Predictive simulation, a key component of every smart manufacturing strategy, gives manufacturers insight into existing processes enabling future production and supply chain operations to be planned with unparalleled certainty.
New technology and innovation is driving rapid change across the manufacturing sector. The digitisation and connectivity of manufacturing assets are creating the potential to meet customer needs with greater flexibility, faster time to market and reduced production costs. Unfortunately, investment requirements and payback periods lack clarity. These risks, disruptive competitors, and volatile markets are often prohibiting the evolution of manufacturing businesses.
Predictive simulation is an ideal starting point for manufacturers who wish to take advantage of modern IIoT/Industry4.0 technologies. By turning risks into clear opportunities, quantifying and controlling variability, highlighting and exploiting the projected value digitisation can bring to your businesses and accurately forecasting when an ROI on smart manufacturing technologies can be expected, simulation removes the barriers preventing change.

Take your management planning and continuous improvement initiatives to the next level with a predictive digital twin, a cyber-physical representation of your factory that gives life to your digitised devices and data.
Connect your models with live data streams straight from your production equipment, an MEP or IoT service layer to experience a visually rich representation of real world processes that can be played forward in time to understand future outcomes and performance.
These digital twins are unrivaled at engaging project stakeholders, effectively communicating how proposed process, technology and people changes will achieve your business goals.

Predictive simulation models can be used to develop, test and optimise production schedules. By linking with live data systems, exceptions such as line faults, breakdowns, labor shortages, etc., can trigger predictive simulations to recalculate the new optimum process logic and reschedule production.
A predictive simulation model acts as a sandbox for Lean and SixSigma initiatives to be designed, piloted, stress tested and optimised - all without disrupting current production. Avoid costly tactics that simply shift bottlenecks further down the production line and move continuous improvements strategies to a holistic business level.
Predictive simulation technology allows companies to factor in ALL of the complex resource and process variables that manufacturing cells are subjected to when planning new equipment installations, layouts, workforce, sub-assembly processes, cranes, forklifts and more. Simulation allows for detailed analysis and experimentation to determine what business processes, resources and investments are required to achieve growth strategies and meet customer demand at appropriate costs.
Leave the competition far behind and win new business with a customer experience built on openess and trust. Immerse your customers in your business and sell more by delivering manufacturing services with accurate production forecasts, transparent operations plans and engaging visuals showing how you operate.
Assess how new cells, lines and supply chain activities that are required to support new products will impact your current facility operations and production. A predictive simulation can help develop cost models, implementation plans, risk analysis and help get new products to market faster.

Lanner has a wide number of manufacturing customers successfully using predictive simulation. See what they have to say:
Ross Meikle and Oliver Buhlinger from Hayward Tyler talk about their requirements for predictive simulation.
Neil Brinkman and David Rice from Britvic Soft Drinks provide an overview of how they used Lanner's WITNESS technology to help design and plan a new high speed manufacturing line.
Joe Barker at TST (a joint venture between Chromealloy and Rolls-Royce) explains how predictive simulations avoid gambling when investing in new manufacturing technology.
“Lanner provided us with extensive technical and business experience and ensured we got an appropriate solution as quickly as possible for our business planning.”
"Through the use of WITNESS, we have realised that we can work smarter and operate the two decal lines with fewer staff and tighter processes. This has led to savings of €600,000 a year.”
“The project was delivered on time and within budget, and the Lanner consultants assigned to the project were deeply knowledgeable, fast to respond, and courteous to deal with.”
“In 20 years of using software across a number of different roles, nothing has impressed me as much.”
“Predictive Simulation has an exceptionally high ROI and proves that you don’t have to engage the likes of McKinsey and spend $4 million a year to improve business performance.”
“After implementing the conclusions of the model we were able to reduce operational costs by almost £100,000 per annum.”
“We were in a very dynamic environment where we needed to answer growth questions very quickly – Lanner and WITNESS software provided the platform to answer these questions”
“We used Lanner because of their reputation for delivery and practical experience. Their flexible, results-focussed style has made a real impact on our people and performance and supported substantial savings on this site.”
“Our relationship with Lanner is very important to us – the company is very visionary and not only shows what simulation can provide now, but how it is going to evolve with the whole industrial piece.”
“Lanner gave us the ability, through simulation, to make fact based decisions in order to double our business.”
