It is supposed to be capable of mapping the correct proportions between a product and its production environment and further on being able to integrateprocesses which had previously run separately. For this system a Java-based control architecture was developed which enables a "plug and produce" principle. It dynamically recognizes new modules being plugged in and makes them available in a case-tool to be integrated in the production cycle. Therefore the Jini technology is used to realize the modularization and make use of the distributed architecture. The case-tool offers capabilities like state-based or sequence-orientated modeling. Using this model the source code for the sequence control is generated automatically.enMontagesystemMikromontageXML - Extensible Markup LanguageMontage670Java-based control architecture for reconfigurable micro-assembly systemsconference paper
