When building control programs in CODESYS, as the project grows larger, it is common to encounter logic that you want to use across multiple programs or function blocks (FB) that you want to reuse. This is where the library system comes into play. CODESYS already has many libraries available, supporting our development with standard functions and communication protocol compatibility. However, it is actually quite easy for us to create our own libraries as well. In this article, we will introduce how to create a library in CODESYS and the steps to use that library in a project. *For more detailed information, you can view it through the related links.

Large language models (LLMs) generate text by predicting the next word in a sentence. There is active research on applying this characteristic to time series data for time series forecasting using LLMs. This time, I would like to introduce a paper focused on anomaly detection in time series titled "Large language models can be zero-shot anomaly detectors for time series?" In this paper, the authors convert time series data into text and apply the language processing capabilities of LLMs to investigate how well they can handle the non-linguistic task of "anomaly detection in time series" without additional training (zero-shot). *For more details on the column, you can view it through the related links.

In manufacturing sites, many people may have experienced a situation where "the machine suddenly stopped." When parts break or motors seize up, unexpected troubles can arise, halting production and delaying deliveries to customers. Especially in today's environments, maintenance of equipment (inspections and parts replacements) often relies on "experience and intuition," and by the time one notices that "something is wrong," it is often already too late. To reduce such troubles, it is very important to "detect signs (precursors) before a failure occurs." The Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry has outlined solutions to these issues in the "Smart Manufacturing Construction Guidelines," presenting them as "Transformation Challenge Map No. 44." This guideline aims to establish a system for "detecting precursors of equipment malfunctions and maintaining stable operations." *For more detailed information, you can view the related links.

In the manufacturing field, daily "awareness" such as "if we fix this, it will get better" and "I feel like there is a lot of waste in this task" is generated. However, many factories struggle with the issue that these insights do not take shape, and improvement activities do not continue. When voices like "I'm too busy to focus on improvements," "the results are hard to see even if we try," and "no one will notice anyway" overlap, improvement activities eventually become mere formalities. So, how can improvements take root as a "culture of the workplace" and continue to be revitalized? The Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry's "Smart Manufacturing Construction Guidelines" presents a five-step framework to activate improvement activities as "Transformation Challenge Map No. 46" in response to these challenges. *For detailed content of the column, you can view it through the related link.
