Popis: | The adoption of digital manufacturing in small to medium enterprises (SMEs) in the manufacturing sector in the UK is low, yet these technologies offer significant promise to boost productivity. Two major causes of this lack of uptake is the high upfront cost of digital technologies, and the skill gap preventing understanding and implementation. This paper describes the development of software wrappers to facilitate the simple and robust use of a range of sensors and data sources. These form part of a common architecture for data acquisition in the Digital Manufacturing on a Shoestring project. We explain the existing Shoestring demonstrator architecture, and discuss how a ‘crash-only’ microservices architecture would improve fault tolerance and adaptability of the system. |
