Abstract

The management of the universal self-stacker in the assembly line handles many different operations, which differ in the complexity of the solved problems, the response time of the controller, energy and other parameters. It is usually used one controller with all the features that have a lot of external input-output modules and have to deal with many tasks in parallel. The management application must be very complicated and blind with the risk of collision management processes and the need to address the priority of the management process. If the processes are divided into groups, each group of processes is solved by a separate controller. For simple processes, where appropriate, can be used for immediate response simple and easy to control, it is necessary to solve complex management processes using a controller with sufficient power, energy load, math performance and sufficient memory.
