The primary objective of this research endeavor was to devise an improved workplace design tailored to the demands of a digital factory environment. With the overarching aim of enhancing efficiency and productivity, a comprehensive proposal was formulated to improve layout configurations within the designated enterprise. The key focus lies in minimizing material transit across individual workstations, thereby mitigating potential bottlenecks and streamlining operations. Employing a structured workplace research framework, this study delved into material flow analysis techniques, augmented by the utilization of visTABLE software. While visTABLE served solely to visualize the work environment effectively, it played a crucial role in validating proposed solutions. Notably, the investigation yielded a discernible reduction in beam production time, marking a significant improvement of 10 min. These findings underscored the efficacy of the proposed solutions in addressing specific operational challenges faced by the company. Furthermore, this study facilitated a deeper understanding and visualization of the processes intrinsic to the digital factory environment. Elucidating workflow procedures at the workplace enabled stakeholders to identify areas for further improvement and refinement. In doing so, the research contributed to the overall efficiency and effectiveness of operations within the digital factory, paving the way for continued improvement and innovation in the field.

This paper presents a novel approach to developing fully automated intelligent control systems for use within production-based organizations, with a specific focus on advancing research into intelligent production systems. This analysis underscores a prevailing deficiency in control operations preceding assembly, where single-purpose control machines are commonly utilized, thus presenting inherent limitations. Conversely, while accurate multipurpose measurement centers exist, they often fail to deliver comprehensive quality control for manufactured parts due to cost and time constraints associated with the measuring process. The primary aim in this study was to develop an intelligent modular control system capable of overseeing the production of diverse components effectively. The modular intelligent control system is designed to meticulously monitor the quality of each module during the pre-assembly phase. By integrating sophisticated sensors, diagnostic tools, and intelligent control mechanisms, this system ensures precise control over module production processes. It facilitates the monitoring of multiple parameters and critical quality features, while integrated sensors and diagnostic methods promptly identify discrepancies and inaccuracies, enabling the swift diagnosis of issues within specific modules. The system’s intelligent control algorithms optimize production processes and ensure synchronization among individual modules, thereby ensuring consistent quality and performance. Notably, the implementation of this solution reduces inspection time by an average of 40 to 60% compared to manual inspection methods. Moreover, the system enables the comprehensive archiving of measurement data, eliminating the substantial error rates introduced by human involvement in the inspection process. Furthermore, the system enhances overall project efficiency, predictability, and safety, while allowing for rapid adjustments in order to meet standards and requirements. This innovative approach represents a significant advancement in intelligent control systems for use in production organizations, offering substantial benefits in terms of efficiency, accuracy, and adaptability.

This paper addresses the approach of fully automated intelligent control systems in production organizations, focusing on intelligent production systems research. The overview highlights a gap in control operations ahead of assembly as single-purpose control machines are frequently employed, which is precisely their drawback. Conversely, there are accurate multipurpose measurement centers that do not provide total quality control over the manufactured parts because of the cost and length of the measuring procedure. The study's primary objective was to create an intelligent modular control system, whose concept enables it to control various components. The purpose of the modular intelligent control system is to keep an eye on each module's quality during the pre-assembly phase. This system ensures exact control over the production process of modules by integrating sophisticated sensors, diagnostic tools, and intelligent control mechanisms. The technology makes it possible to monitor several parameters and important quality features. Integrated sensors and diagnostic technologies identify possible inaccuracies and disparities, guaranteeing prompt diagnosis of issues in specific modules. The system's intelligent control algorithms streamline the production process and guarantee synchronization between individual modules to achieve consistent quality and performance. One advantage of implementing the solution is that, on average, inspection time is reduced by 40 to 60% as compared to the prior manual inspection approach. In addition, full measurement data archiving was made available, and finally, the human element—which introduced a substantial error rate into this process—was removed. This system also helps to increase the project's overall efficiency, predictability, and safety while allowing for quick adjustments by standards and requirements.

The main purpose of this study was to design a workplace in the conditions of a digital factory. The goal of this study is to compile a proposal for improving the layout solution in the selected enterprise to reduce material flows between individual workplaces. In addition, the workplace research study uses methods of material flow analysis with the application of visTABLE software support, which serves as a tool for designing production processes. The main result of the study was the reduction of the production time of the beam by 10 minutes and the creation of proposals for solutions for the company. The study helped with the visualization of processes within the digital factory to simplify and clarify processes at the workplace.
