c) For documenting areas of improvement. Simulation was used to evaluate and validate the impact of lean manufacturing in the future state, which is important because in a deterministic model (like a value stream map) variation in WIP, TH, and CT cannot be observed. SimioTM software was used to model the current value stream map of the two case studies (Plant C and D) mentioned in section 3.2, and they were called base models. SimioTM software is composed by different elements that can represent a workstation, shipment, the arriving of raw material, among others. These elements are called intelligent objects. The base models for Plant C and D were created using intelligent objects. The Plant C base model used the intelligent object called source to represent the arrival of raw material, 13 intelligent objects called servers to represent the air drying, the conventional kiln drying, the shop floor machines (Surface planner, Ripsaw, Moulder, Pre finishing), one intelligent object called combiner which batched the lumber in the kiln drying on batches of 75MBF (capacity of the kilns), one intelligent object called separator to split the batches in single units, and an intelligent object called sink to represent the shipment (Figure 6) Figure 6. Plant C Simulation Model The Plant D model was created by using the object source that represented the lumber arrivals, 45 servers that represented the air drying operation, the conventional kiln operation, and the shop floor machines, one combiner that batches the lumber for the kiln, one separator that split the batches into single units, Plant C the drying operation, and 4 sinks that represent the 55PDF Image | Impact of Vacuum-Drying on Efficiency of Hardwood Products
