DISCRETE EVENT SIMULATION Coursework Assignment Create the model and optimise the profit for the plant described in the following. You need to simulate ten days operation after an appropriate warm-up period. Description A manufacturing plant that produces gearboxes has to be designed and optimized. Each gearbox is composed of the following components: two gears, two bearings, and one casting. Gears are manufactured in a separate plant and arrive via a 20 m conveyor belt, according to a time distribution defined in the excel file or any appropriate distribution of your choice (such as a uniform distribution between 1 to 2.5 minutes). The conveyor is of a belt type, and gears have a footprint of 80 by 80 by 100 mm, and can be spaced on the conveyor 100 mm apart.
