As the central equipment industry, shipbuilding holds the balance in the national economic. China’s shipbuilding industry has developed quickly in recent years——having been ranked on the third of the list in the world for consecutive years in the past. As the competition in this market becomes more and more severe, the enterprises of this industry will be more challenged. As for this complex manufacturing industry, in order to achieve the objective of becoming the top shipbuilding base, priority should be given to the improvement of production management level of shipbuilding and optimization of production logistics system.
This paper is mainly researching on the tube production system for Shipbuilding Enterprise and analyzing the current situation in this field at home and abroad. The paper detailedly introduces the production logistics system of the tube processing in certain shipbuilding enterprise. On the basis of the research on the current tube production system, a production line for the middle steel tube. Then this article emulates the model of the production system based on the flexsim simulation system, and analyses the simulation model. Then the improvement measures are put forward through the result of the analysis of the simulation. Finally, this text summarizes the full text and all the work has been done.
