The students learn the application of the event-driven and computer-based simulation for layout and operational improvement of production facilities by means of practical examples. The simulation provides an essential basis for digital twins in Industry 4.0.
Objective
The students learn the right use of (Who? When? How?) of the event-driven and computer-based simulation in the illustration of the operating procedures and the production facilities. The simulation is an important basis for creating a digital twin in the context of Industry 4.0. Operating simulation in the productions, logistic and scheduling will be shown by means of practical examples. The students should make their first experiences in the use of computer-based simulation.
Content
- Application and application areas of the event-driven simulation - Simulation in the context of Industry 4.0 (digital twin) - Exemplary application of a software tool (Technomatrix-Simulation-Software) - Internal organisation and functionality of simulation tools - Procedure for application: optimizing, experimental design planning, analysis, data preparation - Controlling philosophies, emergency concepts, production in sequence, line production, rescheduling - Application on the facilities projecting
The knowledge is enhanced by practice-oriented exercises and an excursion. A guest speaker will present a practical example.
