Modelling of high throughput production lines by using generic models described in batches Petri nets

In order to optimise high throughput production lines, modelling of the physical part must be carried out to simulate these production lines. In this note, modelling, using generic models which each represents a behaviour described in batches Petri nets, is presented. Thus, to model a production system, functional models, which represent the different elements of the operative part of these system, are instanced from existing generic models and then are assembled for forming the complete model.<<ETX>>
