This article provides information on using computer simulation to optimise energy consumption in manufacturing. Simulation of energy consumption in operation is always performed to analyse large amounts of data. Results of computer simulation offer the possibility to analyse different scenarios of production or use of machines. Each of the variants brings different scenarios to optimise energy use in order to reduce costs and improve the operation. The article also describes the sequence of steps that a user can take to create a quality simulation model. At the same time, there are graphical examples of energy consumption measurements made during simulation runs.

Diamond embedded cutting saws (DCSs) are basic tools commonly used in every ornamental stone processing operation from the extraction of the quarry block to the finishing of tiles. Diamond particles are the hard and abrasive essential component that has to be well adhered to the saw matrix, whether metallic, ceramic or polymeric. This work presents a computer simulation analysis and experimental design for an optimized manufacturing process of DCSs. This discrete simulation assesses the basic parameters involved in a possible industrial production in order to maximize the dynamics of the system and operational rules needed for best final products.

Following a successful career in industry, Dr. Douglas V. Shick, a newly minted entrepreneur, established NRS Associates, LLC, to perform consulting services based on two highly technical computer-modeling programs. Doug was heavily involved in the development of one program, an innovative computer simulation software for modeling a particular manufacturing process, through intrapreneurial activity during his corporate experience. Doug established his business on September 1, 2001, and on September 10 announced his services by e-mail to everyone he knew. The unforeseen events of the next day, September 11, produced some unexpected aftereffects that Doug had to factor into his developing business.

The paper deals with the dependence of mold temperature on its cavity filling time for the production of lightweight profile applying the technology of extrusion into a mold. The introductory part is a brief theoretical analysis of the extrusion technology, viscosity of the melt and the nature of mold tempering. The following parts of this paper deal with the methodology of carrying out of experiments, analysis of the mold cavity filling process and determination of the dependence of mold temperature on its cavity filling time, which have been obtained based on a computer simulation and from a real manufacturing process.

Abstract Determining the parameters of the production system as well as the choice of the type of manufactured elements flow shall appoint the level of effectiveness of the manufacturing process. The article presents an example of implementation the simulation verification process of the production flow, taking into account system constraints. The basic stages of developing a simulation model in this process are discussed, taking into account the necessary information and input data. The results show the impact of the application selected flow scenarios on the level of generated costs and the duration of the manufacturing process. The process of assessing individual variants of the organization production was performed on the basis of the results obtained by computer simulation in the FlexSim simulation software.
