Abstract
Systems and methods for managing an additive manufacturing production line include an additive manufacturing machine having a first sensor and an auxiliary equipment having a second sensor. A server includes security protocols, a workflow module, an industrial Internet of things (IIoT) module and a machine learning module. The workflow module, IIoT module, machine learning module, additive manufacturing machine and auxiliary equipment are in communication with each other using the security protocols. The machine learning module processes feedback from the first sensor and the second sensor to control operation of the additive manufacturing machine through the workflow module and the IIoT module.
