An emulation is a simulation model which is hooked up to a PLC controller that controls the equipment and devices in the model. The model acts like a line or a system on a manufacturing floor and communicates accordingly with the PLC controllers. The main goal of an emulation model is to debug the PLC [...]
In their series, Using Emulation to Enhance Simulation (June 2011), Christy and Mati discussed how to assure a return on investment by expanding the lifetime of a simulation with emulation. This post will elaborate on an additional step to expand the lifetime of emulation though training. At E2M, we use the term emulation to describe [...]

We’ve finally reached the last part of the To Buffer or Not to Buffer series! We hope you’ve enjoyed it so far, and today is the grand finale. We’ll be covering the advantages of OEE and simulations in buffering decisions and rounding out our information and findings on buffering in general. Our OEE sheet analysis and FlowSim [...]

Today we’ll continue talking about the wonders of FlowSim! You can turn a very complex decision into a simple, obvious choice with this tool, so it’s imminently useful. It also helps you maximize efficiency. Read on to learn more. By changing such variables as the rate of production, size and placement of buffer, and length [...]

Simulation can increase your decision confidence. It’s impossible to know the future until it becomes the present, but wouldn’t it be nice to know that you’re at least heading in the right direction? More advanced models can increase accuracy even further. The following excerpt discusses E2M‘s very useful (and exclusive) FlowSim models. Simulation can increase confidence in [...]

Being certain about your data quality is always important; an entire line can go down if you’re just a few numbers off. That’s why E2m determines the Overall Equipment Effectiveness of your lines and identifies bottlenecks with precision. You won’t find our proprietary analysis tools anywhere else, so read on to learn more. Get assurance about the [...]

Manufacturing can be a tricky business. All of the machinery has to run in near-perfect harmony and precision, and most everything happens very quickly. Buffering can potentially smooth out your line’s operation, but even this can require much thought and understanding to get right. Fortunately, E2M understands buffering very well. Here’s Part 1 of a [...]

Here’s an update from the first annual Demo3D User Group Meeting, courtesy of our very own Mati Chessin! Christy and I had a blast at the first (and hopefully annual) Demo3D User Group Meeting in Salt Lake City last month. We were there as presenters giving a talk on our standard approach to emulation projects, [...]
