Abstract
A method is provided for application of part flow model for a programmable logic controller logical verification system. The method includes the steps of constructing a part flow model, determining whether the part flow model is acceptable, and using the part flow model to test PLC code to build a manufacturing line.
Claims21
A method of part flow model for a programmable logic controller logical verification system, said method comprising the steps of:
- constructing a part flow model;
- determining whether the part flow model is acceptable;
- and
- using the part flow model to test PLC code to build a manufacturing line.
A method for application of a part flow model for a programmable logic controller logical verification system, said method comprising the steps of:
- constructing a part flow model;
- playing the part flow model by a PLC logical verification system;
- determining whether the part flow model is acceptable;
