Abstract—The basic premise of this paper was to study the general principles of multi-task scheduling and controlling in the logistics center, specifically taking the AGV (Automated Guided Vehicle) as an example, setting the three-dimensional models of the equipments through MDT. This study established the relationships between the downstream equipments and the upstream equipments in Flexsim, taking the equipment layout into account and realizing the multi-task scheduling and controlling in the simulation model. As a result we got the visualization simulation models of a cigarette factory accessories distribution system and the simulation data which would support the further optimization process. This article provided a practical method which made a contribution in solving the problem that how to reproduce the reality system task scheduling and controlling strategy into the simulation models. In this way, it made a meaningful attempt of exploring the simulation method of tasks scheduling and controlling in the logistics center.
