Smarter Planning for a Competitive Edge
In today’s global manufacturing environment, rising costs, compressed timelines, and complex supply chains put increasing pressure on production efficiency. Lost productivity, inefficient schedules, poor resource allocation, and fragmented optimization can cost companies millions each year.To stay competitive, manufacturers must embrace data-driven decision-making—whether planning new production lines, introducing lean practices like Just-in-Time (JIT) and Just-in-Sequence (JIS), or managing global production networks.
What is Tecnomatix Plant Simulation?
Tecnomatix Plant Simulation is a powerful discrete-event simulation software that enables you to create digital twins of production systems and logistics operations. With these digital models, you can:
- Run experiments and what-if scenarios without disrupting live operations.
- Optimize performance in advance—long before physical systems are built.
- Identify and eliminate bottlenecks with advanced analysis tools.
- Make faster, smarter decisions using real-time statistics and scenario comparisons.
By simulating processes before implementation, you reduce risk, lower costs, and ensure your production systems are optimized for speed, quality, and profitability.
Key Capabilities
- Object-Oriented Modeling with Hierarchical Structures – Build scalable, modular simulations that mirror your operations.
- Open Architecture with Standard Interfaces – Integrates seamlessly with ERP, MES, and PLM systems.
- Extensive Libraries and Object Management – Speed up model creation and standardization.
- AI & Genetic Algorithm Optimization – Automatically discover optimal configurations for complex systems.
- Automated Data Analysis – Generate statistics, bottleneck reports, and KPIs instantly.
- HTML-Based Report Builder – Share results easily across teams and management.
Business Benefits
Plant Simulation isn’t just about modeling—it’s about delivering measurable results across your manufacturing network:
- 3–6% savings upon initial investment.
- 15–20% increase in existing system productivity.
- 5–20% reduction in new system costs.
