6.2 Simulation Model Details
165
timer unit from the controller and install it in front of the main switch. Thus,
the machine does not have to remain in standby but can be switched off. Additionally, after completion of the production, it is necessary to leave the machine
in idle or manual state for about 60 minutes. A water separation operation is
required to separate the lubricants and oil of previous production steps that have
been washed of the parts from the cleaning liquid. Setup processes for all machines, required to produce different product variants, are generally performed in
manual mode. All restrictions are taken over into the simulation model, to be able
to depict a realistic production scenario. The final simulation model is shown in
Figure 6.6. To generate a lucid model, the energy flows are first separated per line
in flow 1 and flow 2, before they run together in the total energy consumption
stock element.
