You wouldn’t think of buying a car without first taking it on a test drive; so why implement a new manufacturing logistics system without first testing it? With computer simulation modeling software you can do just that: test drive your material handling system configuration before finalizing the system design. When test driving a car, you want to select a route that best evaluates the car performance. Similarly, simulation models can be constructed to include the routes and operational attributes that support the objectives of the design analysis. Simulation modeling is a critical part of the system design engineering phase. A detailed simulation model is developed based on layout and operating parameters. PLC logic is simulated along with the logistics software. Mat
