Within a Lab setting, the issues of excessive wait time, excess travel time, low equipment utilization, and increased operational cost daily are always present. Within the lab setting, it is important to improve efficiency and to reduce lead time. Simcad Pro is a sophisticated simulation engine that can be utilized to improve the overall efficiency, accuracy and effectiveness within a laboratory, which in turn increases possible workload and monetary gains.

Automation Technologies Industries (ATI), a leader in factory automation, takes advantage of Simcad to demonstrate solution feasibility of a new conveyor line implementation for a major automotive manufacturer. The total value of this project will exceed $1.8 Million - we now have the contract and purchase order.

With the high level of activity going on within a warehouse, it is important to make every effort to reduce wait times, increase organization, optimize schedules and routes, and utilize equipment efficiently. Simcad Pro> allows the users to focus on the three building blocks of any distribution warehouse: receiving, picking and distribution. Simcad Pro's sophisticated dynamic simulation engine technology has enabled users to increase the overall efficiency of their warehouses, reduce wasted time and increase profits.

Ensuring Success with Simulation

Simulation is an approximation of reality, the level to which it mimics reality depends on the tool and method used to implement the simulation model. The closer the simulation model mimics reality, the better its results and analysis are, while the faster the model is built and validated the greater the return on investment.
