Abstract: | Flexible manufacturing cells (FMC's) are well-established as a means of improving manufacturing efficiency in many batch production industries. They consist of an integrated group of CNC machine tools , programmable logic controller (PLC) based work/tool handling equipment and a control system to synchronize their operation. The safe and reliable operation of FMC's is clearly essential for their efficient use. In this paper the authors introduce a methodology which uses Petri nets for producing correct PLC programs directly from the specifications. |
