Currently, the emission of greenhouse gases by humanity is a critical factor for global warming, creating the need to develop more sustainable technologies. In terms of transport, hydrogen-powered vehicles stand out, a project that emerged a few decades ago, but has not yet been fully implemented, mainly due to the need for specific tanks to store the gas in the vehicle. Therefore, this work seeks to describe and model the essential stages of the manufacturing process of a hydrogen tank, following as a reference those used in Toyota Mirai cars. Starting from the description through Petri Nets, the main characteristics and requirements of a hydrogen tank manufacturing plant were schematized and then converted to Ladder.
