I. INTRODUCTION
Digital technologies are the most powerful allies in implementation of IIoT, as they can help them increase automation, reduce
errors, enhance their proactivity, streamline their business operations, improve their processes knowledge intensive, reduce costs,
increase their smartness and overall do more with less. Moreover, the technology acceleration trends offer them with a host of
opportunities for innovating in their processes and changing their operations in a way that results not only in marginal productivity
improvements, but also in a disruptive paradigm shift in their operations. The term “industry 4.0” refers to the Fourth Industrial
Revolution. The application of information technology to all supply chain activities is breaking the existing traditional path and
proclaiming the start of new industrial age and many calls it the Fourth Industrial Revolution. In 2011, the expression “Industry 4.0”
was coined in Germany with regard to the digital transformation in the manufacturing industry. This new industrial hypothesis is
based on individualized production, horizontal integration in collaborative networks, and integration of the supply chain [1].
The “official” beginning of what is called ‘Fourth industrial revolution’, which is built on the deployment and use of ‘Cyber-
Physical Systems’ (CPS) in industrial plants as means of boosting the digitization, automation, and intelligence of industrial
processes. CPS systems enable the connection between the physical world of machines, industrial automation devices and
‘Operational Technology’ (OT), with the world of computers, cloud data technologies and ‘Information Technology’ (IT). Industry
4.0 advocates the seamless connection of machines and physical devices with the IT infrastructure, as means of completely
digitizing industrial processes.
Industrial organizations nowadays are employing preventive maintenance to avoid the consequences of unplanned downtime and
unscheduled maintenance. That’s the reason to replace tools and parts, at regular intervals before their estimated End of Life (EoL).
Even though preventive maintenance techniques are effective than reactive maintenance, they are still far from delivering best
possible Overall Equipment Efficiency (OEE), as they tend to perform maintenance earlier than required. as a means of optimizing
OEE, minimizing unscheduled downtimes and scheduling maintenance and repairs at the best point in time [2].

A. Business Intelligence in Industry 4.0


Business intelligence (BI) is a broad concept including the collection, integration, analysis, and visualization of organizational data
to support and improve the decision-making process. The phases of a BI initiative constitute of several phases. First, data is
collected. Then, it is ‘Extracted, Processed, and Loaded’ (ETL) into the multidimensional database, usually a Data Warehouse,
where it can be analysed and presented. Data presentation includes reports and interactive data discovery, alerts and operational
graphical user interface or dashboards.

Volume 9 Issue XII Dec 2021- Available at www.ijraset.com

These phases rely on a technical architecture, often including a data warehouse. On the other end, the technological improvements
and new Cyber-Physical Systems offer new BI capabilities, such as forecasting and adaptive indicators which were not previously
measurable. They can also facilitate and reduce the cost of real-time operational dashboards, a technology previously available but
complex and cost prohibitive [3].

B. Microsoft PowerBI
One of the most widely used BI tools on the market is Microsoft Power BI. This tool allows data unification from many sources and
the creation of interactive and immersive dashboards and reports that provide actionable insights on business results. It is expected
that the information available in these reports can assist decision-making processes, as well as improving the processes of sharing
and communicating it among all authorized members of an organization. It is expected that users will not only be able to consult the
information provided by the Power BI reports, but also to be able to create additional reports (from the data sets that have already
been processed and published in the Power BI Service) that better respond to the specific and individual needs of their role in the
company. This way, it is possible to keep information standardization, as all employees are using the same data sources that are
available in the Power BI Service [4].

C. Data Analytics using PowerBI


Power BI brings the advanced data analytics to allow users to create Analytical models from their data, enabling organizations to
make data-based decisions across all aspects of their business. Using Azure Machine Learning Studio, users can quickly create data
models by dragging, dropping, and connecting data modules. Power BI then allows users to visualize the results of their machine
learning algorithm [5]. ‘Forecasting’ in Power View utilizes built-in ‘Linear regression’ models using exponential smoothing to
automatically detect seasonality in the data to provide forecast results from a series of data thus giving the forecasted result of future
developments by analysing the historical data of the Machine. User can select the range of forecasted results by selecting the
‘forecasting length’ and ‘seasonality’ [6].

