The
Factory in Computer
The
complexity of
automating plants is increasing constantly. Accordingly, the expense
for
planning and control increases. At the same time, the planning security
decreases.
Hence there is a deviation between the planned and realised plant.
The
market is forced to be
flexible in warehousing and material flow. The increasing pressure of
time with
innovation or transformation makes the parallel development of product
and
production system inevitable.
For
the planning, analysis
and control of complex plants, the field of Production System developed
a
interactive graphical factory simulator SIMFLEX/3D.
With the help of Simulators, a team of
engineers
develops the Simulation’s model of your plant from the CAD
layout based on VDI
recommendations 3633. With experiments from the layout, the control
strategies
and operational parameters are changed until an optimal plant
configuration and
desired throughput is reached. |
