RESUMO

The aim of this work is to present a methodology to design and to implement Flexible Manufacturing Cell (FMCs) that should be used to manufacture parts remotely using the World Wide Web resources. This methodology (WebFMC) describes a method to integrate the FMC workstations based on the hierarchical modified control architecture and an architecture to implement the cell control system (Management Unit). This methodology approach can be applied in academic centre such as in the industry. In academic centre will serve as a model to built remote laboratories to the engineering courses in the distance learning. On the industry, will promote the business opportunity to the every company that does not possess the necessary resources to manufacture their products. The design of this FMC is based on the modeling work. The simulation modeling by workspace and the discrete event modeling by Petri Nets was used to define the cell layout and to describe the messages that should be changed among the workstations respectively. The methods IDEF0 and IDEF1x, from the IDEF methodology, were used to design and to document the functional and data modeling from the Management Unit. The Management Unit (MgU), as a computational system, was designed based on the Rational Unified Process (RUP). Based on this approach, was possible to aggregate important elements of object oriented design to build a computational system reusable and easiest maintenance. The Unified Modeling Language (UML) was used to design and to document the Management Units cycle life. Java is the technology used to implement the MgU. The APIs and associated technology supply the necessary support to run the MgU by internet (via JNLP - URL: http://webfmc.graco.unb.br/mgu/mgu.jnlp), to access the database (via JDBC) and to establish the communication with the workstations (using the API Java Communication and the Interface JNI).
