“…Nevertheless, there is a growing trend toward assuring reusability of PLC programs through the implementation of an object approach: programs and function blocks are designed as objects that can be exchanged and reused. To do so, some authors propose the use of the existing object oriented facilities present in the IEC 61131-3 standard ( [6][7][8]), propose object-oriented extensions of this standard ( [9], [10]), or even complete frameworks for PLC program development ( [11], [12]). …”

Programmable Logic Controllers (PLC) are key components in modern packaging automation systems. But their success has led to the presence of a broad range of brands and models, each one with its own and unique features, but also with its own environment for software development. This situation has some major drawbacks: it is very difficult to upgrade an installation by changing the PLC, maintenance costs rise with the multiplicity of PLC brands in a given factory, and production parameters must be changed when the production is changed to a machine with a different PLC.In this paper, a first step is presented to address such a situation: instead of developing the same program from scratch for each different PLC brand, a unique program is stored using the PLCopen XML standard. When the program must be ported to a given PLC, an automatic tool, the postprocessor, generates the final code that has to be downloaded to the target PLC. In this paper the PLC tool adapter is presented and an example is shown for three of the major PLC brands present in the packaging industry such as Siemens, Schneider Electric and ABB.

“…In this way the FB construct is similar to the class construct. In [17] authors describe a new extension of the IEC 61131-3 to support the OO programming paradigm. They criticize the approach proposed in [7], based on the argument that this approach will lead to mistakes since it also supports, for compatibility issues the traditional FB.…”

The IEC 61131 has been successfully used for many years in the industrial automation domain. IEC 61499 was defined to better handle complexity and increase modularity and reusability in the development process, but it failed on its objective. The extension of the IEC 61131 that supports the Object Oriented paradigm is considered today as the most promising solution to address new requirements and lead to a more productive development process. In this paper, the upcoming version of the IEC 61131 and mainly its extension to the OO paradigm is analyzed with the intention to identify defects and propose solutions. The approach adopted in this extension is quite similar to the one of C++, i.e., a mixing of procedural and OO paradigms. This has advantages and dis-advantages for the developer.

“…Object-orientation has already attracted the interest of the research community and various approaches have been published on how to exploit OO in this domain, e.g., [26] [27]. However, as it is claimed in [28] most of these works do not take into account the OO aspects of IEC 61131 in the direction of extending it to support the OO paradigm and this has resulted to inefficient proposals regarding the OO extension of the IEC 61131 model.…”

Abstract-Industrial automation systems (IASs) are commonly developed using the languages defined by the IEC 61131 standard and are executed on PLCs. Their software part is considered after the development and integration of mechanics and electronics. This approach narrows the solution space for software and is considered inadequate to address the complexity of today's systems. In this paper, a system-based approach for the development of IASs is adopted. A framework is described to refine the UML model of the software part, which is extracted from the SysML system model, and get the implementation code. Two implementation alternatives are considered to exploit PLCs but also the recent deluge of embedded boards in the market. For PLC targets, the new version of IEC 61131 that supports Object-Orientation is adopted, while Java is used for embedded boards. The case study was developed as a lab exercise for teaching the various technologies that address challenges in the domain of cyber-physical systems where Internet of Things (IoT ) would be the glue regarding their cyber interfaces
