An Asset Administration Shell Submodel for Representing the Procedural Part of ISA-88 Recipes

It is undeniable the benefits that the implementation of digital twins provides to industries. However, the greatest advances in this regard have been made in the definition and implementation of digital twins in discrete manufacturing industries. The development of these twins is still in its early stages in process industries. An important issue in creating digital twins to support decision-making in the process industry is to be able to describe the production procedures. This paper aims to present an Asset Administration Shell submodel that allows the representation of procedural recipes in the batch process industry based on the ISA-88 standard. This paper proposes a conceptual model to represent the Sequential Function Chart language, which is one of the languages proposed by the mentioned standard to represent manufacturing procedure. In addition, the proposal includes a set of rules to map Sequential Function Chart concepts into concepts belonging to the Asset Administration Shell metamodel introduced by Platform Industrie 4.0. These mapping rules would allow the implementation of tools that automatically translate existing Sequential Function Chart models into Asset Administration Shell submodels to reuse existing knowledge for the implementation of digital twins in batch process industries.
