Production planning has become more complex and more critical as GETRAG FORD Transmissions works to reduce costs and speed time-to-market. Production planning has become more complex following move to agile manufacturing cell structure Production planning needed improvement to speed time-to-market. Siemens Planners provide design colleagues with computer simulations of manufacturing processes in manufacturing bottlenecks and underused machines are identified via simulation with new tools and manufacturing processes are simulated prior to purchase decision.
