Improving Decision-Making, Modeling System Scenarios, and Reducing Implementation Risk

PMC offers Simulation Services to clients across various industries including manufacturing, automotive, and warehousing. Simulation models created in 2D or 3D help identify and manage potential issues and bottlenecks in the system. The ability to test processes and play out different scenarios before implementation helps avoid costly mistakes and enables informed decision-making.

Simulation facilitates the evaluation of various metrics such as performance, processing speed, capacity, and staffing requirements for planning purposes. It also provides visual representations that allow for comparison and assessment of different space scenarios.

Applications & Benefits of Industrial Engineering Simulation

Using simulation modeling to plan and optimize warehouse layouts, operations, and systems can help reduce labor and equipment costs by maximizing storage, product movement, and process flow in virtual environments. This approach also enables businesses to adapt to operational needs and forecast future requirements.

Ergonomics Simulation

  • Evaluate employee ergonomic data
  • Identify areas for potential improvement in workspaces
  • Utilize "what-if" scenarios to determine optimal ergonomic enhancements

Material Flow and Material Handling Optimization

  • Generate and evaluate "what-if" process flow scenarios.
  • Use simulation to anticipate and prevent equipment maintenance issues.
  • Identify and address bottlenecks in material, information, and product flows.

Robotics Simulation Services

  • Utilize 'what-if' scenarios to prevent human collisions and optimize employee placement
  • Implement predictive maintenance strategies to reduce downtime and equipment failure
  • Enhance layout, logistics, and material placement for improved efficiency.

Automated Guided Vehicles (AGV) Simulation

  • Collect data to enable predictive maintenance planning
  • Optimize logistics by planning AGV routes
  • Enhance safety in human workspaces

Conveyor Simulation Consulting

  • Test system behavior in a virtual environment before implementing changes in real life
  • Evaluate control logic, merge logic, and robot interactions to optimize system performance.

Layout Optimization Services

  • Utilize for pre-planning or to work with current conditions
  • Optimize inventory and process flow through virtual scenarios

Resource Optimization

  • Optimize the use of resources and material through mapping -
  • Balance production lines, plan inventory, and allocate staff

Warehouse Simulation

  • Visualize traffic routes within the warehouse to avoid congestion and collisions
  • Plan storage, docks, AGVs, and product placement for optimized flow.

Throughput Analysis Services

  • Analyze the flow of materials and the utilization of resources
  • Detect bottlenecks and assess machine operation capacities
  • Consider supply chain and business processes
