Flowchart Programming Environment for Process Control

PC 기반 제어기를 위한 Flowchart 활용 프로그래밍 환경의 개발

For agile production methods, manufacturing system requires development of a motion controller which has flexibility of general-purpose motion controller and productivity of specialized-purpose one. In this study we developed the Flowchart Programming development environment for Motion language and Process Control. The controller designed on this environment can be used as a general purpose motion controller of a machining tool. Design of control programming based on a flowchart has the advantage of reducing the time consumed and intuitive interface for users. We create the solution with the Microsoft Visio for the flowchart-based platform and OPC for the process communication..
