Abstract

In order to operate the automatic devices of manufacturing process more efficiently and to solve the needs of the resource sharing, network technology is applied to the unit control devices located in common manufacturing zone and operated by connecting them. In this paper, functional standard of the network operation layer is set as MAP standard application layer of MMS(manufacturing message standard) for the cell of group, which is suggested by CIM(computer integrated manufacturing) standardization as common manufacturing zone. MMS is composed of abstract message which is not consider specific devices. Then, specific message standard must be defined to operate MMS. It is designed ad VMD(virtual manufacturing device)objects which are abstract objects to perform group management based on the companion standard. Also, they are operated in the group management model system. Group management operation takes multicast communication method which is the communication from single source to the multiple sinks, and the group management system and unit control devices are performed as VMD and real device mapping.
