We propose a self-managing services architecture for automated manufacturing systems to enable sustainable manufacturing operations. The architecture utilises both software agents and IEC 61499 function blocks to realise manufacturing systems that quickly respond to change while maintaining stable system operation and efficient use of available resources. To explore the system’s ability to adapt to disturbances, a stochastic agent-based simulation of the automated manufacturing system with random equipment failures was developed. The results of the simulation demonstrate that the proposed self-managing services architecture is capable of rapidly reconfiguring part routings in order to reduce work in progress and maintain stable system operation. |