D. Overall Equipment Effectiveness (OEE)


The overall equipment effectiveness indicates how good the equipment is being used. OEE has emerged as the target KPI for most
manufacturing industries because it considers three key indicators:
1) Availability: Percentage of time that an equipment can operate.
2) Quality: Percentage of good, produced parts.
3) Performance: Percentage of maximum operation speed used [7].
Overall Equipment Effectiveness can be calculated as follows:
OEE = Availability * Quality*Performance

E. Process Monitoring
Process monitoring is not intended to be automatic feed control. It is useful for quantifying the unusual operation in live condition.
The intention of process monitoring is to find any unusual or infrequent error in the process and to make adjustment for the above
problem manually or create an automatic response to above problem. Automatic feed control is applied continuously by computer
system to make a short-term temporary change to system and make it the desired output. The process monitoring is often called
‘Statistical Process Control’ (SPC) [8]. Monitoring charts also known as control chart are used to detect and show the unusual or
infrequent error in the process. It will display one property which will measure the machining process and show in against time
chart or in sequence order. From live data, any changes or abnormality can be detected by the graph obtained through monitoring
charts [9]. In research paper based on work done by Wang. L. Giao, R., & Ragai, I. (2014, June), proposed a Cyber-Physical System
where the machine can be controlled and accessed through remotely including the CNC machine and robots. This is achieved using
concept of data flow in CPS through sensor data, 3D models and camera in real time. It includes process monitoring, machining, and
assembly in decentralized environment. For its implementation, process have been divided into factory network, internet, and web
service (client). Most of work is done in Internet section, where all data have been collected and analysed and made a logic for
different operation output from sensors [10].
In the research paper titled ‘Decision Support System for the Industry 4.0 Environment: Design and Development of a Business
Intelligence Tool’ published by Rodrigo Marques, Ana Moura, Leonor Teixeira, there emerged a case study with the objective of
consolidating a set of supply chain indicators into a system that allows improving the management and transmission of information

and, consequently, improving the decision-making process. For this purpose, they created a Business Intelligence platform using
Microsoft Power BI, whose development process and achieved results are described in the paper. By implementing the developed
system based on Power BI, it was possible to integrate an extended set of indicators from Super Bock Group's supply chain into a
single central repository or database. Based on the Super Bock group’s supply chain database the authors developed a multi-page
layout of dashboard using PowerBI tool and can develop a report from the developed BI tool that indicated the variation in the Key
Performance indicators (KPI). This multi-page layout is intended to provide a tree of indicators that contains only the most relevant
and necessary metrics from the group management point of view. This allows users to have an immediate perception of what points
require special attention The research paper concludes that, by considering that Power BI enabled the creation of reports that contain
the main KPIs of the entire group, the supply chain system has improved the quality and speed of decision-making. This is because
the knowledge of the organization's historical and status contributes strongly to projecting its future [4].
Fisnik Doko, Igor Miskovski the authors of the conference paper titled ‘Advanced analytics of Big Data using Power BI: Credit
Registry Use Case’ utilized Microsoft PowerBI and its Predictive analytics for Analysing and visualizing large volumes of data in
financial services their work aims to provide use case of effective implementation of Power BI tools in banking, more specifically in
Credit Registry database, using the methodology of Big Data analytics and the features of Power BI tool. The prediction is
integrated in Power BI and uses linear regression, which can be additionally configured [11].
There is scarcely few information regarding usage of Microsoft PowerBI in advanced analytics in the fields of Manufacturing
Industrial sectors. As the PowerBI can collect and organize the data without the hinderance of the source producing it and size of the
data produced the BI tool can accept the data in any format and from most of the cloud sources maintained by all the global
Industrial sectors, such a possibility encompasses the efficiency of implementation of PowerBI into Manufacturing industries.

II. METHODOLOGY AND EXPERIMENTAL WORK


A. Implementation of data into PowerBI for design and development of IIoT dashboard for Overall Equipment Effectiveness
monitoring of CNC machine tools
Microsoft Power BI tool comprises of two main elements - the Power BI Desktop, the Power BI Service(website), which collaborate
to allow the creation, visualization, interaction and sharing of data across various types of devices. The Power BI Desktop imports
and processes various data sources to create reports that are later published on the Power BI Service. This is a cloud service that
permits the storage, visualization, sharing and creation of new data visualizations from the reports already published. Finally, Power
BI Mobile allows users to gain access to and interact with the reports on their mobile devices. The overall process is illustrated in
Fig 2.1 («Microsoft Power BI Guided Learning», 2020).
Considering that the objective of this work is the creation of a BI system that allows the uniformization of different data files to
enable their treatment and subsequent information production (KPIs) to support the decision-making process, the focus of this
section is:
1) Data preparation: Data files import and data classification.
2) Data modelling: Establishing connections between data tables and creating calculated measure.
3) Data visualization creation (i.e., data reports)
4) Data reports validation

