scope of the present application.

Fig. 2 is a flowchart of a communication method according to an embodiment of the present application. As shown in fig. 2, the communication method provided by this embodiment may include:

s201, the production equipment establishes connection with the server.

In this embodiment, a specific manner of establishing a connection between the production device and the server is not limited.

As a possible implementation, the production device may send registration request information to the server. And the server registers the production equipment on the server according to the specific information of the production equipment contained in the registration request information, and sends registration response information to the production equipment according to the registration result, wherein the registration response information is used for indicating whether the registration is successful or not. In this embodiment, the specific information included in the registration request information is not limited, and may include any information required when the server registers the production device. Optionally, the registration request information may include at least one of the following: the name of the production device, the network information of the production device, and the machine attributes of the production device. The network information of the production device may be, for example, an Internet Protocol Address (IP) Address, a subnet mask, a default gateway, and the like of the production device. When the production apparatus is a glove knitting machine, the machine attribute of the production apparatus may be, for example, the machine model of the glove knitting machine, the number of needles per inch at the time of knitting, or the like.

S202, data transmission is carried out between the server and the production equipment.

According to the communication method, the production equipment is connected with the server for data transmission, the production equipment is connected to the local area network, and the server performs unified management, so that the production efficiency and the intelligent degree of the production equipment are improved, and the labor cost of the textile industry is effectively reduced.

In another embodiment of the present application, referring to fig. 3, optionally, in an implementation manner, in S202, the data transmission between the server and the production device may include:

s301, the server sends production task information to the production equipment. The production task information comprises order information and pattern information.

Correspondingly, the production equipment receives the production task information sent by the server.

Specifically, the server may send the production task information to the production device before the production device performs production. And the production equipment automatically sets the production equipment according to the production task information. And the production equipment produces the product according to the production task information sent by the server. By sending the production task information to the production equipment by the server before the production equipment is started, the production equipment can be uniformly set.

In this embodiment, specific content of the order information is not limited, as long as production tasks of different production devices can be uniquely distinguished. Optionally, the order information may include at least one of the following: order number, batch number, and work order number. Typically, the order information is used for overall management of the order by the factory. The maximum unit of production management may be defined as an order, with an order number corresponding one-to-one to each order. When the production volume of a product contained in an order is very large, the order is usually divided into a plurality of batches, wherein each batch has a batch number, and the batch number corresponds to each batch one by one. The production tasks of each batch are distributed to different production equipment, the production tasks received by each production equipment can be defined as work orders, the work orders have work order numbers, and the work order numbers correspond to the work orders one by one. For example. The order required 1000 gloves to be produced, with order number a. The order is divided into 2 batches, with the batch numbers 0001 and 0002 in sequence. For each batch, this was done by 5 glove machines, each producing 100 gloves. Suppose that 5 job orders corresponding to the lot number 0001 are 1 to 5, respectively, and 5 job orders corresponding to the lot number 0002 are 6 to 10, respectively. The order information may be a00015 for instructing a glove machine to produce the last 100 gloves of order number a lot 0001.

It should be noted that, in the embodiment of the present application, the order and the work order may not be distinguished from each other without causing confusion.

The specific content of the pattern information is not limited in this embodiment, and may be any information that enables the production equipment to sew or weave the product.

As a possible implementation, the pattern information may be pattern data relating to a sewn or woven product. The server sends the pattern data to the production equipment, and the production equipment can directly produce according to the pattern data, so that the operations of introducing the pattern data through a USB flash disk and the like are avoided.

As another possible implementation, the pattern information may be an Identification (ID) of the pattern, which is an ID of the pattern on the server. The server sends the pattern ID to the production equipment, and the production equipment can search the pattern data corresponding to the pattern ID in the storage device according to the ID and carry out production according to the pattern data. When the pattern information is a pattern identifier, the production facility needs to store a correspondence between the pattern ID and the pattern data in advance, for example. Alternatively, the server may communicate with the production apparatus periodically or aperiodically to update the correspondence between the pattern ID and the pattern data stored in the production apparatus. The server transmits only the pattern ID to the production apparatus, and the amount of data transmitted between the server and the production apparatus can be reduced.

