Head of Manufacture
Plant Director

Typical participant

Head of Production
IT Data Center
Process Designer

To whom do we recommend?

Those, who are in manufacturing industry, light industry
Where the economical environment has changed as generally the product range extended, while the individual orders volume decreased
For new plant design
To understand the true capacity and the impact of system changes, analyze resource utilizations

Aim of the project

To find an optimal product order, while minimizing the packaging process time. To avoid delays caused by non efficient production order. To aid the company in design of production process.

Packaging simulation and optimization

Technical content

The project is based on discrete event simulation. A mathematical model is built to describe the real life processes, while simulation helps to understand the underlying mechanism of the modeled situation. The computer aided method is also used to find the optimal actions in predefinied decision points.

Results

Past years production history analysis
Specific algorithm to find the optimal production order
Result validation with creating a simulation model for the whole packaging factory
Software for everyday use in design of production
Significant reduction of packaging time

DOs and DON’Ts

Provide the most detailed data
Continuous communication with the analysts
Adopt innovation in every level of the company (from employees to managers)

Don’t

Expect future telling
There are always mistakes in data, which are needet to be corrected

Packaging
On the picture we can follow the process from making to packing. We can see how products travel from station to station on conveyors. Meanwhile the simulation provides data about the stations.

Why we are different

Market leader in simulation
In 2010 Thesys has become an official partner of Rockwell Software, exclusively distributing the Arena simulation software in Central and Eastern Europe
Over the project the combination of mathematics, simulation and software development was applied. With highly qualified colleges, it resulted in efficient, feasible, and usable solution to a real life problem