B. OEE Monitoring Module


1) Data Acquisition: Data acquisition for OEE Module can be accessed by data fetched from the CNC controller through OPCUA
which gives the required information about machine Power ON time, Working time, Part program, and monitoring ‘Effective
work time’ (availability). Typically, to measure machine’s operating time, compared to its planned production time (planned
production time is equal to scheduled work shifts minus planned stops) this approach offers a good insight into the utilization
rate of the equipment and stop reasons, e.g., losses during loading, unloading, transporting material, cleaning, technical stops,
breaks, organizational issues.the user can also track when the machine’s working status by connecting the system to any
electrical circuit that can give the time in which the machine is drawing more power and that leads to working time and low
current flow indicates idle time of machine (break time and losses) that has current going through during the processing cycle.
2) Data Classification and data Processing for OEE Monitoring Module: The numerous data obtained from data acquisition
system the data is classified based on the results obtained from the following Experimental calculations of different components
of OEE
The overall equipment effectiveness can be calculated as follows:
OEE = AVAILABILITY * PERFORMANCE * QUALITY RATE

a) Availability: Availability is the ratio of Operating Time to Planned Production time. It denotes the percentage of schedule time
that the machine is available to operate. It considers Down Time Losses.
Availability = (available time – unplanned downtime) / (available time)
Availability time = Total Available time – Planned downtime

Planned downtime: excess capacity, planned breaks, planned maintenance, communication break, and team meetings.
Unplanned downtime: breakdowns, setup and adjustment, late material delivery, operator availability.

b) Performance: Performance is calculated using the following equation


Performance = (Total Production parts / Operating time) / Idle run rate
Operating time = Available time – Unplanned downtime
Idle run rate = number of parts per minute

c) Quality Rate: Quality rate is calculated using the following equation:


Quality rate = (Total Produced parts – Defective parts) / (Total Produced parts)

The data table view in PowerBI of processed data of OEE and its components can be seen in Fig 2.2

3) Implementation of Data Analytics using PowerBI: After classification and processing data in PowerBI data analytics is applied
and using ‘Forecasting’ feature of PowerBI and the resulting values forecasted and the path that OEE is going to trace can be
visualized in a line graph as seen in Fig 2.3.

4) Development of OEE Monitoring Module in Dashboard Showing Results from Analysis: OEE Module is developed in
dashboard using PowerBI based on data Acquired and data processed. The Module consists of OEE components that are
discussed in previous section and OEE losses along with a line graph displaying the data analytical results. This can be seen in
Fig 2.3.

III. RESULTS AND DISCUSSION


A. Development of IIoT Dashboard for Monitoring OEE Monitoring of CNC Machine Tools
Dashboard has been developed using PowerBI and historical data of ‘Typical CNC machining centre’ and the Fig 3.1 illustrates the
process.
1) Data Acquisition: The data is collected CNC controllers through OPCUA. Data collected from the Cloud database constitutes
of 21 days of working and production data of ‘Typical Machining center’ and data collected is in Excel (.csv or .xlsx) format.
The dumped data from cloud platforms is often called ‘raw data’ which is imported into PowerBI desktop.

Figure 3.1: Development of Dashboard


2) Data Processing and Modelling: The data has been classified and processed using ‘Query Editor’ as per the requirement to
develop a data modelling architecture, all this process until data classification and processing is done in ‘Transform Data’
section in ‘Query Editor’ of PowerBI desktop. After Processing the data Relationship has been developed in a manner such that
all the data are linked with a certain chain of relations that helps to analyze the effect of one on another.

3) Implementation of Data Analytics: After the relationship has been built the next step taken is implementation of ‘Advanced
analytics’ to the processed data. One such improvement is based on ‘Linear Regression’ model that’s inbuilt into a special
feature in PowerBI called ‘Forecasting’ in advanced analytics section of the visualization part of Power BI, Forecasting
analyzes the data and relationships between the different data imported into PowerBI and forecasts the results of future
developments that may help the user understand the path within which machine is proceeding, the forecasted results increases
the capability of implementing maintenance that can improve current state of Machine. The Working status of the machine is
visualized by Creating Monitoring and Performance charts and graphs of different design in Microsoft PowerBI Desktop. The
Advanced visualizations constitutes of various features along with different analyzing capabilities that results is creating reports
which enumerates the state of OEE as a Key Performance Indicator (KPI) in the Dashboard that is being developed.
4) Development of Dashboard with visual Analytics: After creating the visualizations in PowerBI desktop it is then ‘Published’
into PowerBI service to create a dashboard with the modelized data and reformed Visual analytics. After publishing the user
who created the workspace can give permissions to the persons who can alter the data in the dashboard and this is limited to
confidential users whereas in general the dashboard can be shared with anyone by the organization members that are part of the
workspace also but, they cannot mess with the data as there will be no option provided to them and a person who is restricted to
only use dashboard can see the visualizations and create a reports out of available information on the screen.

