Of importance in defining a balanced automation system (BAS) is product quality. Providing the best possible product quality is paramount for any 5MB to compete in the global marlretplace. To be able to obtain the required product quality, the quality verification should not be left to a human operator solely. Instead, the operator should be backed up by automatic supervision. This article presents a generic control system whose main activities are to initiate and supervise production. It is illustrated that, part from the main activities, the control system is also capable of providing automated veriftcation of the product quality. Furthermore, as the control system is designed in a modular fashion, it can be used when moving from one BAS to another while the control system is hardly affected, i.e. a transparent legacy system migration.

“…The suggested solution to the transport control problem by academia is usually to create a formal model, for example by using automata or Petri nets (Adlemo et al, 1995), (Li et al, 2008), and then verify and synthesize a correct supervisor or controller to avoid deadlocks and to guarantee a correct execution. Methods that uses formal models have, however, been hard to introduce in industry.…”

When designing a manufacturing system it is important to plan what the system should do. One important activity in most manufacturing systems is to transport products or resources between different positions. In a flexible manufacturing system it can be challenging to design and plan these transport operations due to their complex logical behavior. This paper presents a method that identifies, creates and visualizes these transport operations based on inputs from a standard virtual manufacturing tool and a high level product operation recipe. The planning of the created transport operations is transformed into a problem of finding a non-blocking solution for a discrete model of the product refinement.
