摘要
Due to increasing demands on efficiency, quality, and flexibility in manufacturing companies today, it has become very important to structure the development process of manufacturing systems. This process, for example, could be supported by using models, architectures, and simulation tools. The purpose of this paper is to outline the background to simulation in manufacturing engineering and give an overview of simulation software tools used for Computer-Aided Production Engineering. The paper discusses the features that are most important to consider before investing in such tools. A comprehensive overview of commercial simulation software tools is presented and future areas for research and development are discussed. (C) 1999 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
