“…On the other hand, Balakirsky [39] utilized USARSim ® , version UT3VB1.5, Source-Forge Company, San Diego, CA, USA, to explore the role of the simulation to compare to what point the automation metrics could calibrate the quality of a pallet; the simulator allowed studying the interconnection between hidden internal boxes and parameters that could not be determined by mere statistics. Likewise, Guan et al [40] used simulation to evaluate the shipment of assembly line components in a digital factory based on the process analysis of the pallet dynamic demands.…”

The proposal in the present research study is the result of a more than two-year process developed in a pallet manufacturing company for anchor enterprises in Southern Sonora, Mexico dedicated to beer production and export to the United States of America. Considering the high pallet demand for this supplier, a strategic plan was created in 2021, establishing an important project for developing technological solutions to improve decision making supported by graphical user interface and focused on sustainability. This study shows the application of system dynamics in all the wood and pallet manufacturing processes with a strategic sourcing supply chain. The method used for its development had the following stages: (1) developing the mapping process; (2) creating the causal loop diagram; (3) developing a flow and stock model with the representing mathematical equations; (4) simulating and validating current scenarios; (5) evaluating normal, optimistic, and pessimistic scenarios with multicriteria decision making using Technique to Order Preferences by Similarity and the Ideal Solution (TOPSIS) and Faire Un Choix Adéquat (FUCA); (6) building the graphical interface. The most relevant results for the company were having quantitative information regarding the pallet demand required by the main client for wood availability, which was the main restriction in the supply chain. The solution was based on four validation tests that allowed decision makers to support the production proposals considering the assistance of the dynamic models. The main conclusion demonstrated that using well-defined operation rules and policies—considering the installed capacity and pallet demand through the model solution—allows anticipating decisions on pallet quantity and reducing the risk of out-of-time deliveries.

“…DELMIA's 3D simulation has been widely used in aircraft assembly, automobile body assembly, ship virtual assembly and other aspects [10][11]. Errors in product design, tooling design and process design should be found early before the product is put into actual production to reduce the rework and scrap of the product [12][13][14][15][16].…”

With the development of the economy and the innovation of technology, enterprises are eager to have higher, efficient, energy-saving and environmental protection technology applied in the cutting process. There are a lot of problems in the cutting process right now, For example, there will be uneven cutting section, Cutting dust debris splashing around causes environmental pollution and other problems. So, it is still necessary to constantly improve the cutting equipment. This paper studies the simulation of plasma cutting machine based on DELMIA. The cutting path in AUTOCAD is imported into DELMIA, and the cutting nozzle is simulated according to this path. At the same time, the second development of DELMIA is conducted based on VB language. The information of different steel plates can be automatically matched with the cutting nozzle type, cutting speed, etc., and is associated with the motion speed in DELMIA software. Seek the shortest cutting path, reduce the empty path, increase the effective cutting working time, so as to improve the cutting efficiency; And take into account environmental protection to reduce pollution and reduce noise.

“…The application of virtual reality in order to present a methodology for the requirement analysis of holonic manufacturing system design is shown in [13]. It is also possible to simulate the operation of a production line and estimate the number of pallets in workshops [14]. We can find many different applications of simulation to analyse the operation of production systems and transportation subsystems.…”

In this paper, a method for the automatic creation of bidirectional paths for AGVs in the Delmia QUEST software application is presented. The layout of transportation subsystem can be prepared in a spreadsheet. Based on it the file with input data is generated. Using programming languages included in QUEST, procedures were created and based on these procedures, a macro was built. This macro allows reading input data from the file and creates the transportation paths automatically. This enables the simulation model building to be less time consuming.
