2.3.1.3 Twin Objects
Process Designer works with a concept called twin-modeling. This can be used for modeling processes and resources for a workstation, zone, line, or the whole factory plant. Twin modeling means that if you create a compound operation, Process Designer automatically creates and assign a compound resource to it, and vice versa.
Object types available for twin modeling:
Icon | Name | Function |
![]() |
PrLine | An object of resource type representing a Line. When it is created, an operation of type Line is also created (PrLineProcess) |
![]() |
Process Resource | An object of resource type representing a Plan. When it is created, an operation of type Plant is also created (Process) |
![]() |
PrPlant | An object of resource type representing a Plant. When it is created, an operation of type Plant is also created (PrPlantProcess) |
![]() |
PrStation | An object of resource type representing a Station. When it is created, an operation of type Station is also created (PrStationProcess) |
![]() |
PrZone | An object of resource type representing a Zone When it is created, an operation of type Zone is also created (PrZoneProcess) |
