Sequence plans and function plans
Sequence and function plans describe how a station works – step by step. They connect mechanical design, controls engineering and commissioning and make sure everyone works from the same sequence.
When
What the plans are for
- New stations: as a specification for controls engineering and commissioning
- Existing stations: as a traceable description for maintenance and modification
- Changes: to communicate new sequences clearly

Scope
Contents
Sequence plan
- Station sequence and cycle order
- Clamping and unclamping order
- Robot and operator steps
- Interlocks and releases
- Times and cycle-time shares
Function plan
- Function description per unit: clamps, sensors, valves, media
- Assignment of actuators and sensors
- Home position and states of the station
- Basis for the signal list of electrical and controls planning
Deliverables
What you receive
- Sequence plan of the station
- Function plan per unit
- Prepared in your templates or ours
- PDF and editable source file
- Aligned with design and simulation
What we need
What we need from you
- Design status of the fixture or gripper
- Process description and cycle-time targets
- Your templates and guidelines, if available
FAQ
Frequently asked questions
Do you also create plans for existing stations?
Yes. They are often created together with a 3D scan and modification documentation.
Who are the plans for?
For controls engineering, commissioning, maintenance and operators – as a shared description of how the station works.
