Integração entre soluções inspiradas em planejamento automático e ambientes didáticos práticos baseados em CLP

Abstract

Industry 4.0 is a concept characterized by the use of intelligent, automated and interconnected systems to increase productivity, efficiency and flexibility in production processes. However, the application of systems such as automatic planning is still limited. While real systems use Programmable Logic Controller (PLC) type equipment with Ladder language, automatic planners use Planning Domain Definition Language (PDDL). The discrepancy between these technologies represents a difficulty in integrating them. This article explores the implementation of automatic planners with PLCs and presents the development of a practical example of integrating a didactic testing bench with automated planning systems using a software solution developed in Python.
