Abstract
In a method for developing a machine for producing a product, properties of the product to be produced are defined and tasks to be performed for producing the product are defined. The tasks are subdivided into a plurality of sub-tasks, and, based on the sub-tasks, an algorithm is established for producing the product in a virtual model, wherein hardware and control functions are established simultaneously. A machine that implements the algorithm and the control functions can then be constructed, with the control functions implemented as reconfigurable hardware.

A method for developing a machine for producing a product, comprising the steps of:
- defining properties of the product to be produced;
- defining tasks to be performed for producing the product;
- subdividing the tasks into a plurality of sub-tasks;
- based on the sub-tasks, establishing an algorithm for producing the product in a virtual model, wherein hardware and control functions are established simultaneously;
- and
- constructing a machine that implements the algorithm and the control functions, with the control functions implemented as reconfigurable hardware.
