Abstract

As the necessity of lowering the energy consumption of manufacturing plants rises, the possibility to optimize a planned production hall becomes more and more important. Therefore the research project INFO, a project of the Vienna University of Technology in cooperation with industry partners and supported by the FFG, the Austrian Research Promotion Agency, creates an overall simulation of a cutting factory. This work deals with one aspect of such a simulation by studying the possibilities of coupling different partial models in one simulator. First the two partial models are built and their simulation results are compared to measurement data. The models are kept very simple to avoid numerical problems that could emerge from having an equation system that is too big. Then the two models are coupled and the problems that arise are analysed.
