The course Plant Simulation Basics, Methods, and Strategies introduces users (both with professional and standard licenses) to Plant Simulation and its basic functionalities. Participants are guided through a series of exercises to create a simulation model that covers all the main aspects of modeling in Plant Simulation. The course also addresses the topics of customizing the operating logic of objects and models through programming and the creation of custom methods (in Simtalk).
• Introduction to discrete event simulation: application fields, objectives, and underlying methodology
• Plant Simulation interface
• Object-oriented modeling strategies
• Material Flow objects library: Station and buffer
• Hierarchical models and graphical customization of icons and layout
• Classes, Instances, and inheritance
• Modeling of buffers and assembly lines
• Modeling of stochasticity: failures, availability, MTTR, MTBF
• Material Flow objects library: main objects and their use
• Modeling of conveyors and rollers (length-oriented objects)
• Resource objects library: operators, shifts, etc.
• Information Flow objects library: information flow management, production plans, cycles, etc.
• User Interface objects library: input/output interfaces, graphs, and indicators
• Analysis tools: Sankey, bottleneck analyzer, and experiment manager
• Customization of logic: introduction to programming in Plant Simulation
• Use of Simtalk: main methods of objects, functions, structures, etc.
• Debugger and profiler
• Data acquisition
• Use of Simtalk for data collection and result evaluation.
• Typical use cases
• Use of Simtalk and Plant Simulation interfaces with Excel, DDE, etc.
The course is aimed at business professionals, students, technicians, engineers, and programming enthusiasts who wish to acquire practical skills in software development and the use of Plant Simulator.
Participants will be able to create, execute, and evaluate a simulation model of a typical manufacturing plant.
Upon completion of the course, participants will be able to build and utilize simulation models for production systems, analyzing flows, resources, and bottlenecks. They will be capable of testing various scenarios, evaluating plant performance, and supporting operational decisions through the use of simulation tools and model customization.
Knowledge of the production processes to be simulated and the fundamentals of programming in any language.
