Zusammenfassung
Modifications in product and system requirements
as well as adaptations in lot sizes that cannot be foreseen in
the initial planning period require rapid changes and, therefore,
reconfigurable manufacturing systems. However, traditional automation
technologies based on traditional procedural programming
languages such as IEC 61131-3 often lack in flexibility.
This paper presents two different approaches contributing to this
field of research in order to enhance efficiency and flexibility
in automation engineering, namely model-based engineering
with automated code generation and dynamic orchestration
of semantic web services. A combination of both approaches
into an integrated concept are discussed, promising significantly
increased flexibility and, by that, reconfigurability through adhoc
code generation from models during deployment time.
