DAF Paintshop Buffer: improved process control
In order to synchronise the paintshop planning and the customer orders a logistic simulation study was performed by Ergo-Design. An UGS-Tecnomatix Plant Simulation software model of the DAF Cabin Factory (at Westerlo in Belgium) process was used for optimization. A number of what-if scenario's for the paint shop buffer were calculated. The influence of other hardware and different priority rules were determined. Result: a 15% less sequence disturbance and 8% less color changes. A reduction of costs and environmental load!
