This Project was selected from the ARM Institute’s 23-01 Technology Project Call that addressed the following topic areas:

  • Automated Robotic Task Planning
  • Multi-Robot, Multi-Human Collaboration, Task Sharing & Task Allocation
  • Safe and Scalable Manufacturing of Energetics
  • Artificial Intelligence (AI) in Robotics for Manufacturing
  • Discovery Workshops and Market Studies

Project Team:

Wichita State University’s National Institute for Aviation Research (Principal Investigator), Siemens Corporation, Spirit AeroSystems

Topic Areas Addressed:

Discovery Workshops and Market Studies

Description: 

Complex manufacturing systems can have many costs, errors, and hazards that may not be apparent in the design phase alone. Simulating systems by using digital/virtual twins allows for system testing in a digital environment prior to installation, enabling more successful installs and better “day one” experiences. This project will create a report detailing the framework for the creation of a virtual twin for commissioning, and all the steps involved in its development. The framework package will contain the data and considerations needed to develop a full digital twin.
