Virtual Manufacturing: Simulating Reality

Synopsis: Looks at the use of computer simulations in the design and development of manufacturing systems. Explores the potential of the interactive human/computer environment and discuses the benefits of creating a 3-D virtual factory to analyse where an assembly layout should be modified in an effort to prove out its manufacturing processes. Shows how simulation can assist in studying the movement of individual parts, planning capacity, and the design and redesign of systems and work cells, and even the training of operators.
