Abstract

This paper describes an interactive layout as the tool for redesign of intralogistics systems. The need of interactive layout was presented in context of Industry 4.0, Layout Planning and simulation. Material handling system, material flow and distance travel of material improve productivity and operational efficiency of production systems. The paper focuses on the approach based on milkrun systems. The main foundations of interactive layout such as workstation as basic object, addressing system, using templates, core 3D simulation are described. Proposed solution was implemented in FlexSim Discrete Events System environment.
