In this paper, our objective is dedicated to the detection of a deterioration in the estimated operating time by giving preventive action before a failure, and the classification of breakdowns after failure by giving the action of the diagnosis and / or maintenance. For this reason, we propose a new Neuro-fuzzy assistance prognosis system based on pattern recognition called "NFPROG" (Neuro Fuzzy Prognosis). NFPROG is an interactive simulation software, developed within the Laboratory of Automation and Production (LAP) -University of Batna, Algeria. It is a four-layer fuzzy preceptor whose architecture is based on Elman neural networks. This system is applied to the cement manufacturing process (cooking process) to the cement manufacturing company of Ain-Touta-Batna, Algeria. And since this company has an installation and configuration S7-400 of Siemens PLC PCS7was chosen as a programming language platform for our system.

The automation of manufacturing systems is a major obligation to the developments because of exponential industrial equipment, and programming tools, so that growth needs and customer requirements. This automation is achieved in our work through the application programming tools from Siemens, which are PCS 7 (Process Control System) for industrial process control and FuzzyControl++ for fuzzy control. An industrial application is designed, developed and implemented in the cement factory in Ain-Touta (S.CIM.AT) located in the province of Batna, East of Algeria. Especially in the cement mill which gives the final product that is the cement.