Optionally, the production task information may further include raw material information. Taking the production equipment as a glove machine as an example, the raw material information may include information on the use condition of main yarns, elastic yarns and the like related to the work order. The server sends the raw material information to the production equipment, and the production equipment directly displays the raw material information, so that mistakes can be avoided when an operator manually records the raw material data, the accuracy rate of raw material use is improved, and meanwhile, the working efficiency is also improved.

In another embodiment of the present application, referring to fig. 3, optionally, in another implementation manner, in S202, the data transmission between the production device and the server may include:

s302, the production equipment sends the production task statistical information to the server at the first time.

Wherein the production task statistics may include at least one of: and counting the finished number of the products, the number of defective products, the number of waste products and the finished degree of the waste products in the time length.

Correspondingly, the server receives the production task statistical information sent by the production equipment at the first time.

Specifically, when the production equipment produces the product according to the production order information, the production task statistical information can be reported to the server. The production equipment uploads the production task statistical information to the server, and the server can monitor the completion condition of the current order and the abandonment condition of the raw materials, so that the order completion quantity can be adjusted in time and/or the raw materials can be supplemented.

The first time is not limited in this embodiment, and may be specifically set according to an actual situation. Optionally, the first time comprises at least one of: the time when the production equipment has finished producing one product, the time when the production equipment has finished producing one product and determines that the product is a defective product, the time when the production equipment stops producing one product, and the time determined according to a preset period.

The production apparatus will be described below as an example of a glove knitting machine.

For example, when the production equipment finishes knitting one glove, the production equipment sends production task statistical information to the server, and the production task statistical information indicates that one glove is finished being produced.

For another example, when the production facility begins knitting a new glove without knitting the current glove, the production facility automatically sends to the server production task statistics indicating the production of a rejected glove and/or the degree of completion of the rejected glove.

For another example, when the production equipment finishes knitting a glove and determines that the glove is not qualified, the production equipment sends the production task statistics to the server. Wherein, whether the gloves are qualified or not can be determined by measuring by production equipment or by measuring by operators. Correspondingly, the production task statistical information is sent to the server, and the production task statistical information can be automatically completed by the production equipment or can be completed by operating the production equipment by an operator.

For another example, the production equipment may send production task statistical information to the server according to a preset period, where the production task statistical information includes the number of completed gloves, the number of defective gloves, and/or the degree of completion of defective gloves in the preset period. By the production equipment sending the production task statistical information to the server, the server can know the condition of the knitted gloves, such as the number of the qualified gloves, the number of the defective gloves and/or the number of the waste gloves, and can also count the waste yarns and/or adjust the order completion number according to the number of the defective gloves, the number of the waste gloves and/or the completion degree of the waste gloves.

Optionally, the production device may establish a local queue to store the production task statistical information, so as to prevent an unexpected situation from causing a network to be disconnected, so that part of the production task statistical information is not sent to the server. The production equipment can pack and send one piece of production task statistical information or a plurality of pieces of production task statistical information as a batch to the server according to a preset period.

In this embodiment, when the production equipment produces a product according to the production order information, the production equipment may send the production task statistical information to the server, the server receives the production task statistical information, and sends the production task statistical information to the server through the production equipment, so that the server may monitor the exact completion condition of the current order and the waste condition of the raw materials, and is beneficial to timely adjusting the completion quantity of the order and/or supplementing the raw materials.

Optionally, the production task statistical information may further include a first identification code, and the first identification code corresponds to the production task statistical information one to one.

Correspondingly, the server sends the first confirmation information to the production equipment.

When the server determines that the production task statistical information is correct, the first confirmation information comprises the first identification code. When the server determines that the production task statistical information is incorrect, the first confirmation information comprises first indication information, and the first indication information is used for indicating the production equipment to resend the production task statistical information. And when the server determines that the production task statistical information is repeated, the first confirmation information comprises second indication information, and the second indication information is used for indicating the production equipment to skip sending the production task statistical information.

