“…Mardberg [48] introduced a novel digital factory layout tool that optimizes the layout of machines while taking into account human factors and ergonomics. This model contains the following components: the properties of the devices, their mutual relationships, the distances travelled by workers or AGVs, and other constraints (e.g., the placements of electric outlets).…”

Nowadays, digital twins exist everywhere in various fields. However, an analysis of existing applications in manufacturing and logistics revealed that many entirely apply the concept. To identify when a complete implementation of the concept is beneficial, we analyse the need and the implications within production logistics. This study also presents an architecture supporting integrating a digital twin into production logistics and a corresponding application scenario. Based on this, we have derived practical applications. Each application is applied to different situations, and actual benefits can overcome the limitations of the previous studies.

“…In the simulation process, hierarchical simulation experiments can be designed to compare the combination schemes and select the best combination [ 10 ]. After the combination of simulation and layout tool, the equipment can be arranged under space limitation, and then the optimal logistics route can be obtained [ 11 ]. This method is effective in the optimization of actual production system.…”

Based on the existing plant layout and process flow, a simulation analysis was conducted using the Plant Simulation platform with the utilization efficiency of each station and production capacity of the dismantling system as indicators. A problem with long-term suspension in the disassembly process was determined. Based on the two optimization directions of increasing material transportation equipment and expanding the buffer capacity, a cost-oriented optimization model is established. A genetic algorithm and model simulation were used to solve the model. An optimization scheme that satisfies the production needs and has the lowest cost is proposed. The results show that the optimized dismantling system solves the suspended work problem at the dismantling station and a significant improvement in productivity and station utilization efficiency compared with the previous system.
