The application of Petri nets is one of the well-known approaches for devel
oping provably error-free control software far manufacturing systems. To ev
aluate the practicability of available methods and tools for at least mediu
m-sized systems, a case study has been performed to develop modularised con
trol software of a production cell with hierarchical Petri nets, supporting
reuse as well as stepwise validation.
