Proper visualization is key when presenting new and improved process improvement ideas to a prospective client or corporate audience. Often times, a proof of concept model becomes more feasible when the appropriate amount of visualization is used. Provide that “wow” factor at your next meeting using Simcad Pro and;
  • Assign custom images to resources, objects, processes.
  • Identify bottlenecks.
  • Watch Queues build.
  • Follow objects based on type/graphic.
  • Import a 2D or 3D CAD file.
Model View: (Shop Floor)
Simcad Pro provides multiple model views allowing for a truly custom presentation. Each model view supports full animation capability and can be defined separately while sharing process properties and constraints.
Process View:
Create your process flow using Simcad’s drag and drop interface. Default objects may be used or import your own image files for a custom presentation. Add annotations and create hyperlinks to embed documents or links into each process that are related to the model.
Value Stream View:
Monitor and make changes to inventory levels, process capacities, timings,… and instantly realize the implications of the proposed changes on the operation.
Value Network Map View:
Use the VNM View to identify product relationships, prioritize Kaizen events, and analyze the effect of change.
Process Maps And Swim Lanes:
3D View:
Using Simcad Pro Elite, creating a 3D replica of your operation has never been easier! Once the 2D flow is created, the 3D environment is automatically generated and moving to the custom 3D simulation environment is as simple as the “click” of a button. Make your next presentation unforgettable by utilizing Simcad Pro’s fully integrated 3D functionality to provide an accurate visual representation of your facility layout and operational flow.
  • Assign custom 3D images to resources, objects, processes.
  • Import a 2D or 3D CAD file to model a full facility build (multi-level)
  • Add elevations to conveyors or processes
  • Resource/Object follow feature
  • Understand room layout and perform spatial analysis
Bring your 3D Environment to Life
The Resource/Object follow feature allows the user to gain first hand perspective regarding travel distances and bottlenecks, by choosing a specific object or resource type to follow throughout the system. Watch as things progress in “real time” throughout the operational flow.
Custom 3D Imaging:
Create your process flow using Simcad Pro’s drag and drop interface. As with Simcad’s 2D modeling environment, default objects may be used, or for a custom presentation, just browse the Simcad library or your personal image files to assign the custom image of your choice.
As the user creates the process flow in the Simcad window, the animation is automatically created, both in 2D and 3D, providing a visual flow based on the state of the simulation engine. Assigning custom images in multiple 2D, 3D and CAD file formats is a simple as browsing through the image library or your personal image folders.
