Imagine a station in a car manufacturing plant.

  • On the left side of the car,
  • a few joints need to be performed with the Joining Tool.
  • the outcome should be validated with a wrench.
  • On the right side,
  • another batch of joints need be performed.
  • the outcome should be validated by a wrench.
  • the outcome should be validated by a vision system.
  • The left and right side of the car should be handled by two different operators independently in parallel.
  • The operators can occasionally enter radio shadow but should still be able to carry out their tasks.
  • The MES want to control the station as one unit and get the total result when all is done.
