Overview

F-Plan The F-Plan system is a short term planning module from the integrated control system for the machine-building manufacture. The core part of the module is the simulation system. The F-Plan system allows the user to define and modify production plan variants based on the order information model and available resources information. Plan modifications could be done according to the current production state. The planing variations could be achieved by varying the large set of information model parameters (resource model, orders model, etc.). During the creation of the short term planing assignment it is possible to use the predefined set of priority rules as well as extend the system by writing custom priority rules and plug them to the system. The F-Plan could be relatively easily integrated to the different production control system. F-Plan is a C++ based application developed for MS Windows operating system using ODBC technology to access the relational database.

The main design of simualation algorithms and general system architecture for FPlan was done by Dr. Ing. Vladymyr Nechypurenko and Dr. Hubert K�rtge.

You can download and install the trial version (with limited functionality). Please follow the instructions below to install the FPlan.

FPlan demo installation procedure

  1. Download zip file with distribution from here. This archive contains FPlan demo executables and sample database
  2. Uncompress this file using pkzip utility to any directory on your hard disk
  3. Configure your ODBC driver to provide access to the demo database as following:
  4. Run FPlan by clickin F_plan.exe file
  5. The main window with the name "Planungsmodell" will be opened automatically and all the necessary fields will be filled with default values
  6. Click Terminierung button to start simulation process
  7. Use toolbar buttons to open different windows where you can get different views on simulation results as well as change the default settings to rerun simulation
