Abstract
Commonly, the employment of material flow simulation tools in the steelwork industry is limited to the tactical mid-term and strategical long-term planning tasks. This paper describes an approach how the simulations strengths can be adapted to contribute to short-term planning. By executing iterative simulation runs based on real-time production data automatic planning guidance is generated. This procedure lowers the reaction time and improves the overall planning quality because of steadily updated base data generated by a real-time capable interface. It is shown how historical data is utilized to enhance the data input for future planning tasks using machine learning algorithms.
