The laboratory deals with the key aspect of production logistics (inventory management, material flow, arrangement of machines/workplaces in the plant, storing systems and distribution in production, and optimisation of these and other logistic issues).
The laboratory emphasises the subject matter of logistic technologies, e.g. scanning and identification devices and their online connection to PC programs so that they can react in real time and imrpove thus the decision making process. For these purposes, the laboratory has a significant number of scanning and identification devices as well as notebooks able to generate legible and analysable files for some of the software types installed (Excel, Plant Simulation, Witness, etc.). The basic principles of scanning and identification devices operation (bar code, RFID, QR code, etc.) are explained in deatil in the beginning of each training/course.
There are also other programs used, they allow execute more integral and complex logistic analysis of a production plant, system or process, and all of them are used together withh simulation software (RobotStudio, CATIA V5, Process Simulate, etc.) with focus to obtain more realistic simulations of real life situations in the production.
