Our discrete event simulations are being developed using best international simulation software provided by Simul8 Corporation. This software help us protect your business by analysing the impact of new, “what-if” business ideas, rules, and strategies before implementation on live customers—offline, without causing disruptions in service.

There is literally no limit to what can be simulated. Usually costly material handling or manufacturing systems are good candidates for simulation. The modelling efforts allow a system to be built and tested on a computer at a minimal cost compared to putting actual equipment out on the floor and testing it. Some examples of the types of systems for simulation modelling are explained below.

The scope of our Simulation Models extend to all the following Industries:

1. Manufacturing
2. Airports
3. Business
4. Healthcare
5. Public Sector
6. Supply Chain
7. Energy
8. Justice
9. Call Centers
10. Case Studies
11. Materials Handling
12. Mining
13. Ports
14. Smelting
15. Warehousing
16. Miscellaneous

We can help you determine answers to your questions such as Work-in-progress, call abandon rates, customer wait times, equipment utilization, completed products count, cycle times and labour utilization.

Simulation modelling is a very important tool in delivering a total system that will meet the needs of the customer on the day of start up and well into the future.

The Purpose of Simulation Modelling

The purpose of simulation modelling is to reduce risk and costs through efficient and accurate system installations that do not require expensive modifications when the systems are supposed to have already been up and running. Simulations serve a constructive purpose through the entire cycle of a system’s life; from the original concepts to the observation of daily operations of an installed system. A proper simulation can be used for the testing of concepts or designs; providing animations of systems; examining systems operational characteristics or performing experimentation.

The role of simulation modelling can be divided in the three essential categories of Sales and Conception, Design Verification, and Experimentation.

Sales and Conception

• Emphasis on animation
• Animation allows proposed system to be seen in action
• A clear understanding of the system can be derived
• Proven concepts can be shown
• A rough verification can be performed on system design

Design Verification

• Highly detailed simulation model
• Emulates the system design and control to be as close to actual as possible
• Allows the system design to be tested to verify that it will meet throughput goals
• Statistics can be gathered on almost any aspect of the system ranging from overall throughput to specific machine or resource utilizations
• Actual data and schedules can be incorporated in the simulation model

Experimentation

• The most valuable portion of a simulation study to customer and system design engineers
• “What if” scenarios can be built into the base simulation model
• Sensitivity analysis for equipment (sort machines, buffers, accumulation)
• Effects of changes in system design or control may be studied and viewed
• A user interface can be developed to allow easy manipulation of model input data and chart separate model results

The value of a valid and proper simulation model is priceless. When a system is run and understood via a simulation model it will save time and money for the system vendor and user. Having the right staff to build a simulation is the key. With the experience of PSC, you get that staff.
