PI (proportional-integral) control algorithm is applied to control WIP (work-in-progress) in a discrete manufacturing system,where the cascade control of PI controllers is presented. It is in the frequency domain that the PI controller is designed with constraints on sensitivity options to ensure the stability and robustness of its parameters. A case is evaluated on a motorcycle engine crankcase production system, whose simulation results confirm that demand fluctuations can be compensated by PI controllers under a normal demand. PI controllers also possess low sensitivity to the distribution of production times.
