| Abstract |
This paper proposes green production preparation using a digital eco-factory. When a digital eco-factory is used, green performance is examined in addition to productivity and manufacturability at the same time. A digital eco-factory shows green performance with various granularities such as machine level, product level and factory level. A digital eco-factory is a virtual factory and IT platform for sustainable production planning. In a digital eco-factory, the production scenario is examined by simulating manufacturing processes. The digital eco-factory is configured on a digital factory. The digital factory is constructed by applying multi agent technology. In the digital factory, all factory elements such as machine tools and assembly machines are configured as software agents. A digital factory mirrors the structure of the actual factory. At the usage stage, the user of a digital eco-factory can easily customize configuration of the factory, target production scenario, granularity of simulation parameters, etc. (C) 2013 The Authors.
