Abstract
This work is part of a research project on product-driven automation that makes the product active for business and manufacturing purposes. The paper focuses on the design and the simulation of a product-driven control system to ensure better synchronization between informational and physical flows. Feasibility of the product-driven concept is evaluated by the development of an industrial test-bed from Trane Company. Main results show benefits for product traceability and cost & time reduction thanks to a better synchronization and anticipation between the manufacturing, assembly and supplying lines of the Trane plant.
