An Intelligent Simulation based case study of Indian Micro Small Medium Enterprise (MSME) of farm equipment manufacturing

Abstract

The manufacturing field is the area where application of simulation is an essential tool for validating the methods and architecture before applying them to factory shop floor. In this paper an Indian Micro Small Medium Enterprise (MSME) is taken into consideration, which manufactures agricultural equipment's with aim to mechanise the Indian farming techniques. Presented case study is authentic and adopted for Gahir Agro Industries situated in agricultural hub, state of Punjab. Proposed company is all set to launch a new farm equipment called 'Laser Land Leveller' which got approval from governing body and ready for its batch production because of seasonal demand. Present study encapsulates the modelling and simulation as tool for analysis of manufacturing process of laser land leveller and its predicted production levels under actual working conditions. Tool used for modelling and simulation is ARENA 15.1 by Rockwell Automation Studio.
