The recent availability of relatively inexpensive personal computers has created a market for personal engineering software tools. One such tool designed for animating as well simulating manufacturing lines and process, called PCModel, is reviewed in this paper. PCModel takes a unique approach to manufacturing simulation by providing you with an easily understood set of instructions allowing you to animate your process on a cost effective personal computer. Through animation, you, your co-workers, and management, can quickly see that the model represents the process being studied, and immediately observe the effect of parameter changes made from the keyboard.
