Abstract
A device may detect a problem with one machine in a production line comprising a set of disparate machines to yield a detected problem. A device may, based on the detected problem, determine, via an artificial intelligence model or rule chain and for a respective machine on the production line, a respective correct degraded mode for the respective machine in order to maintain a constant and a degraded production line output. A device may issue a series of commands such that a respective machine adjusts to the respective correct degraded mode and the production line operates to produce the degraded production line output.
Claims21
A method comprising:
- detecting a problem with one machine in a production line comprising a set of disparate machines to yield a detected problem;
- based on the detected problem, determine, via an artificial intelligence model or rule chain and for a respective machine on the production line, a respective correct degraded mode for the respective machine in order to maintain a constant and a degraded production line output;
- and
- issuing a series of commands, either automatically or through guided manual intervention, such that a respective machine adjusts to the respective correct degraded mode and the production line operates to produce the degraded production line output.
A system comprising:
- a production line comprising a set of disparate machines;
- a processor;
- and
- a computer-readable storage device storing instructions which, when executed by the processor, cause the processor to be configured to:
- detect a problem with one machine in the production line to yield a detected problem;
- based on the detected problem, determine, via an artificial intelligence model or rule chain and for a respective machine on the production line, a respective correct degraded mode for the respective machine in order to maintain a constant and a degraded production line output;
- and
- issue a series of commands, either automatically or through guided manual intervention, such that the respective machine adjusts to the respective correct degraded mode and the production line operates to produce the degraded production line output.
A computer-readable storage medium storing instructions which, when executed by at least one processor, cause the at least one processor to be configured to:
- detect a problem with one machine in a production line to yield a detected problem;
- based on the detected problem, determine, via an artificial intelligence model and for a respective machine on the production line, a respective correct degraded mode for the respective machine in order to maintain a constant and a degraded production line output;
- and
- issue a series of commands such that the respective machine adjusts to the respective correct degraded mode and the production line operates to produce the degraded production line output.
