"A digital shadow approach for enhancing process monitoring in wire arc" by Haochen Mu, Fengyang He et al.
With the development of Industry 4.0 and smart manufacturing, improving production automation, intelligence, and digitalization has become a research trend in the Wire Arc Additive Manufacturing (WAAM) field. This study introduces a digital shadow that aims to improve the adaptiveness and dimensionality of monitoring systems in WAAM. Three sensors are used in the digital shadow: a welding electric signal sensor, a camera, and a laser profilometer to collect welding current and voltage data, image data, and point cloud data. The collected multi-scaled data are time and spatially synchronized by...
