Resumen
Automation is a process of change inherent in technological development in production systems, so the study and analysis to carry it out is necessary to avoid incurring high costs and expenses, since its design and study can benefit the organization. With the development of Industry 4.0, innovation and industrial development have increased in favor of the implementation of smart industries. This project shows the development of a tool that integrates and communicates computer-aided design software and one for the simulation of discrete events. This integration allows the simulation of a logical software sequence (DES) that governs the movement and actuation of the operations of a geometric model developed in CAD environments for the study of automation projects that provides advantages in terms of analysis and development in the integrated design process. For the implementation of this tool, a review is made of the available software and data communication methods that allow the information from the two applications to be used in the development of automation projects. With this, the software, data communication media and the programming language are selected, in order to offer a tool that integrates the resources of the CAD and DES applications, allowing the visualization of the control system managing the actuation of the components of a machine. Finally, the operation of AutoSolid is verified by means of an applied example postulated by the authors in which compliance with all the functional requirements of the tool is evidenced.
