Resumen:
In recent decades, industrial advancements in manufacturing have been driven by the
integration of robots, particularly robotic manipulators, which excel at performing repetitive
tasks with high precision and speed. However, with Industry 4.0, there arose a need for more
advanced and integrated systems, such as digital twins. The implementation of digital twins
is important for improving the competitiveness and efficiency of industries, simplifying
everything from development to the disposal of industrial assets. Nevertheless, there are
still technologies to enhance the efficiency of digital twins, such as their application in
distributed control systems, which is still limited and largely unexplored. This integration
of digital twins in distributed control systems enables the creation of intelligent, automated,
and self-managing distributed control systems. This work aims to construct a digital twin
for the robotic arm available at the Laboratory of Electronic Instrumentation and Control
(LIEC), implementing OPC UA in its communication channel and utilizing IEC 61499 to
enable the implementation of distributed control.
