Resumo(s)

In the 4th Industrial Revolution era, automation processes operate in a more modular, flexible, and reconfigurable manner, leveraging decentralized decision-making and distributed control. The IEC-61499 Function Block (FB) technology offers a suitable approach to implementing distributed automation control systems. This paper describes the development of a dynamic and on-the-fly reconfiguration control system based on the IEC-61499 standard, applied in a conveyor transfer system case study to automatically adapt its operation to face changes in the number and position of the conveyor modules. The developed control system considers a Python-based FB network using the DINASORE framework. The experimental tests showed promising results regarding the ability of the system to adapt to condition changes automatically and on-the-fly, as well as scalability and robustness.
