Although this is the original application of the methodology, it is not commonly used today for such purposes. Most people nowadays prefer a different world view for the description of factory automation processes, namely that of a process-oriented discrete event simulation, as this world view allows us to study better phenomena such as deadlock and starvation in a system.
Typical tools for such purposes would include ARENA, and there exists also a Modelica implementation of that tool and modeling methodology, called the ARENALib.
