SIMULATION OF A FLEXIBLE MANUFACTURING SYSTEM

The study describes the simulation testing conducted in connection with the expansion of the department of Audi Hungaria Motor Ltd. for manufacturing small-scale bodyworks, during which the future operation of an extremely complex manufacturing system was modelled. The reason for demand of modelling was the improvement of the manufacturing activity with the primary importance of revisionary investigation of the company conception. The modelling has been carried out by using the frame software Plant Simulation on base of own worked data structure and algorithm. The innovation of the application is that due to its data model developed it is able to simulate the future operation of the system, and determine the storage area dimensions and machine resource requirements necessary for the production.
