Programs such as Tecnomatix Plant Simulation are tools that help us create or replicate a production department in a virtual environment. In the framework of this thesis, we focused on using the software for modeling production processes, with an emphasis on creating and ensuring logistics for transport in connection with the warehouse. After creating the model of the production department, we added an automated guided vehicle to the program and established a system based on which the vehicle performed its tasks. We then upgraded the system by implementing a sensor, which served as a point in the system under consideration where our vehicle continuously checked inventory through work processes and waited for the moment when additional parts would need to be transported to storage bins. This allowed us to achieve an optimized transportation system.
