Abstract:
The configuration of modern manufacturing systems is often complicated by the use of vendor-specific tools and the need for specialist knowledge. This work presents an approach that automatically generates SysML v2 system models from OPC UA information models. This approach has the advantage of reducing the amount of manual effort required, thereby facilitating the adoption of model-based design methodologies in the field of manufacturing systems. The demonstration of this approach is illustrated through the utilisation of industrial robots, thereby exemplifying the transformation of structural and functional data from OPC UA into SysML-v2 constructs. Furthermore, adapted system models can be partially reflected back into OPC UA. While this bidirectional transformation supports tighter integration between product development and production, limitations remain regarding process logic and machine-specific constraints.
