Increasing Smart-Factory Productivity

Simio LLC, a Pittsburgh, PA-based provider of simulation and scheduling software, has announced its collaboration with Chicago, IL-based Digital Manufacturing and Design Innovation Institute (DMDII), a research institute for applying cutting-edge digital technologies. Led by UI Labs, a university and industry collaboration, the DMDII network includes 14 institutes, each focusing on a specific area of technology with their vision being to fully develop and demonstrate each area before commercial deployment. Giving companies of all sizes a front row seat to see these new developments in action, the DMDII allows them to discover answers to their manufacturing problems through technology that is available today rather than in the distant future.

Simio says that manufacturers using its simulation and scheduling software to analyze real-world conditions at every stage of the production process consider it an effective tool that helps facilitate Industry 4.0.
