How to use simulation software to optimize the pet food production line?

With the development of society, the demand for various pet food for dogs, cats, and birds has increased sharply and is moving towards standardization and scale. In response to market demand, many companies have developed new pet food production lines. Pet food production line design reasonable, high degree of automation, stable performance, easy to operate. The product has the characteristics of novel shape, unique taste, rich nutrition, easy digestion, and so on, which is closer to the requirements of humans for pet food. Then, let's introduce in detail how to use simulation software to optimize the pet food production line?

Here is the content list:

• Production line layout

• Process simulation

• Optimizer in software

• Easy-to-use interface
  

Production line layout

The layout of the pet food production line for dog food production is to set up the layout of the pet food production line according to the space of the plant. The layout of the production line should address the production and processing area, buffer area, material storage area, and other operation units, solve the relative position between equipment and equipment, the horizontal area of the passage, and solve the material handling process and transportation methods.

The layout of the pet food production line for dog food production meets the requirements for dog food production. The production efficiency and time quota of each process are fully considered to meet the production balance of each process. Separate utilization of equipment capacity.

Process simulation

The process simulation of the pet food production line is to reproduce the product processing process in a virtual environment following the dog food processing technology. Process simulation mainly solves the problems of collision, interference, movement path, and human operation in the process of pet food production line.

Optimizer in software

Use the optimizer built into the production optimization software to set up a strategy pool for each production stage of the pet food production line, including food constraints, restrictions, and time frame parameters for each production stage. The optimizer acts as a global proxy and determines the strategies that can be used together with most effectively, and provides the user with the best decision.

Easy-to-use interface

When applying the model to the scheduling of a dog food production line, the end-user of the manufacturing simulation model will benefit from an easy-to-use interface. Using the Excel input file, they can specify requirements, production constraints, and extruder characteristics. After running the model, they will get a detailed timetable based on all the processes of the simulation and all the indicators shown in the chart.

With the simulation software in the dog food production line, engineers can integrate the Python analyzer into the model. It makes the post-processing of data easier. The user can return to the production simulation launcher and navigate to the Python query, which allows deeper visualization of specific cases and a better understanding of the simulation process.

In general, the production system simulation process of the dog food production line can be divided into three parts, simulation planning, modeling, and simulation optimization.
