Description

Distributed control method for automatic manufacturing system with assembly operation
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of automatic manufacturing systems, and relates to a distributed control method for an automatic manufacturing system with assembly operation.
Background
In order to quickly respond to market changes and meet the emerging customer needs, scientists developed automated manufacturing systems. Generally, an automated manufacturing system is composed of a plurality of manufacturing processes that concurrently perform respective manufacturing tasks according to respective process recipes. During the execution of these processes, resources (e.g., buffers, material handling equipment, etc.) are often required to assist their completion. In practice, these resources are limited, which makes them necessary to be shared by these processes. However, such a processing environment is prone to deadlock. Once a deadlock occurs, the system will experience production stalls with serious and even catastrophic consequences. To solve the deadlock problem in an automated manufacturing system, it is common practice to introduce a corresponding controller to apply to a given system model, thereby avoiding undesirable behavior.
Over the past decades, a series of supervisory control methods have been developed. These supervisory control methods can be classified into a centralized control method and a distributed control method. In industry, actual automated manufacturing systems are intricate in scale. Each automated manufacturing system is comprised of relatively small scale, local, asynchronous, and interactive subsystems. Its execution is the result of the interaction of these subsystems. It is clear that with the increasing number of these subsystem modules, the problem of "state explosion" will be faced with the centralized control method, with the well-known computational and memory complexity problems. Based on the above problems, more and more researchers are turning their attention to the distributed control method. By adopting a distributed control method, the monitoring task completed by the central controller can be completed by a group of local controllers together. Each local controller receives observation information of the subsystem controlled by the local controller and makes local decisions according to the received local observation information, so that the calculation and storage complexity is greatly reduced.
The existing distributed control methods are summarized and analyzed, and defects exist in the process of wide popularization, and are particularly shown in the following point 1. due to the fact that the design of a controller becomes extremely complex due to an automatic system with an assembly operation, most of the existing distributed control methods are only limited to solving the deadlock problem of an automatic manufacturing system with a flexible path, and the automatic manufacturing system with the assembly operation is ignored. However, the assembly operation gives the system more structural information than a flexible path. The research result based on the automatic manufacturing system with the assembly operation is more general and can be popularized to a more complex automatic manufacturing system. 2. In these distributed control methods, many need to rely on a reachability graph or system architecture to complete the design of the controller. However, whether based on reachability maps or system architectures, it is difficult to apply these methods to large-scale automated manufacturing systems due to computational complexity issues.

Detailed Description
The present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.
The invention provides a distributed control method based on an automatic system with assembly operation, which realizes active distributed control on line by applying a dynamic search method. The individual processes between the split operation and the assemble operation are referred to as parallel processes in the present invention.
First, the library sites in the F-AMG are classified into a key library site and a general library site. According to the definition of the key library in the paper "distributed Supervisory Synthesis for automated manufacturing systems Using Petri nets", if the various working phases of a process are executed sequentially, the present invention defines the working phase with the minimum or maximum resource requirement as the key library. In the F-AMG, the work phases are not completely connected in sequence, as described above, for the parallel process between the flow splitting operation and the assembling operation, the work phases in the same parallel process are connected in sequence, and the work phases between different parallel processes are connected in parallel. Taking F-AMG in FIG. 1 as an example, P3And P5Are connected sequentially, and P3And P4Are connected in parallel. However, because each parallel process has the characteristic of sequential connection of working phases, the invention extends the definition of the sub-key library.
