Abstract
Abstract Simulation is an invaluable tool in designing and analyzing manufacturing systems. A Petri net-based simulation tool is presented to aid simulation projects in manufacturing, including flexible manufacturing systems (FMSs). Three models are developed—an object model, Petri net model, and control model. While hardware components of FMSs are modeled by Petri net objects, control functions are separately modeled and integrated with a Petri net model to resolve conflicts occurring in Petri net execution. Facilities of the developed tool are presented, and a modeling procedure with the tool is illustrated via a case study.
