Abstract
Control theory provides excellent tools to analyse and control dynamic systems. Using the funnel model and the theory of the operating characteristic curve, a continuous model of a production system was developed. Based on this model two controllers were designed to control backlog and WIP. Simulation experiments have confirmed that this concept ensures the synchronisation of capacity and work. A suggestion on how to integrate the strategy into PPC on the planning level is discussed in the following. The objective of this approach is to develop the present open loop control realised in PPC into a closed loop control.
