Integración End-to-End a través del modelo del producto 4.0

Digitization is a clear need in the industrial environment for all companies seeking to move towards Industry 4.0. This paper presents a proposal for the digitization of the first phase of the product lifecycle corresponding to the design and manufacture in the company environment, which allows integration with suppliers and customers. This approach adopts the standards proposed in the RAMI 4.0 model and the I4.0 component model. The technological solution used in the prototype uses web services with API REST and distributed XML databases. This prototype has been used in a case study to show the interoperability of applications throughout the product lifecycle. Specifically, it shows the exchange of information between the scheduler and the product model.
