When it comes to the design of parts or production processes, there is always room for improvement. The challenge for manufacturers is to figure out what to change in order to get the best results. Simulation software can assist with this process. Using simulations, manufacturers can create virtual representations of a part or process on a computer. This allows businesses to validate a product, process or improvement idea without needing to incur the full expense up front.

TEST IT OUT WITH A SIMULATION

Is your business: Tired of moving around heavy equipment and machinery to improve production, only to discover no improvements have been made? Looking to increase productivity, shorten lead times and minimize motion and transportation waste in your facility? Seeking a new way to test parts or situations?

SIMULATION CAN HELP BY:

  • Making improvements in the facility, without having to unnecessarily move heavy machinery. With simulation, manufacturers no longer have to disrupt production and move heavy equipment to find out if productivity can be improved. Instead, simulation software enables manufacturers to virtually test out different arrangements of their facility to determine which layout is optimal. Real-world conditions can be tested as well to simulate situations that may arise in production and analyze how they would unfold.

  • Enhancing overall production effectiveness. Once manufacturers have reorganized equipment according to the simulation to optimize processes, they will quickly begin to notice improvements in lead times, productivity and waste. These are advancements that otherwise would have been much more time consuming, expensive or even impossible to achieve without the help of simulation.

  • Testing new parts before investments are made. Similar to 3D printing, simulation allows manufacturers to develop and perfect designs for new parts prior to investing unnecessary resources. This results in cost savings as well as provides higher confidence and quality in designs.

Simulation makes it easy for manufacturers to improve productivity, without having to disrupt production or invest resources unnecessarily. For more information on how to get started with simulation, contact inquiry@the-center.org or call 888.414.6682.
