Research on Visual Simulation Technology Based on Manufacturing System

Manufacturing system is a complex discrete event system.In order to acquire economic benefit,enterprises must program and manage the system effectively.Applying visual simulation technology for study,the performance of manufacturing system can be acquired ahead of time and the whole system can be evaluated and optimized scientifically.In the paper,manufacturing system is taken as research object,connotation of visual simulation,three key factors of establishing visual simulation system and study flow of opening the system are researched systematically.At last,a general machining system is studied by visual simulation technology,adopting queuing network,event scheduling and painting-cleaning method respectively.Using the Visual Basic soft,visual simulation system based on the machining system is opened and bottle-necks of the system is found by adjusting the number of equipment in the visual interface and simulating repeatedly.The study case proved the validity of applying visual simulation technology on manufacturing system.
