ABSTRACT

The XCELL+ Factory Modeling System has recently been extended with facilities to model automatic guided vehicle systems and power-and-free conveyor systems. This significantly expands the scope of problems that are susceptible to modeling in a graphical, menu-driven mode by non-simulation professionals. This paper summarizes the issues and solutions represented by these extensions to XCELL+.
