In the fourth industrial revolution era, various commercial smart platforms for smart system implementation are being developed and serviced. However, since most of the smart platforms have been developed for general purposes, they are difficult to apply / utilize because they cannot satisfy the requirements of real-time data management, data visualization and data storage of smart factory system. In this paper, we implemented an open source based smart manufacturing big data platform that can manage highly efficient / reliable data integration for the diagnosis diagnostic system of manufacturing robots.

In manufacturing and semiconductor industries, transfer robots increase productivity through accurate and continuous work. Due to the nature of the semiconductor process, there are environments where humans cannot intervene to maintain internal temperature and humidity in a clean room. So, transport robots take responsibility over humans. In such an environment where the manpower of the process is cutting down, the lack of maintenance and management technology of the machine may adversely affect the production, and that's why it is necessary to develop a technology for the machine failure diagnosis system. Therefore, this paper tries to identify various causes of failure of transport robots that are widely used in semiconductor automation, and the Prognostics and Health Management (PHM) method is considered for determining and predicting the process of failures. The robot mainly fails in the driving unit due to long-term repetitive motion, and the core components of the driving unit are motors and gear reducer. A simulation drive unit was manufactured and tested around this component and then applied to 6-axis vertical multi-joint robots used in actual industrial sites. Vibration data was collected for each cause of failure of the robot, and then the collected data was processed through signal processing and frequency analysis. The processed data can determine the fault of the robot by utilizing machine learning algorithms such as SVM (Support Vector Machine) and KNN (K-Nearest Neighbor). As a result, the PHM environment was built based on machine learning algorithms using SVM and KNN, confirming that failure prediction was partially possible.

본 논문에서는 인공신경망(Artificial Neural Network) 모델 중, 시계열 데이터의 변환을 위한 모델인 Seq2Seq(Sequence to Sequence) 모델을 이용한 산업용 로봇 고장 예지 기술에 대하여 제안한다. 제안 방법은 고장 예지를 위한 추가적인 센서의 부착 없이 로봇 자체적으로 측정 가능한 관절 별 전류와 각도 값을 데이터로 사용하였고, 측정된 데이터를 모델이 학습할 수 있도록 전처리한 후, Seq2Seq 모델을 통해 전류를 각도로 변환하도록 지도 학습 하였다. 고장 진단을 위한 이상 정도(Abnormal degree)는 예측 각도와 실제 각도 간의 단위시간 동안의 RMSE(Root Mean Squared Error)를 사용하였다. 제안 방법의 성능평가는 로봇의 정상 및 결함 조건을 달리한 상태에서 측정한 테스트 데이터를 이용하여 수행되었고 이상 정도가 임계값 넘어가면 고장으로 분류하게 하여, 실험으로부터 96.67% 고장 진단 정확도를 보였다. 제안 방법은 별도의 추가적인 센서 없이 고장 예지 수행이 가능하다는 장점이 있으며, 로봇에 대한 깊은 전문지식을 요구하지 않으면서 수행할 수 있는 방법으로 높은 진단 성능과 효용성을 실험으로부터 확인하였다.
