Digital Twin for the Industrial Automation 4.0 on the Hydraulic Cylinder Test Rig)

A digital twin is a virtual representation that serves as the real-time digital counterpart of a physical object or process. Though the concept originated earlier the first practical definition of digital twin originated from NASA in an attempt to improve physical model simulation of spacecraft in 2010. In this project, you will have to work in the existing Hydraulic Cylinder Test Rig in the ARAtronics Lab as Mechatronics System that we need to build a digital twin for it and also we are looking to build an Augmented Reality for the Machine (AR) to help in the maintenance and assembly process.
Project Description
Conceptional Design of Portable Motor Drive Test Stand as an application for the Industry 4.0 (Sponsored by Ezz Steel)

Motor Drives is the middle point (interface) control between the control system and motor, which provides the user/system with a speed control on the motor to match the needs of certain plant conditions. The need to develop an online portable test rig for motor drives is very essential for direct setting and adjustment repaired motor drive to ensure its performance and prevent any abnormal stoppage at the plant.

Conceptional Design of On-line Electro-Hydraulic Test Rig for pumps as an application for the Industry 4.0 - Electrical part (Sponsored by Ezz Steel)

The sudden trips of the Main Control Center (MCC) units controlling (driving) the main industrial hydraulic pumps (DR pressure controlled) of Rolling Mill Stands of a Flat steel plant (FSD) are related to improper setting of these pumps. The need to develop an online portable test rig is very essential for direct setting and adjustment of hydraulic pumps pressure control valve as well as for judgement of pumps conditions needed to overhauled (repaired) to save time and effort and take the right decision.
