Regarding such plants, having a given complexity based on a rigid concatenation of heterogeneous sub-processes with heavy goods to be transported, conventional measures such as Lean Management principles involve great efforts in execution. Therefore, an IT solution for planning and controlling the operational processes is to be developed. This solution will be implemented through simulation-supported optimization to support dealing with a higher complexity and setting up a more resource-efficient manufacturing process. As a basis, a corresponding factory is mapped sufficiently accurate in every detail in a discrete event analysis (DEA) model. In this paper, a methodology, how to configure an arbitrary calcium silicate masonry unit (CS) plant in a simulation model, is presented for the first time. Relevant data is cataloged and modelling approaches for the controlling methods are pointed out. Special regard is paid to optimization measures at the crucial point of the transition from bulk material to piece goods, which has not been regarded yet in discrete event simulation modelling. The major aspect is a comparison of a unit-based approach and a variable-controlled approach, regarding the runtime. A case study follows conclusively, which aided in validating the methodology by simulating various scenarios. As a result, several strategic and operational optimization potentials were identified.

A1 - Schuderer, Peter A1 - Franke, Jörg T1 - Green Cockpit: Transparency on Energy Consumption in Manufacturing Companies JF - Procedia CIRP N2 - Companies are forced by rising energy costs to seize control of their energy consumption to maintain contestability. There-fore, transparency over the companies’ energy flux along the production process is required. Energy data management software is helpful, but cost-intensive. Hence, especially small and medium sized enterprises (SME) spare this investment. In this paper, the requirements for an energy controlling infrastructure in SME are elaborated, followed by a deduced software-architecture which supports the respective controlling structure. Further, the prototypical realization of the corresponding tool “Green-Cockpit” will be presented. The free of cost, open source and web-based tool is designed to help companies monitor, interpret, analyze, plan and report their energy consumption. The Green Cockpit tool outperforms other energy management software at management disciplines with its ability to not only analyze energy consumption, but plan and control it additionally.

Since the amount of renewable energy supply is immanently subject of variation, the electricity price at the European Energy Exchange EEX is highly volatile. If companies would purchase the electricity directly at the EEX instead of from a wholesale power supplier along with price fixing, companies would benefit from increasing production in times with low electricity costs and reducing production in high-cost times. This paper shows, that influencing respectively shifting the time of electricity consumption –e.g. by adjustment of process parameter, shift period, order of jobs or machine utilization, by pausing of processes or delaying of job starts – can theoretically reduce electricity expenditures. The measures are being explained and discussed, followed by a description of company in-house and external requirements for the energy flexible production.

In order to overcome the separation between the planning and operational levels in traditional production planning and control systems, this paper presents a validated concept to react immediately to critical events while maintaining efficiency using a modular, rolling-reactive optimization tool. A substantial difference to conventional rescheduling models is the intensive integration of event-discrete simulation, which delivers more realistic results and reduces the threat of an obsolete model due to simple modelling.

Tugger trains are an energy-efficient possibility to handle intralogistics material supply due to the bundling of transport volumes but reaches its limits in the proposed automotive manufacturing environments. The spatial nearness of the production units and the necessity of a high-frequented and small-scaled supply lead to the application of small-scaled autonomous transport entities. The main disadvantage of this technology in turn is a higher intralogistics traffic. Therefore, the concluded concept of this paper connects the advantages of both technologies.
