摘要：AbstractDespite the recent growing interest in the “factory smartness”, still there are few small and medium enterprises (SMEs) that adopt effective I4.0 solutions. The main reasons can be related to the lack of formalized processes, lack of ICT knowledge as well as low-cost commercial systems. To cope with these issues, this work focuses on the development and the application of an approach to provide SMEs with a multi-purpose, modular, knowledge-based system: the main aim is to provide a modular and extensible system that can be incrementally implemented without requiring a huge initial investments. This system is based on a core design-knowledge metamodel. From this core metamodel, multi-purposesmodulescan be built: in this paper, we present modules for the traceability support, the AR-powered assembly support, the machine-to-machine control and the data analysis support.
