The design of a manufacturing system requires modeling and performance evaluation techniques. This paper is focused to a stochastic Petri net approach for the modeling and simulation of a manufacturing system. The stochastic Petri net model is implemented in Petri Net Toolbox under MATLAB environment. It is achieved the graphic construction of the net. Therefore, it is validated the net topology, the evolution of (their dynamics), as well as the structural and behavioral properties (corresponding to checking if resources usage is stable and the model have no deadlocks). Some global performance indicators are determined in order to evaluate the performance of the manufacturing system.
