We’ve added the ability to process batch quantities at a particular resource to the Lean Design Simulator. Watch this video to get started.

Here are a couple of tricks to help you make sure that your model is running exactly how it should. Download the sample data file to try it for yourself!

Here’s how to complete the SEQUENCE worksheet. Richard breaks it down in this 2-minute video.

Let’s go through how to complete the Processtimes worksheet. This can be quite a long table, but the idea is to identify the product and define the workstation. Then we’ll add in the machine and labor times.

Learn how to complete the Products tab in the Lean Design Simulator. This is an easy one to master. There are only three columns (and one is optional).

In this video, we’ll go through the columns of the Resources tab in the Lean Design Simulator. Learn what type of data goes into each column, as well as tips for filling out the spreadsheet.

Learn how to correctly fill out the FLOWDESC tab in your data file for the Lean Design Simulator in this short video.

Take a tour of the Flow worksheet, going column-by-column. The flow worksheet is a little more complex than the others, but Richard will walk you through the steps in this 7-minute video.

This 4-minute video teaches you how to test the sequencing rules on your simulation model.
