Abstract
An approach using Petri nets to modelling and control of flexible manufacturing systems (FMS) is worked out in the paper. A class of Petri nets suitable for the modelling of FMS and for the design of their control is formulated. In the Petri net models not only conflicts due to mutual exclusions of the shared system resources but conflicts of branching operations are analyzed and solved, as well. Models of FMS suitable for system performance analysis and control design are built up of a set of elementary building blocks proposed in the paper. Analysis, modelling method and control design is developed on the background of a pilot experimental FMS developed at the Helsinki University of Technology.
