Abstract

This paper is based on specific applications of Material Flow Theory (MFT) in industrial engineering material flow management (MFM). The accent is put on exploring different possibilities to increase productivity and profit in processing architectures using the MFM approach based on virtual modelling and simulation. In this context the paper presents a case study using virtual modelling of a flexible processing architecture and MFM simulation algorithms for diagnosis and optimization. The virtual model of the processing architecture will be used as a tool for identifying and eliminating the flow concentrators and obtaining an improved productivity of the system.