Specifically, the production task statistical information sent by the production device to the server may further include a first identification code, and the first identification code corresponds to the production task statistical information one to one. Correspondingly, the server sends first confirmation information to the production equipment according to the condition of actually receiving the production task statistical information. For example, if the server receives the production task statistics and determines that the production task statistics are correct, the first confirmation information sent by the server to the production device may include the first identification code. If the server receives the production task statistical information but determines that the production task statistical information is wrong, the first confirmation information sent by the server to the production equipment may include first indication information, and the production equipment is required to resend the production task statistical information. If the server receives the production task statistical information but determines that the production task statistical information is repeated with the previously received production task statistical information, the first confirmation information sent to the production equipment by the server may include second indication information indicating that the production equipment skips sending the production task statistical information corresponding to the statistical duration, directly sends the production task statistical information corresponding to the next statistical duration, and actively discards the repeated production task statistical information.

Accordingly, after the server sends the first confirmation information to the production device at S302, the production device may perform a corresponding operation according to the content of the first confirmation information. For example, if the first confirmation information includes the first identification code, the production device may determine that the server correctly receives the production task statistical information, and then the production device may send the production task statistical information corresponding to the next statistical duration to the server. If the first confirmation information contains the second identification code, and the second identification code is different from the first identification code, the production equipment can send the production task statistical information to the server after the preset duration. By sending the production task statistical information to the server after waiting for the preset time, the situation that the confirmation information of the server is delayed due to the unstable network and the production equipment sends repeated production task statistical information to the server again can be avoided. And if the first confirmation information contains the first indication information, the production equipment immediately re-produces the task statistical information according to the server indication. And if the first confirmation information contains the first indication information, the production equipment skips sending the production task statistical information corresponding to the statistical time length according to the indication of the server and directly sends the production task statistical information corresponding to the next statistical time length.

In this embodiment, a specific implementation manner of the first identification code is not limited, and the first identification code may be any identification code capable of uniquely identifying the production task statistical information. For example, the first identification code may initially be 0, incremented by 1 every statistical duration. As another example, the first identification code may be initialized to a larger positive number, and decremented by 1 for each statistical duration.

It should be noted that the present embodiment may also relate to the following scenarios. Within a preset time after the production equipment sends the production order statistical information, if the first confirmation message sent by the server is not received all the time, the production equipment can send the production task statistical information corresponding to the statistical duration to the server again. Therefore, the situation that the production order statistical information is lost and the server does not receive the production order statistical information due to network faults and other reasons can be avoided.

In another embodiment of the present application, optionally, in another implementation manner, in S202, the data transmission between the production device and the server may include:

the production equipment sends the running state data of the production equipment to the server.

Correspondingly, the server receives the running state data sent by the production equipment.

Specifically, in the production process of the product, the production equipment sends the running state data to the server. The server monitors the production equipment according to the running state data sent by the production equipment so as to realize the unified management of the production equipment.

Optionally, the production device may send respective operation state data to the server according to a preset period.

Correspondingly, the server can receive the operation state data of the production equipment sent by the production equipment according to a preset period.

The preset period is not limited in this embodiment, and may be, for example, 5s, 30s, and the like.

The specific content of the operation state data is not limited in this embodiment, and may be any information capable of reflecting the current operation state of the production equipment. For example, the operational status data may include at least one of: current state of the production equipment, reset condition, speed mode and the like.

Wherein the current state of the production device may comprise at least one of: normal operation, normal parking, warning parking and the like of the production equipment. For example, when an alarm stop occurs, the production facility may also send an error signal to the server, which is used for the server to log and follow-up statistics of the error condition.

The reset condition is used for indicating whether the production equipment is in normal operation or in a reset state currently. The reset state means that all parts of the production equipment are restored to the preset initial positions, and the production is not carried out in the reset process. For example, when the production of a work order for a certain pattern is completed, the components of the production equipment are returned to the preset initial positions to wait for the production of the work order for the next pattern.

