The layout optimisation and factory simulation framework has been developed as a part of the Tucana project in collaboration with Jaguar Land Rover.
CFMS has utilised digital engineering techniques to develop a framework to optimise layouts and workflows between a series of rooms or machines. Our layout optimisation and factory simulation (LOAFS) framework is based on requirements-driven design, meaning the goals and constraints of the layout determine the optimal configuration. The framework has no preconceptions of what a floor plan looks like, so is unbiased by traditional norms when determining the optimal.
