Build your model: Create an environment and resources
In this Python tutorial, we will learn how to build a discrete-event simulation model to optimize the assembly line of an aircraft manufacturer. We will use the SimPy package to create an environment and manage resources.
Step 1: Define the Assembly Line Components
The main components of the aircraft assembly line are as follows:
- Fuselage
- Wings
- Empennage (the tail end)
- Power plant (engine and propeller)
- Landing gear
Each component has a different number of slots in the assembly line. The number of slots for each component is as follows:
- Fuselage: 3 slots
- Wings: 2 slots
- Empennage: 2 slots
- Power plant: 3 slots
- Landing gear: 3 slots
The assembly sequence must follow the order of Steps 1-4 as displayed in the following diagram:
Step 2: Create the Discrete-Event Model
Now, let’s create the SimPy model to simulate the assembly line.
In the above code, we defined the process durations for each step and created a dictionary called process_durations
to store this information. We also created the SimPy environment (env
) and defined the capacities of each step using the capacities
dictionary. Finally, we created the resources for each step using the simpy.Resource
class.
Step 3: Simulate the Assembly Line
Now that we have defined the environment and resources, let’s simulate the assembly line.
In the above code, we defined the assembly_line_process
function which represents the assembly line process. Inside the function, we used the request
context manager to request the resources for each step. We then used the yield
statement along with env.timeout
to simulate the process duration for each step.
Finally, we used env.process
to start the assembly line process and env.run
to run the simulation.
Step 4: Analyze the Results
Once the simulation is complete, we can analyze the results to evaluate the performance of the assembly line.
In the above code, we used the wait_time
attribute and len
function to calculate the total wait time, average wait time, and the number of completed processes for each step in the assembly line.
By analyzing these results, we can understand the performance of the assembly line and identify any bottlenecks or areas for improvement.
In this tutorial, we learned how to build a discrete-event simulation model for an aircraft assembly line using Python and SimPy. We created the environment, defined resources, simulated the assembly line, and analyzed the results.
