This paper deals with assumption that simulation is the only reliable method for manufacturing and assembly systems profiling. Simulation is essential software tool that improve design and planning of complex automated manufacturing and assembly systems. Systems with high level of complexity need to be tested even before they are constructed in real manufacturing plant. Elimination of errors in production before the first test production is initiated means huge savings in expenses and time. In this article are mentioned theoretical base of topic and example as a case study. For case study was used software Tecnomatix plant simulation from company SIEMENS.
