The lack of integration between simulation and Computer Aided Design (CAD) has limited the use of simulation in many facilities planning projects until now. In the past, the simulation modeler was given a facility layout drawn with a CAD system. Using this layout as a reference, the modeler built a simulation model and created a partial or complete animation layout. This was very time consuming, redundant, and sometimes technically impossible. Recent advances in hardware, operating systems, and simulation software technologies now provide opportunities for significant productivity and quality improvements in utilizing CAD drawings as backgrounds or icons for animation of simulation models. Modelers can not only drastically y reduce the time to create animations but also reduce the time to incorporate frequent layout changes into a simulation model during the design phase of a project. This paper describes the process of integrating simulation models with CAD generated facility layouts and highlights the implementation issues such as file formats, scaling, model resolution, and dynamic depiction.
