Industrial Tokenization for LLM-Based Health Intelligence: A Federated Architecture for Industrial Evidence Integration

arXiv:2607.22153v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Industrial health management increasingly relies on heterogeneous information sources, including condition monitoring systems, supervisory control and data acquisition systems, maintenance records, inspection results, and prognostic models. Although large language models provide new opportunities for cross-source reasoning, industrial data and analytical outputs differ substantially in structure, temporal resolution, physical meaning, and reliability. Directly integrating such heterogeneous information into a monolithic model may reduce interpretability, traceability, and adaptability to equipment and data changes. This paper introduces Industrial Tokenization, a conceptual interface for transforming source-specific analytical outputs into structured and machine-interpretable units of industrial evidence, termed Industrial Tokens. Unlike numerical tokens used to encode raw time-series data, Industrial Tokens represent domain-grounded evidence together with source, temporal scope, operating context, analytical meaning, quality or confidence information, and provenance. Based on this concept, a federated industrial architecture is proposed, where heterogeneous analytical subsystems retain autonomy while exposing standardized Industrial Tokens to a central reasoning layer. As an initial implementation, this study presents an end-to-end DiagnosisToken pathway based on vibration-diagnostic outputs, rule-based event aggregation, structured textual token generation, and LLM-based interpretation. Other Industrial Tokens, including SCADA-based condition-monitoring tokens, maintenance tokens, and prognostic tokens, are reserved as future extensions. The proposed framework positions Industrial Tokenization as a semantic interface between domain-specific industrial intelligence and LLM- or agent-based reasoning, rather than another method for encoding raw industrial data.
