A major client needed to simulate the manufacturing and testing
process of complex CD/radio systems for the
automotive industry. Our system was to transport
units from the import module to each test
module. These items traveled on pallets and were
picked and placed by Yamaha Robotics. This
process was simulated with the objective of
producing a tested CD/radio every 16 seconds.
The simulation would show the quantity of
pallets required to populate the total
system and potential bottlenecks in transfer
areas.
SOLUTION:
Simcad Pro
Simulation software provided a model
containing nodes for each piece of equipment and
transfer device. Defining our in-house icons to
actually show the CD/radio traveling along the
transport system and overlaying our in-house
background provided the customer with the
feeling that we were actually in their plant
with a bird's eye view of their system.

"Using
Simcad Pro,
we were able to reveal exactly how bottlenecks resolved, and demonstrate how our implementation would provide the proper throughput required by our client. The total value of this project will exceed $1.8 Million - we now have the contract and purchase order."
