• Resumen

  • This research focuses on the design of a simulation of the process in a flexible manufacturing cell at the Faculty of Engineering of the Universidad Tecnológica de Pereira, aiming at measuring and choosing the one alternative of solution that improves to a greater degree the productivity of the current system using the results provided by the software Promodel. In order to do this, the stages of the simulation as definition of the system, model formulation, identification of variables, data collection, implementation and interpretation were used.As a result, the productivity was calculated taking into account the variables of the model and simulation time, at the same time the information from each of the locations was interpreted, finding the percentage of use and total number of entities for locations with unit capacity, and for locations with greater capacity there is information concerning to the percentage of empty time, partially occupied, full and unavailable regarding available time. In contrast to other simulations, in this design, on the networks the type of network Crane was used, associated to the resources of model. Which facilitates the movement of robot arms with the parts circulating through the system.
