Abstract

Cyber-Physical Production Systems (CPPS) is the result of the combination of complex production processes with high communication capabilities. This joint work generates an improvement in the general system’s performance and efficiency. CPPSs play an increasingly important role in the implementation of “Smart Factories” compatible with data exchange among all the conforming devices, under the concept of the Internet of Things (IoT). Current industry’s needs demand the generation of modular and flexible production systems, so they can easily adapt to the changing market requests. To fulfill this need, the automation standard IEC-61499 is developed based on a distributed architecture and the use of control devices with high processing capabilities. The present work shows a low-cost embedded architecture designed using the IEC-61499 standard to control the operation of an analogic control process.
