Visual Simulation
Visual Simulation Solutions
Discrete Event Simulation such as facility planning and process & logistics implementations are expensive and sometimes require significant prototyping and adjustments prior to actual operation. Virtual 3D environments that simulate facilities, or potential changes, are proven money and time savers by exhibiting problems during project design.
The Industry Problem:
- High facility and logistics operations costs: Inefficient facilities and logistics footprints drive costs of operation up significantly.
- High cost and time of designing and implementing new facilities/logistics footprints: Implementing new facilities without careful analysis will increase the cost and time to deployment.
- Late-project logistical changes cause unknown impact Changes are not analyzed before they are implemented, often causing significant lag before operations become efficient.
- Initiating new processes can impact costs and productivity: Implementing new processes without prototype test and evaluation can be costly on production goals.
The Anark Solution:
- 3D Process Simulation: Overview new or modified processes in action and incongruities before implementation.
- 3D Logistics Simulation: Full 3D simulation of current or future logistics footprint.
- Detailed viewing of key processing points and features.
- Uncover bottlenecks and direct logistics towards relieving constraints.
- 3D Facilities Simulation: Complete site simulation including static structures, working equipment, and commodities/products.
- New or Change Impact Analysis: Use enterprise-class interactive 3D to analyze changes to existing or new processes.
- Generic Discrete Event Simulation in 3D: Flexible Discrete Event simulation including a simulation executive, stochastic events, and analysis.
The Benefits:
- Reduce implementation costs with a better understanding of a proposed project.
- Decrease operating costs by providing more efficient logistics and facility implementations.
- Improve production by catching process errors earlier in implementation.
- Scale back physical mock-up costs.
