Abstract

The Modular Production System (MPS) can be used to reproduce nearly any function in complex manufacturing processes. In this work a different way of real time TCP/IP control of three different MPS controlled by embedded processors inside a FPGA is proposed. The digital design with FPGA is particularly advantageous due to its parallel processing made possible by its flexible structure, high integration and velocity. The TCP/IP control is carried out with a Rabbit Core microprocessor. This device contains the functions required to implement a web server allowing the remote control of the MPS. A user enters a public IP direction on a designed web page to enable/disable each independent manufacturing process.
