Model, simulate, explore and optimize production systems for material flow, throughput, resource utilization and logistics at all levels of manufacturing planning.
Plant Simulation X Advanced builds upon the Standard product, incorporating several advanced statistical simulation capabilities to model, simulate, explore and optimize production systems and their processes for material flow, throughput, resource utilization, energy usage and logistics at all levels of manufacturing planning and factory design with an unlimited model size.
Validate and optimize material flow, throughput and overall system performance with a high level of confidence prior to production. The integrated digital manufacturing tools allow you to import 3D CAD models, optimize resource management and enhance decision-making processes in manufacturing and logistics planning.
Simulate, validate and optimize Create 3D visualization models of the highest complexity to simulate, explore and optimize production systems and their processes for material flow, throughput, resource utilization, energy usage and logistics at all levels of manufacturing planning and factory design. Optimize material flow, resource utilization and logistics for all levels of plant planning—from global production facilities and local plants to specific lines. Enhance 3D simulation models by importing CAD data directly to build a realistic digital twin of production.
Explore and analyze Accurately model logistics and production systems to explore their characteristics and optimize their performance. The digital model enables you to run experiments and what-if scenarios without disturbing an existing production system or—when used in the planning process—long before the real system is installed. Extensive analysis tools, statistics and charts let you evaluate different manufacturing scenarios and make fast, reliable decisions in the early stages of production planning. Validate part routing and gain a comprehensive view of machine states, facilitating better decision-making and production management.
Simulation analysis Streamline emulation processes, enhance data analysis and improve overall usability by using comprehensive, built-in analysis tools.
Cost analyzer Assess and analyze costs associated with various components and processes within the simulation model to help identify cost drivers, evaluate cost-saving opportunities, and optimize resource allocation for improved economic efficiency.
Energy analyzer Monitor and evaluate energy consumption across different components and processes to help identify areas for energy efficiency improvements, support sustainability goals, and optimize energy usage to reduce operational costs.
Sequential sampler Perform sequential studies to determine target value confidence intervals, helping adjust observation numbers to achieve desired precision and handling of long warm-up periods effectively.
Streamline data exchange Leverage integration with technologies like ActiveX, C-Interface, MQTT, ODBC, OPC UA, PLCSIM Advanced, SIMIT, SQL for Oracle, and Socket to enable direct access to third-party code, database integration, and efficient data transfer, enhancing real-time simulation and monitoring.
