Training Programme on “Manufacturing Simulation Using Arena”

The Staff Development Committee of the Engineering Department organised a presentation on “Manufacturing Simulation Using Arena” on 8 July 2019 for the faculty members from Mechanical Engineering Section.

The Arena modelling system is a flexible and powerful tool that allows analysts to create animated simulation models that accurately represent virtually any system. Arena employs an object-oriented design for entirely graphical model development. Simulation analysts place graphical objects called modules on a layout in order to define system components such as machines, operators, and material handling devices. Dr V. Sivananth introduced Arena Software and discussed in detail how to use the software for manufacturing shop floor problems in industry. The programme was well received by the participants and encouraged the speaker for hands-on training in the next academic year.
