Completing this project ,was no easy and could not have been done without
the help of several key individuals ,I hope to convey my deep appreciation
and thank for all the help each of you have given me and made this key
learning experience for me . First of all I would like to thank Dr Sarabjit
Singh Prof. Industrial and production Department.

I specially thank them for sharing their knowledge of operation. All of them
made my stay at goal & it is enriching learning experience, the sweet
memories of which always remain with me.

Lastly I hope I have come up to expectation of everybody and my project is

successful one.
 What is simulation?
Simulation is the imitation of the operation of a real-world process or
system over time The act of simulating something first requires that a
model be developed; this model represents the key characteristics,
behaviour and functions of the selected physical or abstract system or
process. The model represents the system itself, whereas the simulation
represents the operation of the system over time.
Simulation is used in many contexts, such as simulation
of technology for performance optimization, safety
engineering, testing, training, education, and video games.
Often, computer experiments are used to study simulation models.
Simulation is also used with scientific modelling of natural systems or
human systems to gain insight into their functioning as in economics.
Simulation can be used to show the eventual real effects of alternative
conditions and courses of action. Simulation is also used when the real
system cannot be engaged, because it may not be accessible, or it may
be dangerous or unacceptable to engage, or it is being designed but not
yet built, or it may simply not exist
Key issues in simulation include acquisition of valid source information
about the relevant selection of key characteristics and behaviours, the
use of simplifying approximations and assumptions within the simulation,
and fidelity and validity of the simulation outcomes. Procedures and
protocols for model verification and validation are an ongoing field of
academic study, refinement, research and development in simulations
technology or practice, particularly in the field of computer simulation .
 What is flexSim software

FlexSim is 3D simulation software that models, simulates, predicts,

and visualizes systems in manufacturing, material handling,
healthcare, warehousing, mining, logistics, etc. It is both powerful
and user-friendly. FlexSim helps to optimize current and planned
processes, identify and decrease waste, reduce cost, and increase
revenue. At FlexSim Software Products our goal has been, and
always will be, to create the best simulation software.
FlexSim Software Products is different from other sim software
developers in that we are entirely focused on providing value to
you and your business. We listen attentively to customer needs
and invest the vast majority of our time and resources into
simulation software development instead of marketing and
advertisingall so our software can provide maximum value to our
customers. Our active user base and knowledgeable technical
support staff is ready and willing to help you make the most of your
simulation software experience. We know you want answers about
your business process, and we want to help you find them
 How could you use it
Manufacturing Simulation
Optimize floor space, elevate bottlenecks, minimize machine down time,
decrease operator idle time, and reduce inventory. Simulation software
helps identify and solve problems in your factory or plant.
FlexSim simulation software is a data-based improvement tool. It has
pre-built objects for most situations and extensibility for anything else.
There are many clients that have used FlexSim simulation software to
simulate their manufacturing environments.

Production or Assembly Simulation

What if we added another machine? What if we moved this process over
there? What if we had a new machine with less down-time in that
station? What if this operator was in charge of both machines?
Whether the plant is producing cereal or assembling automobiles,
FlexSim simulation software can identify, explore, and value potential
improvements. Learn more about FlexSim simulation softwar FlexSim
simulation software is used by these clients, and many more, to improve
their systems:

Lean/Six Sigma Simulation

Simulation software helps to identify the seven wastes in your system. It
can give insight in everything from the location and rate of inventory
buildup to how a layout change affects the amount of operator or product
movement. It can also show how a six sigma project that improves one
part of the system will affect the rest of the system. If you have more
questions about how simulation software has been used in systems that
use lean or six sigma
If you are using lean or six sigma to improve your system, then FlexSim
simulation software will be a powerful complimentary tool. FlexSim
simulation software makes it easy to test what-if scenarios and analyze
projects before you make any capital investments.Many clients use
FlexSim simulation software to contribute to Lean or Six Sigma problem-
solving techniques.
Conveyor Simulation
Conveyor systems have unique challenges and opportunities. The right
simulation software can help you identify areas of need and optimize the
flow through the conveyor system.
FlexSim simulation software is on the cutting edge of conveyor
simulation. With the powerful Conveyor Module, FlexSim has provided
features specific to conveyor simulation. To learn more about what
features are available, contact us or try FlexSim Express!
Conveyor simulation is important to many of our clients.

Bottling Line Simulation

How do we increase the throughput of our bottling line? How would a
new machine affect our system? Can we have an operator perform the
task at Station 100 and Station 410?
These are a few, of many, questions that FlexSim simulation software
can help answer in simulating bottling lines. With a 3D simulation
environment it is easier to solve problems and find opportunities.
Packaging Simulation
How does packaging affect our overall system? How should we design
the new packaging area? How can we package more effectively?
Packaging should be an efficient process that ensures your product
adds value for your customer.
FlexSim simulation software provides conveyors, material-handling
equipment, operators, and other prebuilt objects that allow you to
identify, test, and solve problems in packaging. Testing packaging in a
native 3D environment helps you understand visually and statistically
what is really happening.

Warehousing Simulation
Warehouses have specific system concerns. Whether it is cross dock,
break bulk, storage, or consolidation warehouse simulation software can
help make the processes within it more efficient.
FlexSim simulation software can help optimize warehouse space and
layout, identify ways to improve inventory turnover, or increase
productivity of picking operations. FlexSim has been used by many to
improve their warehousing operations and strategy.

Material Handling Simulation

Simulation software can help decrease the number of touches by

operators and optimize the movement in a material handling system. It
can increase picks/day and pick accuracy.
FlexSim simulation software is ideal for simulating material handling
environments. The 3D nature of the software helps identify and solve
problems within the nuisances of material handling.
FlexSim is used by many companies to improve their material handl
Benefits of Simulation
A simulation model is like a living blueprint of your system. It can be
updated and experimented on to answer all sorts of what if questions
about your system. In addition, simulation can:
IMPROVE COMMUNICATION BY VISUALIZING THE SYSTEM
IN STUNNING 3D.
DEMONSTRATE THE TRUE COST OF PROPOSED CHANGES
IN ORDER TO AVOID UNNECESSARY RISKS.
PROVIDE DETAILED STATISTICS AND DATA TO FIND THE
OPTIMAL SYSTEM CONFIGURATION.
ACCURATELY CAPTURE THE DYNAMIC NATURE OF A
SYSTEM BY ACCOUNTING FOR VARIABILITY.
