Abstract
In this work, an off-line simulation approach for simultaneously handling the discrete event and motion orient aspects of flexible manufacturing systems (FMS) is presented. A concept for signal handling in a discrete-event simulation based on Petri Nets and a proposed interface to motion simulation is outlined. The description of motion simulation covers the introduction of a unique interface concept for all FMS components. As an example for this approach, the RRSInterface developed for robot simulation is used.
