A cased goods Conveyor simulator

摘要

The SIMSCRIPT Conveyor Program (SIMCON) models the flow of cased goods through an accumulating powered belt conveyor system. The program is almost totally general with all configuration descriptions and parameters being read into the model as input data. The model has been used to test proposed changes to existing systems, to design totally new systems, to study the effects of several variables, and to model new concepts in cased goods merging. The quantitative results have been used in the decision process for many multi-million dollar conveyor networks.
