SIMUL8

What do you like best?

Simul8 provides user manual with some tutorials which is very beneficial for the beginners. Simul8 is user-friendly, easy to handle, Easy Access to spreadsheets, Visual Basics Scripts to build the Simulation model, Simulation objects and their properties and attributes. Simul8 provides the Database connections through ODBC. Simul8 can useful for Manufacturing and Assembly lines for both solid and Liquid products. One can control the speed of Simulation from very slow to very fast withought lagging or affecting to the computer speed. Simul8 can analyze the Utilization percentage, Bottlenecks, Throughputs and Cycle time. Scripting is very easy to write and also provided with intellisense. Graphs are available and also easy access to all KPIs.

What do you dislike?

Simulation Objects are not much attractive.

What problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you realized?

I am using Simul8 for Digital manufacturing World. Using the Simulation model I can easily calculate Throughput, Cycle time, Machine and Operator Utilization of the manufacturing and Assembly lines. I am applied simulation model to analyze the bottlenecks in production of Various Automobile parts, Food industries and Chemical Industries. I have also used Simul8 for Lean Production planning and Lean Material planning.
