Ein modellgesteuerter Engineering Design Prozess für die Entwicklung der Steuerungssoftware für Intralogistische Systeme

Mass customization and small lot sizes have increased the demand for flexible software engineered Intralogistics Systems. To deal with these demands, not only is the effort of diverse engineering disciplines called for but also error-proneness must be reduced. Hence, a modular architecture, which enables changes in the plant design with minimized engineering and commissioning effort, is desired. In order to improve the reusability and applicability of automation control software, a meta model and layout-oriented editor for Intralogistics Systems is presented in this paper. The evaluation of the meta model is performed by commissioning an actual industrial Intralogistics System and expert evaluation.
