Flat Glass Processing - 7 OPC UA ObjectTypes

The GlassMachineType provides the information of the machine and is formally defined in Table 12. A Machine or system can contain other subsystems (e.g. other machines or devices). Such a complex system can be modelled with the component structure from OPC UA Machinery (see OPC 40001-1section 11).

This GlassMachine object can be further divided into subtypes using the modular device structure from OPC UA for Machinery.

ProductionPlan defines a folder for the placeholders of jobs and keeps all information regarding the jobs. The job list contains all jobs that should be processed with this machine. The jobs are sorted in the ProductionPlan, but that sorting can be changed. If a job is ended, the machine decides which Job will be processed next.

JobListIsRecommendation is a flag which indicates that the sequence in the ProductionPlan is a recommendation. That means that the machine and/or the operator can modify the sequence. If the first job in the sequence is interrupted or idled/queued another job can be processed. The sequence in the JobList is fixed if the flag is false and if the first job cannot be processed, an interaction is necessary.

MaxCountOfJobs contains the maximum amount of jobs, which the server is able to handle within its memory capacity. CurrentCountOfJobs contains the current number of jobs, which are stored on the server at the moment.

SupportedMaterialTypes contains the NodeId of all MaterialTypes (subtypes of the BaseMaterialType) that can be used in this machine.

7.2.1.2 ChangePositionInListMethod

This method requests a change of the PositionInList to modify the processing order. The new position is specified by the NodeId of another job. If the flag ´before´ is true, the new position is before the given job. If the flag ´before´ is false, the new position will be after the given job. For example, the list contains 3 jobs (job_a, job_b, job_c), if the method is called for job_c with the NodeId of job_a and before is true, the new list is job_c, job_a, job_b. If the same method is called with the flag false, the new list is job_a, job_c, job_b.

The signature of this Method is specified below in Table 17 and Table 18 which specify the Arguments and AddressSpace representation, respectively.

7.2.5 ProductionStateMachineType definition

The ProductionStateMachineType describes a fundamental statemachine for processing jobs from glass machines and is formally defined in Table 38. An implementation of this statemachine is mandatory. Furthermore, it can be extended by further substatemachines (e.g. for a detailed description of the Running state). The name of each transition consists of the names of the states it connects: [FromState]To[ToState]. Their References are specified in Table 37.

On the first level, the state machine consists of the states Initialized (there is a sub-state-machine with Idle, Queued, Released), Running, Interrupted, Aborted and Ended. The state transitions can be initiated by HLS or by the machine itself. Figure 15 shows the state machine and the state transitions graphically.

Figure 15 – JobStateMachine

The states shall have the numbers indicated in Table 36; the transitions shall have the numbers indicated in Table 36.

Initializing is the state in which the element in production is being prepared. During this state, the machine and the job doesn’t have to be ready for production, although it has to be as soon as the transition InitializingToRunning is used. The production is not yet started. This state contains a sub-statemachine of the Type InitializingSubStateMachineType. Depending on the implementation, a glass machine starts to process the jobs which have been released for production either by itself or by an operator. The machine sets the status of the next released job in the queue to Running and processes it.

Running indicates that the operation of a job in production has been started or re-started and is currently running. There can be sub-statemachines in future versions of this standard or vendor-specific sub-statemachines.

Interrupted indicates that the execution of a job in production has been reversibly halted. This is usually due to an error or an intervention by the operating personnel. It is possible to restart operation of or on the element in production after it was in the interrupted state. From Interrupted you can switch back to the Running state by Continue or, if the processing is to be aborted with Abort to the State Aborted (both transitions are machine internal). Furthermore, an interrupted job can be brought back to the Queued state with the SuspendMethod called by an HLS.

The state Aborted indicates, that the operation of a job in production has been irreversibly stopped before finishing. In addition, an already scheduled job can be moved directly to the Aborted state with the Abort-Method from HLS if the job is not to be produced.

Ended is reached when the operation of a job in production has been finished. Jobs can only be removed in the states Ended and Initializing (only in sub-states Idle and Queued).

7.2.6 InitializingSubStateMachineType Definition

The InitializingSubStateMachineType provides more finely subdivided states (Idle, Queued and Released) to the Initialized state. Idle, are jobs which have been created but not yet scheduled. If the job is scheduled by an HLS in the queue of the glass machine, the state changes to Queued. To reach the Released state, which symbolizes the production release, an HLS must confirm the release by calling the ReleasedMethod. This SubStateMachine is formally defined in Table 38. The name of each transition consists of the names of the states it connects: [FromState]To[ToState]. Their References are specified in Table 40.

0:HasComponent	Variable	GasFilling	0:Number	0:AnalogUnitType	Optional
0:HasComponent	Variable	MixingRatio	0:Number	0:AnalogUnitType	Optional

Gas_1 uniquely describes the first gas, which is part of the gas filling. The manufacturer and the material designation should be included.

Gas_2 uniquely describes the second gas, which is part of the gas filling. The manufacturer and the material designation should be included.

GasFilling defines the filling level of the gas in percent, for a filling of 100% the values is 100. For this variable are also values of more than 100 allowed, to represent an overpressure in the final product.

MixingRatio describes the ratio of the gas mixture. Here the value 0 means that only the first gas (Gas_1) is contained. If the parameter is 100 only second gas (Gas_2) is in the mixture. With a value of 50 both gases are contained in the ratio 1:1.

The component Variables of the GasMixType have additional Attributes defined in Table 48.
