Abstract

Abstract An Integrated Machine Design and Control (IMDC) environment for the visual representation and integration of the physical machine components and control logic is discussed in this paper. The approach taken is unique in that (a) the control logic and physical models of the elements can be investigated individually for correctness and completeness, (b) the control logic can be easily integrated with the solid models to animate the model of the physical machine and (c) reconfiguration enables the same control logic to be applied to real world physical machine elements. At any stage during the machine design and implementation process, the user of the environment can pause and question the validity of certain operations and control system parameters.
