... allocation by lines and sublines Lines’ and sublines’ capacities Line and packaging restrictions Warehouse limitations Production times Production schedules Outcome All simulation results segmented by month and SKU were exported to Excel. Additionally, the model presented changes in demand and inventory levels by month in histograms. It also gave information about stock-outs, in ...
Manufacturing cost reduction with the use of simulation — seven success stories
... that were implemented with the use of AnyLogic simulation models. A pet food manufacturer wanted to minimize production waste and maximize plant occupancy. For this purpose, engineers applied manufacturing simulation as a perfect approach for better production scheduling and bottleneck visualization. Using AnyLogic, the engineers created a model of the shop floor with the production line and linked all production phases. As a result, with the help of the simulation model, the manufacturer increased production ...
AnyLogic GSA Contract Schedule Award
... the benefits of simulation with AnyLogic. ” John Yedinak , Managing Director of AnyLogic North America. The GSA is an independent agency of the U.S. government whose purpose is to help manage and support basic functions of federal agencies. The GSA Schedule is a government-wide acquisition contract with a pre-negotiated list of products, prices and delivery terms available for use by a wide variety of federal customers and other approved entities. With the AnyLogic North America GSA Schedule Contract in place, any government official can now purchase through GSA Advantage or ...
Three years of scientific advancements from the Winter Simulation Conferences
... last few years were healthcare, manufacturing, and supply chains. Let us go deeper into these studies. Manufacturing In the following paper, the researchers presented a flow shop simulation model developed with AnyLogic software. The aim was to solve production scheduling problems under uncertainty, which had been derived from a real industrial use case of a supplier in the automotive industry. The production scheduling solution showed that the combination of data analysis to estimate the flow shop model parameters,...
The future of human resource management using simulation modeling
... businesses resolve using simulation Workforce optimization helps businesses to properly utilize human resources and accomplish tasks with a high level of productivity. The following success stories will show you how you can organize the labor, understand its productivity, optimize costs for staff, and schedule the shifts using simulation modeling. Organizing labor Grocery retailers wanted to know the staffing required to operate their micro-fulfillment centers. It was challenging to organize the labor necessary for a system that includes both automated ...
