Abstract: |
Planning
a new logistics center is a quite difficult job. Depending on the
requirements there are a great number of possible design versions. The
planner has to consider not only the present but also the future
requirements. Up to now, the planner decides on the basis of experience which
system will perform the requested services best. This paper illustrates the
redesign of a new order-picking system in industry supported by a simulation
tool of our institute designed especially for the rough planning. With the
described project the road capability of the applied simulation concept is
underlined. Several versions based on the requirements were investigated and
evaluated. Key figures are calculated and a recommendation depending on performance
and arising expenses is given. |
