Huawei inks MoU with Festo for Smart Manufacturing
By MYBRANDBOOK
Huawei has signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with Festo to jointly explore the 5G network application of manufacturing and to promote digital transformation of the manufacturing industry with 5G Slicing Technology.
This MoU is based on 5G Cloud Robotics to test the Robot-as-a-Service (RaaS) concept, which is part of the manufacturing digital transformation that supports the shift from mass production to mass customizing and offers value-based services in smart factories. According to this concept, computation is moved from the robot to the fabrication cloud. Due to the strong requirements of the low-latency control loop, 5G radio technology must be used to link both cloud and robot.
The 5G Cloud Robot project is based on a moving robot platform that consists of a handling apparatus (robot arm) with six degrees of freedom. The 5G-based link utilizes 5G slicing network principles. An uRLLC (Ultra Reliable and Low Latency Communications) slice is used to fulfil the strong real-time and high reliability requirements of the closed control loop. 5G slicing technology can guarantee service SLA to meet diversified business requirements, which can also enable dynamic engineering solutions on demand tailored with QoS according to dynamically assigned safety levels.
“Mobile communications networks are developing and evolving rapidly, and will gradually penetrate a variety of vertical industries,” said Yang Chaobin, President, Huawei’s 5G Network Product Line. “5G will meet the diversified network needs of industry, enabling more vertical industry applications with end-to-end slicing solutions. Huawei, as a leading provider of wireless network solutions, will work with vertical industries to explore new 5G applications and create greater value. Our cooperation with Festo will promote development of an intelligent manufacturing industry.”
