PRODUCT USED:
Capacity Planning and Scheduling System

RESULTS:
The system simulations were performed before actual installation in the plant. This allowed the system designs to be optimized, the operating strategies to be defined in advance and saved considerable amount of time, money, and bad surprises during the startup phases. The animated models were used first as a communication tool between Deere and the system contractors. After the installation of the system, the computer simulation and animations were used as an operation and scheduling tool for the plant employees.
