CASE STUDIES
Ford Motors – Case Study
Ford uses a SIMUL8-based ASP application in its Factory Information System. This integrated, server-based system can perform both line and area bottleneck analysis.
Sytem outputs include:
- Bottlenecks in the order that they should be removed from the system
- The marginal benefit obtained from removing each bottleneck
Enabling Ford to analyze current performance, and isolate/analyze bottlenecks.
Intier Seating & Interior Systems – Case Study
Intier uses SIMUL8 as a stand-alone system to model the production rates of its lines in order to determine required space:
- Line-side
- For inventory in its warehouses
- For Finished Goods
Using SIMUL8, Intier was able to determine the amount of warehouse space required for its operations, warehouse space allocation, and the placement of new lines, based on their space requirements.
