Abstract: This paper described a methodology to simulate production activities by using object-oriented programming language. Simulation of production to be modeled are the production activities in a workshop. The first step of modelling was defining objects that constitute the main part of a machining center. The main part of machining-center which was being modeled are column spindle, pallet fixture, pallet changer and tool magazine. From these objects can be created a new object that was an object of machining center. The next step was modeling pallet stocker and stacker crane. Pallet Stocker is a container used to store the workpiece or product on the pallet. A stocker crane is a device used to move a workpiece from the pallet stocker to a machining center or vice versa. The final step was modeling a workshop in which there are some machining centers, pallet stocker and stocker crane. Object modeled can be used to simulate a workpiece transfer activity undertaken by stacker crane from the pallet stocker to the machining center.
