- Title
DISCRETE MATERIAL FLOW MANAGEMENT IN MULTIPOLAR MANUFACTURING NETWORKS.
- Authors
Popa, C. L.; Cotet, C. E.
- Abstract
In the paper we will present a multipolar manufacturing network simulation using a new approach in discrete material flow management. We validate this aproach using a case study of three partners network acting in a virtual enterprise architecture, analyzed in order to optimize the manufacturing design. Two of them represent product suppliers, and the third represents the enterprise where the assembling will take place, after which the final product will result. In order to evaluate the architecture of the system, we used simulation models of the material flow for the three FMS, using the Witness software. The purpose of the simulation is to introduce our new methodology for multipolar distributed simulation of the material flow in the manufacturing networks in order to optimise the activity between partners and to increase the profit.
