Abstract: This work shows the benefits of a virtual graphical environment to model soft faults behavior in the resources of typical manufacturing processes applying Fuzzy Filter Time Series. It is shown in this work that using the programming tool called Scheduling Control Language (SLC), it is possible to improve the level of abstraction to introduce non-deterministic characteristics in the structural and functional description for each resource and the whole definition for the model. A graphical representation is proposed to generate an on-line platform as a virtual manufacturing laboratory. This instrument will be useful for academic, research and industrial applications. This tool can be used for validating and evaluating models, simulation of scheduling tasks and verification of control algorithms.
