The answer is yes.It just depends on how you set up the simulation.

Some recent papers being somewhat in support of this:

DOI:10.1115/IMECE2013-63546

Thanks.. Does it mean that I can simulate the working of a process, in terms of steps involved?

Hi, there are some softwares to modeling process,  Promodel, Arena, Simio, I usually use Promodel or Arena.

You can use DELMIA software also for better simulation of the NC machining process as it gives the simulation in real time too. In addition to this you can also analyse the results obtained and fine tune the process as you desire.

Thank You for your replies..

Flexsim is absolutely enable to simulate a process. furthermore production line simulation is another capability of Flexsim.
