Simcad Pro

Simcad Pro simulation software is a product of CreateASoft, Inc which is used for simulating process based environments such as manufacturing, supply lines, logistics, healthcare, and many others.[1] The on-the-fly, interactive dynamic process simulation software has a patented no coding modeling environment.[2] It is a tool used for planning, organizing, optimizing, and engineering real process based systems. Simcad Pro allows the creation of a computer model, which can be manipulated by the user and represents a real environment. Using the model, it is possible to test for efficiency in any scenario possible, as well as locate points of improvement among the process flow. Simcad Pro's dynamic computer model also allows for changes to occur while the model is running for a fully realistic simulation. It is also able to be integrated with live and historical data.[3]

Building a model

Simcad Pro has a user friendly graphical user interface for model building. No coding is required to build a model, and the entire model can be built and edited using the graphical user interface, including any advanced model characteristics. In addition to this, Simcad Pro allows for data import from almost any data source, including Microsoft Access, Excel, Visio, and SQL Server databases for easier model creation. Simcad Pro also supports real-time tracking using devices including RFID tags and barcode scanners. Simulations can then be viewed in either 2D or 3D visualizations.[4]

Areas of use

Any industry engaged in a process flow-type environment can use Simcad Pro to model their operations. The main areas where Simcad Pro is used include manufacturing, supply chain logistics, military, and healthcare. Simcad Pro can be used to simulate operations such as:

  • Assembly line modeling and simulation
  • Manufacturing simulation and optimization
  • Lean analysis and value stream mapping
  • In process inventory and WIP Reduction analysis
  • Hospital simulation
  • Patient flow simulation
  • Emergency department simulation
  • Schedule Optimization and Schedule adherence
  • Warehouse simulation and optimization (Receiving, Picking, Replenishment, staging...)
  • Warehouse man power analysis and simulation
  • Logistics and supply chain simulation
  • Automation simulation and validation
  • Guided Vehicles, ASRS, and Robotics simulation and modeling
  • Material Handling simulation
  • Administrative workflow simulation
  • Optimization and modeling of any Process based environment.
