Patent ID: 11880190

Abstract:
Provided is a deployment platform for deployment of an industrial application on an edge computing device, ECD, connected to the controller of a machine tool, MT, the deployment platform including a model management component, MMC, adapted to instantiate a generic machine tool model, GMTM, stored in a memory to provide a machine instance model, MIM, of the respective machine tool, MT, on the basis of a machine tool data report, MTDR, received by the model management component, MMC, from the edge computing device, ECD, of the respective machine tool, MT, and further adapted to convert generic data requirements, gR, of a generic industrial application into machine tool specific requirements, mtsR, using the machine instance model, MIM, of the respective machine tool, MT, wherein an instantiated industrial application for the machine tool, MT, is provided by instantiating the generic industrial application by extending its configuration data with machine tool specific requirements.
