Abstract
This bachelor thesis deals with the design and implementation of a distributed MES (Manufacturing Execution System) suitable for the control of an industrial production line in the Testbed for Industry 4.0 at CTU CIIRC. Its aim is to create a distributed MES, whose individual instances will be directly connected to the individual components of the production line, instead of traditional control (according to the automation pyramid: ERP -> MES -> SCADA -> PLC -> devices). The implementation is written in Python~3.10 programming language. It uses the OPC~UA protocol to communicate with production line components. The implementation is fully integrated with other software components (Digital Twin, AI planner, ERP system) that have been developed for Testbed in the past. It also has a web interface that facilitates control and visualization of the manufacturing process (both the entire process and individual MES instances). Testing on the production line has shown that the system is fully functional and meets all specified requirements.
