Abstract
Abstract Nowadays there are commercial tools and academic solutions that support and contribute to Virtual Commissioning (VC). However, the main obstacle which hinders the broader application of VC in practice is the modeling time and effort required to create a proper simulation model. The modeling is also separated from the current project development lifecycle. This paper presents a semi-automatic method to transform the 3D geometry model of a production cell into a simulation-enabled virtual representation (i. e., a high fidelity simulation model of the cell). The geometry is combined with dynamic behavior which is a behavior description modeled intuitively based on VDI 2860. The entire method is embedded into a virtual commissioning workflow and is exemplified by a production cell with conveyors. Several commercial modeling and simulation tools are used and combined in the workflow to demonstrate the applicability. The presented methodology bases on AutomationML.
