Experiment # 1

DRILLLING CENTER ARENA MODEL

Objective: To introduce basic process arena modules

Apparatus:
1. Laptop/computer
2. ARENA software 10.0

Procedure:
Assume that parts arrive at a drilling center where a drilling machine process parts. Create a
model in ARENA with the following data:

Interarrival time Process time Run length Base time units

Random: Exp (5) Triangular (1, 3, 6) 480 minutes of 24 Minutes
minutes minutes hours per day

1. CREATE Parts Arrival

2. Drag Create module in the arena window and we enter time between arrival

3. Enter the PROCESS MACHINING details

4. Drag Process module in the arena window and we add resource and enter value of
process time.

5. Drag the DISPOSE Module: to Dispose the Parts

6. In run setup project parameter we add the value of Replication length, hours per
day, and Number of replications.
