Industrie 4.0, Sensorintegration und Data-Analytics sind nur einige der Schlagworte, die in den letzten Jahren verstärkt diskutiert wurden. Doch wie werden diese Themen in das Produktionsumfeld integriert und welcher wirtschaftliche Nutzen kann aus den Möglichkeiten günstigerer Hard- und Software gezogen werden?
Discrete Event Simulation (DES) is a well-known approach to simulate production environments. However it was rarely used for operative planning processes and to our knowledge never in terms of multiple disposition levels.In this paper we develop the necessary adjustments to use DES for this purpose and show some theoretical advantages.
Many ERP systems support configurable materials. Due to an ever increasing number of product variants the benefits of this approach are well understood. However, these implementations are not standardized. In this article we propose a new standard interface for the exchange of configuration data. This would lead to further benefits as systems as Advanced Planning systems could better use manufacturing flexibility while web shops as Amazon could easily integrate manufacturers of complex products with much reduced implementation effort.
