Flexible control system for robot assembly automation

In this paper, we propose an object-oriented model for a control system architecture of robotic assembly automation and extend this model to all event driven automation system. Based on this model, we develop a systematic procedure by means of EDAK claslib (Event Driven Automation Kernel Class Library) to support the users to easily implement any event driven automation system. It also allows the system designer to easily expand an existing system or integrate several event driven automation systems which are all supported by the EDAK control system
