Simulation of the production process

The article analyzes the “Production” business process of a woodworking plant to build a simulation model based on it. This direction of the enterprise requires analysis in order to predict the lead time of production, increase the output per unit of time, as well as increase the equipment usage value. For each process, random variables are allocated. A simulation model was built in the AnyLogic modeling environment using the Enterprise Library. An optimization experiment with a developed enterprise model made it possible to study the behavior of the model under given conditions. On the basis of the conducted simulation, the “weak” points of the enterprise were identified, due to which the lead time increases and the number of products decreases. It is conclusion, it is advisable to introduce quality control of products at the exit of each production phase (peeling and drying, pressing, processing), which will reduce the percentage of low-quality products at the exit of the process.
