At a time when the margins for consumer goods are shrinking and production is becoming more complex, producing and selling more products does not necessarily lead to greater profit, certainly not if manufacturing operations are running inefficiently. Building products with inefficient manufacturing operations means that companies are throwing away money.

Understanding the throughput of individual lines or the entire factory is critical for manufacturers today, as is the understanding of how material will move throughout the facility. Equipment placement and access are difficult to assess using conventional factory layout tools, and inefficiency can ripple throughout a factory and its production systems without proper communication among the diverse teams involved in the layout planning process.

We offer a completely integrated factory line design solution built on a manufacturing data management backbone. Our tools digitalize the entire manufacturing process, giving you the ability to optimize the factory layout based upon data obtained during the planning and analysis phases of production engineering. Our solution will allow you to maximize productivity, increase profitability and determine the best way to realize your products.
