Introduction to the job of the engineer in conception, planning, specification, and management of units and plants in mass production.Presentation of Process Oriented Analysis as a tool for the design of automated, interlinked production lines.Introduction to the development, production, and the commercial aspects of automated manufacturing plants, as a preparation for further courses in the

The students learn the application of the event-based and computer-based simulation for layout and improvement of production facilities by means of practical examples and by using the so-called «Digital Twin» within the context of «Industry 4.0». They learn how virtual and mixed reality tools can be used together with the Digital Twin to plan and support the operation of a production line.

The students learn the usage of the event-driven Simulation for layout and operational optimisation of production lines by means of practical examples.
