Abstract

Currently, the development of complex automated production stations will almost be impossible without the use of computer aided simulation. So as to increase the reliability of such simulations, the simulation models must depict the reality as much as possible. Including the physical properties of the elements in the models allows for an increase in realism of the simulation. One of the aspects in this field is the pneumatic behavior of pneumatic drives. Using physics based simulation approaches of the video game industry, a real-time assembly station simulation for the virtual commissioning considering the pneumatic behavior of the pneumatic drive was developed. This paper presents how the underlying model was developed and the extent to which different simulation factors have an influence on the pneumatic behavior.
