Frequently asked questions about WipSim simulator
In which contexts to use a line 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.
How to use the WipSim simulator autonomously?
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.
Does the WipSim simulator need a computer download?
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.
Which duration for a access license to the WipSim simulator ?
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.
Is it necessary to know simulation techniques to use WipSim?
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.
