Abstract:

The traditional technology of simulation modeling does not satisfy the requirements of simulation for com-plicated manufacturing' process due to the long product line and the complicated control process. In order to solve this problem , a 3D graphic simulation modeling mechanism oriented to manufacturing process is presented after the investigation into the structural characteristics and running mode of assembly-type manufacturing , followed by the corresponding implementation method. In the investigation , the object-oriented design method and the virtual simu-lation technology are fully adopted. As a result , a visual 3D graphic simulation platform is developed from the view-point of application level. The proposed system can realize the computer simulation of the shop layout in manufac-turing process and can help the designer to choose the best design scheme of the shop floor.

Key words: 3D simulation, shop-floor management, virtual manufacture, discrete system
