Abstract:The Ladder Diagram (LD) is an industry-standard programming language for constructing automated manufacturing systems (AMSs) control algorithms. Petri net (PN) theory, on the other hand, is a mathematical and graphical modeling tool for AMSs. Multiple types of PN-based LDs are designed for AMSs with highly complicated LD structures. Thus, it is necessary to propose a technique that can assist in the minimization of the structural complexity of LDs. The main purpose of this study is to propose a methodology for… Show more
