Patent number: 11307561Abstract: Techniques are described for receiving manufacturing data and events over real time and non-real time interfaces and associating the data with one another. In one example, real time data is received, the real time data associated with a counter value assigned by a precision counter. The received real time data is stored in a storage buffer, and non-real time data is received, where the non-real time data associated with a counter value assigned by the precision counter. In response to receiving the non-real time data, the buffer is searched for real time data having a matching counter value and, in response to identifying stored real time data associated with a matching counter value, the non-real time data is associated with the real time data based on the match. Data packages are generated including related real time and non-real time data associated with matching counter values.Type: GrantFiled: April 27, 2020Date of Patent: April 19, 2022Assignee: SAP SEInventors: Edgar Wolf, Stephan Meier, Robert Noce

Patent number: 10901394Abstract: Techniques are described for viewing a plurality of related presentation areas linked to a set of machine-related data. In one example, a machine-related data set associated with a manufacturing process session for manufacturing a particular workpiece is presented, the data set representing a common data set presented in a plurality of presentation areas, each associated with a separate view on the machine-related data set. In one of the presentation areas, a selection of a particular group of data points is identified and that presentation area is updated. Reference values associated with the common data set are identified based on the selected group of data points. For each of the other presentation areas, (1) a particular set of data included in the particular other presentation area corresponding to the identified reference values is identified and (2) the corresponding presentation area is updated based on that identified data set.Type: GrantFiled: April 24, 2017Date of Patent: January 26, 2021Assignee: SAP SEInventors: Stephan Meier, Philipp Raub, Robert Noce, Matthias Weigold, Navdeep Raj Ganesh, Sarah Fathallah, Sarah Nolan

Patent number: 10558197Abstract: Techniques for comparing two or more sessions of a manufacturing process are described. In one example, a particular metric associated with execution of a manufacturing process is identified, the particular metric evaluated in a plurality of manufacturing process sessions for at least one manufacturing process. A particular session particular session from the plurality of manufacturing process sessions is selected as a baseline session, wherein at least a portion of the remaining plurality of manufacturing process sessions are to be compared to the baseline session. In a primary portion of a presentation area, a visualization of the values of the identified metric associated with the particular session are presented. In a secondary portion of the presentation area, visualizations of the values of the identified metric associated with at least a portion of the other manufacturing process sessions from the plurality of sessions is presented.Type: GrantFiled: April 24, 2017Date of Patent: February 11, 2020Assignee: SAP SEInventors: Stephan Meier, Robert Noce, Navdeep Raj Ganesh, Ge Cao, Matthias Weigold, Philipp Raub

Patent number: 10353379Abstract: Techniques are described for receiving visualizing two-dimensional (2D) metric data in connection with a three-dimensional (3D) visualization data of a manufacturing process. In one example, a 3D visualization of machine-related data from a process session for manufacturing a particular workpiece is presented, the manufacturing process performed by a machine operating in 3D, the machine-related data associated with a path taken by a tool or end-effector associated with the machine and/or the machine itself during the manufacturing process session. At least one 2D data set is provided representing a metric associated with manufacturing process session. A particular set is selected for presentation within the presented 3D visualization of the machine-related data. A connection between values of the 2D metric set and the machine-related data of the 3D visualization is determined and, based on the connection, the selected 2D metric set is incorporated into the 3D visualization of the machine-related data.Type: GrantFiled: April 24, 2017Date of Patent: July 16, 2019Assignee: SAP SEInventors: Stephan Meier, Philipp Raub, Robert Noce, Matthias Weigold, Navdeep Raj Ganesh, Ge Cao
