Cost estimation in combination with simulation results
The plastics processing industry is one of the most energy-intensive industries and faces the challenge of becoming more efficient, more environmentally friendly, more sustainable and at the same time saving costs. Many questions arise:
- What is the best way for my own company to proceed?
- In which areas can I find support?
- How can I identify potential savings?
- What adjustments do I need to make to increase energy efficiency?
Now SIGMASOFT® offers through SIGMAecon the possibility to extend the process simulation with a realistic cost calculation. This tool offers the possibility of cost estimation in direct combination with simulation results. This allows the best compromise between quality, process and costs to be found quickly, as quality, productivity and resources are considered simultaneously.
Detailed knowledge of your own production processes and how they can be optimized is important. However, it is often even more important to know your own manufacturing costs. For example, does a (supposed) optimization result in lower costs due to less cycle time? Or do the costs increase due to higher energy consumption?
SIGMAecon – COST ESTIMATION IN COMBINATION WITH SIMULATION RESULTS TO FIND THE BEST COMPROMISE BETWEEN QUALITY, PROCESS AND COSTS.
Winning a deal often depends on an competetive sales price. However, making such a project a lasting success requires precise knowledge of your own costs in advance. During the quotation phase, SIGMASOFT® can be used to quickly check and optimize a few important scenarios. Precise predictions of times, material or pressure requirements, flow diagrams etc. can thus be given as well-founded reference points to the calculation for price determination.
SIGMAecon is taking your project a step further!
SIGMAecon takes this one step further and allows the user to precisely determine the component costs of the process being simulated and its optimization variants. Modified thermal concepts (such as the use of hot or cold runner technology or additional insulation) are not only considered in terms of additional costs or material savings, but also in relation to the energy used.
