Simulation Software Support of Manufacturing Processes in Engineering Industry

Summary/Abstract: Optimization of manufacturing processes is currently one of the most common optimization tasks in enterprises. The enterprises strive to ensure optimal consumption of inputs and choice of production methods, means and optimal use of production capacities. Nowadays, the tools of quality that are used for the engineering enterprises description or for the diagnostic analysis can be called ―Reaction Quality Tools". Allow us to answer the question "What Happened?" and then "Why did it happen?‖ To increase the autonomy of the manufacturing processes was used the simulation software Tecnomatix Plant Simulation, by which enterprises save costs and allows them using more variants and selects the optimum according to the selected criteria before the start of the production. The monitoring system allows not only to collect data from the production (information on whether the machine is or is not in operation, busy and idle, the number of produced pieces, etc.) but also to report various failures or undesirable effects.
