TECNOMATIXTecnomatix Plant Simulationwhat-if scenarios without disturbing anexisting production system or – when usedin the planning process – long before thereal system is installed. Plant Simulationcontains powerful object-oriented architecture and modeling capabilities thatenable you to create and maintain evenhighly complex systems, includingadvanced control mechanisms. PlantSimulation’s user interface followsMicrosoft Windows standards, making iteasy for you to quickly become productive.Simulation models can be created quicklyby using components from applicationobject libraries dedicated to specific business processes. You can extend the librarywith your own objects through a powerfulprogramming environment for the furthering of simulation capabilities. Tools forautomatic optimization, analysis of simulation results and 3D visualization ofsimulation models are also available.Extensive analysis tools, statistics andcharts let users evaluate different manufacturing scenarios and make fast, reliabledecisions in the early stages of productionplanning.Plant Simulation helps users: Detect and eliminate problems thatotherwise would require cost- and timeconsuming correction measures duringproduction ramp-up Minimize the investment cost ofproduction lines without jeopardizingrequired output Optimize the performance of existingproduction systems by taking measuresthat have been verified in a simulationenvironment prior to implementationTecnomatix Plant SimulationValue Stream MappingVisualization, analysis and improvement ofdynamic value chains

Tecnomatix Plant Simulation ispart of the ManufacturingEngineering Software solutionoffering from Siemens PLMSoftware.Coordinated software components enable you to plan thecomplete production of a plantby way of a computer model tovisualize and simulate the processes in production lines,warehouses and workshops, soas to quickly, easily and safelyachieve the required findingsand results.The extensive portfolio allowsfor an optimized manufacturing process design lifecycle,including planning, factory layout design, and manufacturingprocesses and factory simulation, enabling the seamlessconnection with higher-levelplanning systems.ApproachTraditionally, the depiction of production isdone by way of manual, graphical sketching of the value stream using symbols on asheet of paper showing the conditions,such as material flow, information flow,inventories, value-added and non-valueadded activities. Based on customerdemand, inventory and cycle times, analysis of the current state of production isperformed as a team. Revision andimprovement of the value stream is thenderived from this current value streammapping of the production process.Value stream mapping is a standardizedmethod based on generally acceptedsymbols.Why perform value stream mapping inPlant Simulation? Reduction of cost for data collection byreducing the number of objectsdescribing the processes through predefined logic blocks Reduction in analysis effort throughautomated modulesThe traditional, static value stream analysisis extended to include the critical time element for stock availability.Through computer simulation, users canexamine the dynamic effects of the valuestream, which remain hidden in the static,paper-based mapping of the value chain.The dynamic material flow simulation inTecnomatix Plant Simulation permits thereduction of the number of products inproduction and thus the capital investmentrequired for robust production, ensuringthat natural fluctuations in production donot impair the ability to deliver.Thus, you can depict dynamic fluctuationsof the daily production due to lot sizes,setup procedures, product variations, orother disturbances.
