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.
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.
