Eliminate Factory Update Guesswork

Eliminate Factory Update Guesswork

Keeping today’s production facilities up-to-date and running at optimum capacity is no easy feat. Any change or update often triggers a cascade of associated changes, so updates must be thoughtfully planned out. When that change requires a shutdown, time is of the essence and every misstep comes with a big price.

Fortunately, virtual factory simulation software enables companies of all sizes to leverage their own data to create full digital replicas, or digital twins, of their factories. Using virtual tools, they can simulate the impact of changes before they are made in the real world.

Read this white paper to learn how planning facility updates virtually can:

  • Reduce costs and improve decision-making
  • Increase agility and adaptability to respond to market changes
  • Improve worker safety and ergonomics
  • Create better training and onboarding

Behlen Streamlines Factory Flow with Virtual Twin

Behlen Streamlines Factory Flow with Virtual Twin

It’s never too late to reinvent yourself. Just ask Behlen Manufacturing, a company that’s been in business since 1936. The company is retooling its nearly one-million-square-foot facility in Columbus, Nebraska, using a virtual twin of its facility created with Factory Simulation Engineer, a new solution in the 3DEXPERIENCE Works portfolio.

Using this new virtual factory planning software, the company was able to fully optimize its production and assembly facility virtually—before ever moving a single piece of equipment. They were able to identify ways to optimize, streamline, and improve efficiency, productivity, and factory flow within the facility without incurring the cost of physical move iterations.

Optimizing Facility Layouts with a Virtual Twin

Making physical changes to the layout of a production facility can take months. A lot of thoughtful planning and work, such as moving one piece of equipment, often triggers multiple other changes to accommodate that move.

With Factory Simulation Engineer, part of the 3DEXPERIENCE Works Manufacturing portfolio, manufacturers can virtually plan changes to factory layouts — all without moving a single piece of equipment or machinery. Learn how you can virtually plan your next move with Factory Simulation Engineer.
