Abstract
A virtual manufacturing method represents the emerging approach that allows companies to improve their processes in order to introduce new products more quickly to their markets in a cost-effective manner. This involves building a synthetic and integrated environment based on software tools and systems, such as Virtual Reality and Simulation, to facilitate such processes. This paper presents the development of virtual industrial environment, highlighting the development and control of virtual industrial process for assembling computers by combining two simulation software tools. Development of industrial process was performed using Factory I/O software tool, while the control program was developed using FluidSim software tool. This paper also highlights the usage of OPC communication protocol, that was used for communication between software tools during simulation.
