Pricing

From 329 euros per month and per user for the Professional version and 969 euros per month and per user for the Premium version.

With the help of the WipSim flow simulator, the first four months of the project were dedicated to an in-depth study of workstations and operations. This included analyzing operation times versus setup times, selecting equipment, prioritizing SMED projects, duplicating tools, and more—all aimed at optimally designing the future production lines.

“Sky is the limit!

Only our imagination sets the boundaries. With WipSim, everything we envision can be simulated.”

“The nominal WIP level at each stage was calibrated using the WipSim simulator, allowing for the immediate detection of floating bottlenecks.

By controlling the total number of boxes in circulation, we can manage overall WIP and thus reduce lead times. The health of the line and any potential accumulation points are permanently visible to everyone.”

Frequently asked questions about WipSim simulator

A workshop simulator allows you to forecast how your line will respond in terms of throughtputs and lead times, from the current resources you have and the articles you need to produce.

You will identify the ideal batch sizes and works in process quantity to launch as a minimum for your more important machines to be efficient.

It will indicate you the forecast overall equipment effectiveness for each resource, as well as the workcenters where you have to increase the load to increase the throughtputs.

You will be able to test improvement scenarios, for example a quick tool shift (SMED) or quality actions, in order to be ensured of their rentability before launching the actions on the field.

You only need an access license to the software, and train one or several users. It is an efficient solution if you have several CONWIP actions to implement progressively on your site. It also allows you to regularly recalibrate your lines, forecast their future performances and therefore optimize the production of new pieces or the arrival of new workcenters.

The WipSim simulator is accessible in web mode with a browser. It doesn’t need any download on your servers or computers, and no support from your IT services.

this access mode is optimized and flexible, and allows you to have a taylor-made use of WipSim, according to your precise needs.

You can choose between 3 months, 6 months licenses or a yearly subscription to the WipSim simulator. You also can take a 3-month license, take a break and then take it up later according to your needs.

The WipSim simulator has been designed to be directly used by the field experts. There is no need to be a flow simulation or IT specialist to use it.

Directly accessible in Saas mode with a simple Internet browser, it doesn’t generate extra workkoad for your company’s  IT services.
