Research of prospects of application of software environments of simulation modeling in the development and optimization of mechanical engineering production

Abstract

The article presents the results of the market research of applied simulation programs from the point of view of the possibility and expediency of using the latter in the development or optimization of technological processes at domestic machine-building enterprises. The features of technological processes of mechanical engineering and aircraft construction at domestic enterprises are analyzed. The features of the production of metal-intensive products and semi-finished products are studied from the point of view of the feasibility of simulation modeling of these processes. The expediency of conducting simulation modeling of machine-building industries is determined, which provides adequate analysis results at minimal cost compared to other modeling methods. The main criteria for selecting a specific simulation software are defined.
