- Figure i shows a schematic representation of an exemplary embodiment of a method according to the invention for the production of an electrical switchgear.
- the method can be implemented completely in software apart from the processing machines i, and can therefore be designed as a computer-implemented method.
- a planning software 100 for example the commercially available Eplan Pro Panel software for 2D and 3D planning in switchgear and control construction, can be used to create a computer-protected, comprehensive planning of an electrical switchgear or control system in a partially automated manner.
- the engineering data generated in this way can be provided as AutomationML data (AML data) and stored, for example, in a cloud 200, such as a decentralized server, for remote access. This means that the planning data can be accessed centrally and a production order can be created locally independently of the manufacture of the switchgear.
- AML data AutomationML data
- the AML data also includes, in particular, geometric data of the electrical switchgear to be produced.
- This can be geometric data relating to the electrical components of the electrical switchgear to be produced.
- the geometric data can also contain information relating to the wiring, for example cable lengths, cable assemblies, laying routes and the like.
- the geometric data can have air conditioning information, for example relating to a planned switch cabinet air conditioning infrastructure, an air duct, including assembly data.
- the geometric data can mechanical processing of a control cabinet housing, a flat part, a mounting plate or the like, for example the introduction of borehole patterns for the assembly of top-hat rails and components, or breakouts for the assembly of filter fans and the like.
- This geometric data which is preferably provided as ALM data, can be used to use a data processing system 300 to determine the necessary processing steps for producing the electrical switchgear or control system.
- the data processing system 300 has access to the cloud 200. The determination can in particular include the extraction of processing data from the geometric data or AML data.
- the data processing system 300 is not limited to any particular embodiments and can be cloud-based (software as a service) or implemented on a local server.
- the extracted data can be accessed independently of location and a production order can be created for it.
- the data can be analyzed decentrally and suitable processing processes can be determined from it.
- processing data for example for the machining or laser-assisted introduction of cutouts, borehole images and the like
- assembly data for example in relation to the robot-assisted positioning and assembly of switch cabinet components
- wiring information for the preferably fully automated wiring of the components including cable laying routes, Cable end feed routes related to components, as well as quality assurance measures, such as determining a pull-off strength of manufactured electrical wiring.
- these processing steps can be assigned to at least one of several processing machines which are connected to a data interface with the data processing system.
- the assignment can be made using at least one selection criterion.
- the selection criterion can be, for example, the utilization of the processing machine in question and preferably a validation and an actual validation.
- can validation it is determined whether the processing machine in question is fundamentally, ie technically and functionally, capable of carrying out the required processing steps.
- a breakout can be produced with a metal-cutting processing machine or with a laser processing system.
- the opening cannot be produced with a wiring robot which, in addition to the aforementioned processing machines and a large number of processing machines required in switchgear and control system construction, is connected in a network of processing machines to the data processing system for central control.
- the actual validation can include determining on a processing machine, which has an interchangeable tool, for example, whether the processing machine in question has set up a suitable tool at the moment of the assignment and/or the execution of the processing step, so that a changeover to another Tool is not required and set-up times can be eliminated.
- the actual validation can lead to the processing step being assigned to an alternative processing machine in the case of a positively determined can validation, a negative actual validation, for which not only the can validation, but also the actual validation is positively decided.
- the method can also include a quality check to the effect that the processing machines record the process sequences they carry out, including movement sequences and other processing sequences, and transmit a corresponding log data record to the data processing system, in which the log data record is stored for quality assurance and can be called up as required.
- the new processing machine registers itself in the system, for example the data processing system communicates which technical-functional range of functions it includes and, if applicable, with which ones Type of machine data they can be controlled so that the central data processing system for the assignment of the processing steps can use the range of functions of the machines as a selection criterion and the conditioning of the machine data can provide suitable.
- the processing steps and the processing orders derived from them are split, so that several partial orders can be distributed to different processing machines.
- the division of the order can in turn depend on various selection criteria, for example on the set-up tool of the different processing machines, with optimization being able to be achieved in such a way that, if possible, the respective tool of the two processing machines does not have to be converted in order to carry out the order.
- the processing machine After the processing machine has been assigned the processing step, it carries out an actual validation.
- the actual validation can also include a check for material availability, for example if the processing machine is a component placement system or a wiring robot.
- the processing step or the order derived from it can be sent back to the data processing system.
- the order or the processing step can either be modified manually in order to achieve automated processing of the processing step by at least one of the processing machines.
- the processing step can also be provided for reallocation to an alternative processing machine.
- the status of all processing steps or at least a subset of these can be monitored continuously or periodically to determine whether the processing job was successfully assigned to a processing machine and whether the job was properly executed by the processing machine, including any error log generated by the processing machine.
- the log can document the movement sequences and processing sequences of the processing machine.
- this can be, for example, drilled hole patterns and eruptions that corresponding borehole images and outbreaks in the geometric data are compared and, if necessary, a sufficient or exact match is acknowledged.
- this can include proper wiring according to a wiring plan of the planning data, including compliance with a specified routing, contacting, a pull test, a resistance test, etc.
