At Production Support 56, we specialise in process improvement and manufacturing simulation. We have modelled many production lines and generally find that when a line is up to speed that it is relatively efficient. The more fruitful opportunities to improve…
My background is in process improvement, and I started modelling factory simulations over ten years ago. I first used modelling to help evaluate and justify improvement projects and then used it to help validate scale-up plans. As a factory simulation…
In this article I present a case study demonstrating the application of manufacturing simulation for plant design. In fact, the best time to optimise a new manufacturing plant is in the design phase. There are no costly equipment modifications, no…
