Abstract

The development of new technologies, requirements for new benefits and the limitations given by manufacturers of automation software and hardware have promoted the development of new standards. The aim of this paper is the implementation of low-cost distributed systems under IEC-61499 standard, and will be implemented at the classification and handling station of the FESTO MPS-500, in these modules it is possible to use practical problems of real industrial applications.

The IEC-61499 standard standardizes the environment of programming for distributed systems. It has a high versatility for systems’ design because it allows the use of independent software from the hardware that is being used. In implementation the process, we used the software 4DIAC, where new function blocks (FBs) for process control were created. The FORTE runtime was executed on a raspberry Pi card. The IEC-61499 standard allows the system designer to create an event-driven function-blocks execution model, so that the designer can prioritize the execution order and easily modify some parameters of the plant.
