Bottleneck and System Performance Analysis
Hidden constraints can limit system efficiency. Identifying and addressing bottlenecks helps improve throughput and maximize system performance.
Challenges
- Hidden constraints: What is limiting system performance?
- Throughput limitations: How can system output be increased without adding new resources?
- Efficiency improvements: Where should efforts be focused to maximize impact?
How Simulation Helps
- Identifies bottlenecks and evaluates their impact on the system.
- Simulates alternative solutions, such as process adjustments or layout modifications.
- Provides data-driven insights for optimizing system performance.
Expected Results
- Higher throughput without unnecessary capital investment.
- Reduced cycle times by eliminating bottlenecks.
- Improved overall equipment effectiveness (OEE).