Definition 1: given an F-AMG, when B (t)s,te) When the following conditions are satisfied, it can be called a signature module: 1) | ts ·|≥2,|·ts|=Φ;2)|te ·|=Φ,|·te| ≧ 2, as shown in FIG. 3, where tsRepresenting a split operation, teRepresenting assembly operations, splitting operations tsAnd assembly operation teThe individual processes in between are referred to as parallel processes. Taking FIG. 3 as an example, t11Representing a split operation, t16Representative AssemblyOperation, t11And t16There are two parallel processes in between, respectively<p11,t12,p12,t13,p13>,<p14,t14,p15,t15,p16>。
Definition 2: given an F-AMG, p is any one of the libraries, and the demand of each resource by the library p can be expressed as a vector ap=[ap(r1),ap(r2)……ap(rL)]TWherein L represents the number of classes of the resource, r1,r2,……rLDenotes various types of resources in F-AMG, ap(r1),ap(r2)……ap(rL) Respectively representing the p pairs of resources r of the library1,r2,……rLThe required amount of (c).
Definition 3: assuming that there are N parallel processes between the flow-splitting operation and the assembling operation, N belongs to N+,Represents a set of all libraries in the ith parallel process, i ∈ NnThen the key library can be defined as
1.
2.And p isx<p<py. And,px<p'<pyhas ap≥ap'};
3.And p isx<p<py. And,p<p'<pyhas ap≥ap'}; wherein p isx<p<pyDenotes a library pyBefore the library location p, the library location p is located in the library location pxBefore; p is a radical ofx、pyRepresenting two sub-key libraries in the same process.
According to the definition, the sub-key libraries can be divided into three classes, the first class represents the working phase with the minimum requirement on resources, and the F-AMG structure shows that the working phase with the minimum requirement on resources does not need resources (such as the initial library site and the end library site); the second category refers to two sub-key libraries p of the same parallel processxAnd pyThere is a repository with a demand ratio p for resourcesxAnd pyIf the resource demand of any library is large, the library is the sub-key library; the third category refers to two sub-key libraries p of the same parallel processxAnd pyThere is a repository that has a higher demand for resources than it does for the sub-key repositoryyThe requirement of any library in between is large, and the library is also called a sub-key library.
With the definition of the sub-key library, the ordered combination of the sub-key libraries of each parallel process forms the local key library, so that the definition of the local key library is obtained by the method provided by the invention:
definition 4: given a set of sub-keysThen the local key repositoryCan be defined as:
1.
2.
wherein,respectively represent the j th1A, j th2… … th jnA set of all libraries in a parallel process;
as shown in definition 4, the local key library is an ordered combination of n sub-key libraries belonging to different parallel processes and belonging to the same class of sub-key libraries.
When all the libraries between the flow operation and the assembly operation are combined into a virtual library, each process of the F-AMG has the characteristic of working state sequential connection. The specific combination method comprises the following steps: the input arc of each library in each parallel process to the resource library is moved to the transition position representing the assembly operation, the input arc of each library in each parallel process to the resource library is moved to the transition position representing the shunt operation, and the part between the shunt operation and the assembly operation is replaced by a virtual library, so that the simplified F-AMG has the characteristic of sequential connection of working stages. As shown in fig. 2, fig. 2 is a simplified model of the flag module in fig. 1. Taking FIG. 1 as an example, to merge the token map blocks B (t)2,t5) In the section between, t is required to be adjusted3To p15,t4To p15Is moved to transition t5A is p16To t3,p16To t4,p17To t3,p17To t4Is moved to t2Then p is added3,t3,p5,p4,t4,p6Using virtual places pfic1Instead, as shown in fig. 2. Thus, the invention obtains the concept of a global library:
definition 5: given the F-AMG, the system is,all operation libraries in the ith process type after F-AMG simplification are represented, and the global key library of the operation libraries can be defined as
1.
2.And p isx<p<py. And,has ap≥ap'};
3.And p isx<p<py. And,has ap≥ap'};
As can be seen from definition 5, the global key library can be divided into three classes. The first type represents a library place with zero resource demand, and in the F-AMG, represents an initial library place and an end library place; the second type represents that in the simplified F-AMG, any given process is given if any two global key libraries p in the processxAnd pyThere is a repository with a demand ratio p for resourcesxAnd pyIf the resource demand of any library is large, the library is defined as a global key library; the third type represents that in the simplified F-AMG, any given process is given if any two global key libraries p in the processxAnd pyThere is a repository whose demand for resources is later than that of the global key repositoryyAny library in between has a large demand for resources, and the library is defined as the global key library.

