Abstract: With the continuous deepening of the application of information technology in the manufacturing field, the informatization of manufacturing systems is developing from unit digital manufacturing to integration networked manufacturing, and then to the comprehensive digital, networked and intelligent manufacturing. As a comprehensive information technology integrating computer, model theory, and scientific computing, modeling & simulation technology plays an irreplaceable role during the development of manufacturing informatization and is widely applied in all phases of the whole product lifecycle, such as design, manufacturing, testing, maintenance, purchase, sales and other phase. This paper reviews and summarizes the research and application of modeling and simulation technology in manufacturing, and analyzes typical simulation techniques in manufacturing from aspects of manufacturing unit simulation, manufacturing integrated simulation and manufacturing intelligent simulation.

Key words: manufacturing, modeling & simulation, simulation for manufacturing
