Modeling for ScenarioSimulation in a Mold Production Workshop

Abstract

Abstract: Due to the complexity of mold production process, it is very difficult to model operation flows in a workshop by using a mathematical model. However, the operational state of mold manufacturing system can be visualized by simulation with objectoriented technology. Furthermore, interface can be developed between the simulation system and the ERP production management subsystem such that realtime data can be used to drive the simulation system. With this idea in mind, a scenariosimulation prototype system is developed. With this system, simulation can be made to reflect the reality by adjusting the systemparameters online. By simulation, one can estimates the completion date of a mold order. This date can be used as due date in order processing. This system has been tested in a mold manufacturing company and results show that it is effective and reliable.

Key words: mold production, modeling for simulation, due date estimation