The following is a detailed description by way of an example.

Since the present invention dynamically and in real time generates event occurrence sequences, it is not difficult to see that the sequences are not unique and different search sequences will result in different event sequences. According to the distributed control method, one transmitting sequence sigma can be obtained, the system can be ensured to operate without deadlock, and sigma is equal to<t7,t1,t8,t9,t2,t3,t10,t11,t4,t5,t7,t1,t8,t9,t2,t3,t10,t11,t4,t5,t6,t12>。
The invention has the following advantages:
1. the invention provides a distributed control method for a system with the structural characteristic of assembly operation, which means that compared with the original distributed control method for the system with the structural characteristic of flexible manufacturing, the conclusion generated by the method is more general and is a further extension of the original conclusion, so that the method can be easily expanded to a more complex automatic manufacturing system. For example, a core key point of the implementation of the distributed control method proposed by the present invention is to determine a key library of the system, where the definition of the key library is given in the paper "distributed superior synchronization for automated manufacturing systems using petrinets", however, the definition of the key library is no longer applicable in a system having a structural feature of an assembly operation, because in a system having a structural feature of an assembly operation, the synchronicity between assembly processes is considered. Based on the characteristics, the invention extends the definitions of the sub-key library, the local key library and the global key library, and the definition of the key library given in the paper "distributed superior synthesis for automated manufacturing systems using petrinets" is only a special case of the invention.
2. The invention adopts a real-time online control mechanism, and a controller is not required to be designed in advance. This means that in case of an emergency, for example, a resource failure, the method of the present invention can dynamically monitor the status, and then adjust the existing resource information in time and feed it back to the corresponding controller to make a correct control decision. Because a complicated controller design flow is avoided, the calculation amount is greatly reduced, and the distributed control method has higher efficiency.
3. On the basis of the original paper "distributedSupervisor Synthesis for automated manufacturing systems Using Petrenets", the definition of the key library is extended more deeply. The distributed Supervisory Synthesis for automated manufacturing systems Using PetriNet is a flexible path-based study, each process consisting of processing stages that are executed sequentially and not in parallel, in which the present invention defines a key library as the processing stage that has the smallest or the largest demand for resources. In the model of the invention, however, the machining stages in each machining pass are not performed completely sequentially. When a split operation is encountered, the part being machined is split into several sub-components for machining in different sub-processes until an assembly operation is encountered, and the sub-components are assembled into a new part. For these sub-processes between the splitting operation and the assembling operation, the processing stages in the same parallel process are executed sequentially, and the processing stages in different parallel processes are executed in parallel. Because the processing stages in the parallel process are sequentially executed, the present invention can obtain the definition of the sub-key library, and in the corresponding parallel process, the processing stage with the minimum or maximum resource requirement is called as the sub-key library in the parallel process. The execution of the assembly operation requires that the parallel processes be synchronized, i.e. the assembly operation cannot be executed as long as one of the parallel processes has not yet ended. Based on this, the present invention extends to the definition of the local key library, which represents a combination of sub-key libraries of the same type belonging to different parallel processes, and the number of sub-key libraries included in the combination should be equal to the number of parallel processes. The invention further extends the concept of a global key library by representing all the process stages between the split operation and the assembly operation as virtual process stages such that each process step in the model of the invention is characterized by sequential execution.
4. The algorithm of the invention does not need to monitor global information, each step is executed only depending on whether the existing resources are enough, except for the process currently being executed, the invention does not need to know the states of other processes, so that the control method of the invention is a distributed control method, and the communication traffic between the observer and the process is greatly reduced.
The invention applies the Petri network as a mathematical tool, avoids exhaustible state space, reduces the complexity of the algorithm, realizes the high-efficiency control of a system with large scale, adopts a dynamic, online and distributed control mode to observe and control the local state, thereby finally ensuring the no deadlock of the whole system.
