Auto-generation of digital twins for optimisation of planning and scheduling in manufacturing

Flexiton Limited创造了一种全新的制造优化方法并为其申请了专利。我们在来自不同行业的四家非常不同的公司测试了这一概念，发现通过降低劳动力成本、库存水平、转换和提高产量，可以节省20%以上的成本。然而，市场的主要障碍是，对于我们的每个解决方案，我们必须为每个制造商建立一个定制的优化模型。这个为期9个月的项目旨在通过为新的制造工厂自动构建一个通用的“一刀切”的优化模型来改变这一点，以便产生优化的生产计划和时间表。这将适用于英国制造业的每一个行业。

Flexciton Limited has created and patented a completely novel means of manufacturing optimisation. We have tested the concept in four very different companies from different sectors and found that savings of over 20% can be produced through reduced labour costs, inventory levels, changeovers and boosted production. However, the major barrier to market has been that for each of our solutions we have to build a bespoke optimisation model for each manufacturer. This 9-month long project seeks to change this by automatically constructing a generalised 'one-size-fits-all' optimisation model for new manufacturing plants, in order to produce optimised production plans and schedules. This will be applicable to every sector of UK manufacturing.
