Factory design and plant optimization are increasingly complex and capital-intensive. That's why factory design projects require a great deal of modeling, analysis, and program management to ensure acceptable system performance after implementation.
PMC specializes in modeling and analysis in all aspects of factory design and optimization from 3D design and visualization to material flow analysis and layout optimization, to material handling system design, to plant simulation. Whether you need assessment, consulting, program management, software, or training, PMC provides a comprehensive set of services to help your success with factory design and optimization.
Benefits of PMC's factory design solutions include: 
-
Reduced non-value added time in facility design
-
Reduced risk prior to equipment installation or commissioning
-
Minimized indirect labor
-
Improved communication
-
Competitive differentiation for systems integrators and AEC firms
-
Reduced non-value added time in factory logistics analysis and optimization
What makes PMC's factory design solutions unique is the in-depth expertise with best-in-class design software from Autodesk and Siemens PLM.
Siemens Tecnomatix Factory Design and Optimization Suite
Tecnomatix’s Plant Design and Optimization solution gives you 3D parametric-based smart objects to layout efficient factories faster. Utilizing 3D for factory layout also increases your ability to find design flaws during the planning process and not on the factory floor. Material flow, handling, logistics, and indirect labor can all be optimized using material flow analysis and discrete event simulation. These resource optimization techniques analyze things like part routing information and equipment capabilities against your factory layout. Even material storage needs and part packaging information can be used.
You can also manage your factory layout environment with standardized resources in a shared data environment. Collectively, these capabilities promote increased planning accuracy and efficiency. This helps you to minimize capital investments and maximize production efficiency.
Tecnomatix factory design tools include: FactoryCAD, FactoryFlow, Plant Simulation, and In Context Editor.
