Timed Supervisory Control of an Industrial Glass Bonding System * * The first author received financial support from the Brazilian Higher Education Personnel Improvement Coordination(CAPES)

摘要

We work with the case study of an industrial glass bonding system for truck cabins that presents interesting aspects of timing to be investigated. Specifically, the coordination of the different equipments must start and wait for the ending of several processes, and a maximal processing time must be respected. Monolithic and local modular supervisors are synthesized using the timed discrete event systems control approach of Brandin and Wonham (1994). By using these tools, we’ve found a minimal time for production in steady state that complies by far the maximal production time.
