Abstract
The assembly of control cabinets is highly affected by manual processes. Available solutions to automate the processes are complex, designed for one dedicated task, and expensive. Hence, they are uneconomically for most enterprises, because the typical company in the domain of control cabinet assembly is a small or medium sized enterprise with a high variance and low lot size production. Low-cost and flexible solutions that are suitable for these companies are not available. In order to design an appropriate solution, we have implemented a distributed control pattern. Within this paper, we present the resulting architecture as well as our implementation, and we discuss the advantages of our approach.
