Description
Summary:The paper presents the results of research on the use of hierarchical models with colored Petri nets in the evaluation of automated systems for the preparation and analysis of metallographic specimens. Modeling with hierarchical colored Petri nets was used to evaluate the performance of a preparation and analysis robotic system for metallographic samples. The automated system is composed of three subsystems: the subsystem for the preparation of metallographic samples, the subsystem for the attack with reagent of metallographic samples, the subsystem for the analysis of metallographic samples. Two models were made: a model with colored Petri nets with simple colors and a model with timed colored Petri nets with complex colors. Each model was developed on two hierarchical levels. Level 1 contains the model of the entire flexible system for the preparation and analysis of metallographic samples. Level 2 consists of three sub-models: the sub-model of the system for the preparation of metallographic samples, the sub-model of the system for the reagent attack of metallographic samples, the sub-model of the system for the analysis of metallographic samples. Models with timed colored Petri nets allow the evaluation of system performance in terms of the number of samples analyzed in a time interval. The performance of the modeled system was evaluated by simulation, considering a time interval of eight hours.