The speed mode is used to indicate whether the production equipment is operating at a high speed or at a slow speed. For example, in mass production, the production equipment operates at high speed. In small batches of samples, the production equipment runs slowly.

Optionally, the operation state data may further include a pattern name of the current weaving, a pattern ID of the current weaving, and other information. Taking the production equipment as an example of a glove machine, in order to facilitate weaving, the glove is divided into different weaving parts in the patterns, for example, the glove can be divided into a plurality of weaving parts such as a thumb, an index finger, a middle finger, a ring finger, a little finger, a four-fingered palm, a five-fingered palm and an elastic band, the four-fingered palm is a palm part connected with the index finger, the middle finger, the ring finger and the little finger, the five-fingered palm is a palm part connected with all the fingers, and the elastic band is a wrist part. Each knitting position has its knitting line number, and each line has a corresponding line number. Thus, the operating state data may also include information of the current knitting location, the total number of rows of the current knitting location, the current row number, etc.

In another embodiment of the present application, optionally, in another implementation manner, in S202, the data transmission between the production device and the server may include:

and the server sends a control instruction to the production equipment.

Correspondingly, the production equipment receives the control instruction sent by the server.

Specifically, the server may directly issue a control command to a certain production device in the local area network. The production equipment executes corresponding operation according to the control instruction sent by the server, so that the server can control the production equipment.

Alternatively, the control command may be a stop command for the production facility. By sending the parking instruction, the server can control the production equipment to stop in batches when the production task is about to be completed, so that the number of finished products can be controlled more accurately, and the finished products are prevented from exceeding orders and being wasted.

In another embodiment of the present application, referring to fig. 4, optionally, in another implementation manner, in S202, the data transmission between the production device and the server may include:

s401, the production equipment sends a pattern uploading request to a server.

The pattern uploading request comprises pattern data.

Correspondingly, the server receives the pattern uploading request sent by the production equipment.

Specifically, the production equipment can directly generate pattern data of the product. After the pattern data are generated by the production equipment, a pattern uploading request can be sent to the server, and the pattern uploading request comprises the pattern data which need to be uploaded currently.

S402, the server sends second confirmation information to the production equipment.

Wherein the second confirmation information includes the number corresponding to the pattern data in the server.

Correspondingly, the production equipment receives the second confirmation information sent by the server.

Specifically, after receiving the pattern data, the server may number the pattern data, so that the server may be used by all production devices in the lan in a manner of issuing production task information.

Alternatively, after receiving the pattern data transmitted from the production device, the server may determine whether the name of the pattern overlaps with the name of the pattern already existing in the server. When the name of the pattern is duplicated with the name of the pattern already in the server, the server may rename the received pattern. Alternatively, when the name of the pattern overlaps with a name of an existing pattern in the server, the server may update pattern data of the existing pattern whose name overlaps in the server using the received pattern data.

In this embodiment, the pattern upload request server is sent to the server through the production equipment, and the server sends the second confirmation information to the production equipment, so that pattern data generated on any production equipment in the local area network can be uploaded to the server and uniformly managed by the server.

Optionally, the indicia upload request may further include a third identification code.

And the third identification codes correspond to the pattern uploading requests one by one.

Accordingly, the second determination information further includes a third identification code.

In this embodiment, after the pattern data is generated by the production equipment, the production equipment sends a pattern uploading request to the server, where the pattern uploading request includes not only the pattern data but also the third identification codes corresponding to the pattern uploading request one by one. When the server receives the pattern uploading request, the server numbers the pattern data and sends second confirmation information to the production equipment, wherein the second confirmation information not only comprises the number corresponding to the pattern data in the server, but also comprises a third identification code. Through the third identification code, the production equipment can determine which pattern has been successfully uploaded, so that repeated uploading or missing uploading of some pattern data is avoided.

In S202, various implementations of data transmission between the production device and the server may be combined with each other, which is not limited in the present application.
