Using Flow Simulation as a Decision Tool for Improvements in Sawmill Productivity
We developed a sawmill flow simulation model to identify production bottlenecks and determine where productivity improvements could be made. Sawmills often invest in a new machine center and then find out that the processing bottleneck just moves somewhere else. Our approach was specifically designe...
