Abstract: The paper presents a structuring tool which allows the user to build rigorously and systematically the procedural part of the control system of flexible manufacturing systems. This tool allows the production of a control graph (coloured structured Petri nets) where the parallelism and the concurrency of the system are shown. The authors propose a set of structuring primitives based on a functional analysis of the initial model of the production system.
Keywords: flexible manufacturing cell; control graph; coloured structured net; structuring primitive; control system structuring.