B. The Components of Dashboard


Machine Monitoring modules are created in PowerBI Desktop application and hosted on the PowerBI Service webserver where
reports can be generated and shared. According to the specification, Dashboard have been built to categorize and analyse the whole
data and highlight the KPI of each module. Mainly, there are ‘three web pages/tabs’ developed in the dashboard with areas called
‘Tiles’ that consists of the graphs and analytics visualizations. The three web pages/tabs(components) of dashboard are named as
follows:
 Availability and Performance Module.
 Quality Monitoring Module.
 Overall Equipment Effectiveness (OEE) Module.
Each Tab/Pages in dashboard contains sections called ’tiles’ that contains visual information’s and analysers inbuilt into those tiles
which shows the Equipment’s status in different views.

1) Availability and Performance Monitoring Module: This tab page contains multiple tab content (Tiles) that signifies the
Availability and Performance data collected along with Filters section and a slicer with select date option, the overview of the
page is as shown in Fig 3.2 and it is composed of the following:

c) OEE Losses (contribution of Availability losses, Performance losses, Quality losses): This tile displays the contribution of
components losses that constitutes OEE loss of the day i.e., percentage losses of Availability, Performance and Quality with
respect to date. The user can select date from dropdown tab and get the data in a table that shows the values of components on
that particular day as shown in Fig 3.6.

Figure 3.6: Contribution of each component loss in OEE loss on selected date

d) OEE Trending by date (current and Future path): This tile displays the path traced by OEE throughout the days the machine is
working and based on applied data analytics ‘forecasting’ is applied that shows the path that can be traced in future. The user
can ‘Analyse’ sudden increase(peak) or decrease(crust) in the values of OEE by date Fig 3.7.

The user can select date up to the values that has been imported (values up to 21 July 2021) from dropdown tab and get the data in a
table that shows the values of OEE on that particular day, and the user can see the forecasted results, (all the values after 21 July
2021) the table will show the upper bound and lower bound limits of the values within which the OEE can trace its path. The data
table in Figure 3.8 shows the following values:

Figure 3.8: Forecasted future path that can be travelled by OEE

To avoid losses, complete monitoring of OEE and the analysis of historic data of Production of the component in the Manufacturing
machine is required. The accuracy of the forecasting depends upon the ‘number of training data available’ that is the historic data
which will be analysed and considered for the forecasting as it can analyse the pattern of the data within the acquired boundary to
forecast a result, thus will be scope of this topic of analysing OEE to drastically diminish the losses of productivity of a
Manufacturing plant.

IV. CONCLUSIONS
In the present research presented the process of developing a BI solution to a single Typical CNC Machining centre. It aimed to
consolidate the data from CNC controllers through OPCUA of manufacturing machine in a single central repository, in order to be
able to process all data and generate information on the machine’s activity status. The implementation of a system of this nature can
allow different collaborators access to relevant information and can be supported their decision-making, regardless of their location
and time of access to the information. In addition, with the centralization of the different sources of information and their different
formats (Excel files, relational databases, etc.), it can allow to improve not only data processing, and data modelling but also
information quality and quantity and the speed of its communication to decision-makers. This possibility is explained by the datum
that data and information started to flow automatically and as needed through an automated process. Thus, the necessary and
requested information is permanently available to be consulted by all authorized users of the organization.
For the present work, the data files that were imported into Power BI as a source for calculating certain indicators are working files
from the operational areas, so they are open to variations in their structure that outcomes from the individual needs of these areas.
As Microsoft Power BI pertains a set of pre-established steps for data processing, the situation designated above may constitute a
limitation to automatic data refresh, leading to a do-over to verify, every month, the conformity of these files so they can be
imported into the system. Bearing in mind this limitation and aiming to automate the process of refreshing data files, it is proposed,
as future work, to migrate these work files to an information system that will assurance the data integrity and structure of the files. It
is intended that Power BI is connected directly to this information system, so that data refreshes can be carried out automatically and
on a scheduled basis. This will improve the required time to update the system.
