Plant Simulation
Tecnomatix Plant Simulation supports discrete-event modelling of factories, logistics and throughput.
On the software discovery list. Connector development and release dates have not been announced.
Workflow ideas
Model a production line
Begin with the selected part, stock, machine or cell layout. In the intended Plant Simulation preview, model a production line; the visible result is a process setup with work coordinates, resources and target geometry visible. Review orientation, reach, tooling and fixture assumptions before accepting or exporting it.
Run throughput experiments
Use the chosen operations, tools or robot tasks. In the intended Plant Simulation preview, run throughput experiments; the visible result is a generated path or production sequence over the same setup. Review clearance, collisions, limits, feeds and operation order before accepting or exporting it.
Identify queues and constraints
Start from the simulated material removal, robot motion or process results. In the intended Plant Simulation preview, identify queues and constraints; the visible result is a verification view with remaining stock, reach or cycle data exposed. Review collisions, code target, cycle time and safe human approval before accepting or exporting it.
