چکیده
In pursuit of flexible and agile automation within the domain of discrete manufacturing, a paint-shop with its surrounding logistics and handling processes is under construction as a laboratory prototype application. Holonic Manufacturing is argued to be a promising strategic paradigm and architecture to use for a system characterized by flexible production logistics and control. This paper describes the physical devices to be used; the desired functionality; and the basic logic control design. Additionally, the ideas for holonification, based on the already designed logic control, are presented. The paper also outlines a holonic Automated Guided Vehicle (AGV) system developed for the automated paint-shop. The AGV system is composed of autonomous AGV holons that cooperate, individually or in groups, with other holons, such as robot holons and vision-system holons.

متن کاملA Service-Orientated Arhitecture for Holonic Manufacturing Control
The paper describes a solution and implementing framework for the management of changes which may occur in a holonic manufacturing system. This solution is part of the semi-heterarchical control architecture developed for agile job shop assembly with intelligent robots-vision workstations. Two categories of changes in the manufacturing system are considered: (i) changes occurring in resource st...
متن کاملDesign of collaborative and reconfigurable control architecture for dispersed productive systems
In general, the control systems for conventional manufacturing systems are organized into hierarchical layers such as, enterprise control, factory control, and shop floor control. In an approach based on division in scope and breadth of the problems these levels are designed to act with relative autonomy. However, currently manufacturing systems must necessarily be reconfigurable to assure feat...
متن کاملSchedule Execution for a Holonic Shop Floor Control System
The control structure of a traditional shop floor control system (SFCS) is built according to a strict multi-level hierarchy. Such a SFCS is very rigid and does not support evolution nor adaptation to the factory needs. Holonic manufacturing is a new approach to deal with these problems. A holonic manufacturing system is a highly decentralised system consisting of co-operative, intelligent, aut...
متن کاملCustomer order management in service oriented holonic manufacturing
One of the most important problems when considering the design of manufacturing systems based on SOA paradigms is the integration of shop floor devices in the business processes at the enterprise level. This paper presents the design and implementation of the Customer Order Management (COM) module based on SOA architecture in the context of holonic manufacturing systems. The COM module is integ...
