Abstract
By building a virtual map of a physical entity or system, digital twins can be tested and optimized without actually manufacturing the product, reducing design iteration costs and time. Then, the existing digital twin robotic arm digital twin system often has the limitation of communication distance, operation efficiency is underground and the work flow is not intuitive and so on. In order to solve the above problems, this paper proposes a modeling scheme for the digital twin system of the robot arm: First, this scheme uses MQTT for remote communication. Then, we built a visual 3D simulation platform. Finally, through the introduction of the screen, this system improves the user experience. This paper proves the validity and rationality of the above content through 3D simulation experiment. Therefore, the system developed in this paper is innovative and has high value both theoretically and practically in the field of digital twin.
