Abstract :
The main goal of this paper is to present the technology based on Petri net theory for analysis of flexible manufacturing system. Using Petri net models it is possible to encompass the hierarchical structure of manufacturing system organization, different material and data flows, concurrency and asynchronicity of process execution, buffer sizes, production routes, transport, assembly and machining operation times, and so on
