Methods and systems for intelligent data collection for a production line

Fuente: Wipo "Sensorization"
A monitoring system for data collection related to a production line of an industrial environment includes a data storage structured to store a plurality of data collection templates, each of the plurality of data collection templates comprising a data collection routine; a data collector structured to interpret a plurality of detection values that correspond to a plurality of input channels, wherein the plurality of detection values are obtained according to a data collection routine corresponding to a selected one of the plurality of data collection templates; wherein the data storage is further structured to store at least a portion of the plurality of detection values; a data analysis circuit structured to interpret at least a subset of the detection values to determine a state value corresponding to one of a process or a component of the production line; and an expert system circuit structured to perform a data collection modification by performing one of: adjusting the data collection routine corresponding to the selected one of the plurality of data collection templates; or selecting a different one of the plurality of data collection templates.
