Prediction of the Remaining Useful Life of a Two-Degree-of-Freedom Robot Based on a Digital Twin Model
Prediction of the Remaining Useful Life of a Two-Degree-of-Freedom Robot Based on a Digital Twin Model
A proposed method for predictive maintenance (PdM) and remaining useful life (RUL) estimation for a robot arm based on sensor data and a digital twin. Parameters from the physical model are identified using the recursive least squares (RLS) method and periodically updated to the virtual model. Subsequently, performance degradation is simulated on MATLAB/Simulink to estimate the RUL. The method is validated through both experimental and simulation-based approaches.
