Consultancy

SimX has used its expertise in simulation to help clients simulate to a high degree of accuracy and realism, factory layouts, production process lines, work cells, a variety of robot types and related systems. As a result risks may be identified and eliminated, layouts optimised, costs saved and right-first-time outcomes achieved, all before any financial investment or commitment to physical implementation is made. Simulations produced by SimX allow the evaluation of numerous scenarios, thanks to the high level of parameterization of used models. Powerful 3D visualisation and animation together with well-structured data outputs greatly helps in communicating results also to non-technical, financial decisions makers. Latest SimX product developments in the field of lean process simulation (click here for more details) have extended the range of provided services from the traditional field of Manufacturing Simulation to other areas like Healthcare Simulation, at the base of the new NHS "lean thinking" paradigm. < SimX consultancy service >

 

Software

SimX is committed to helping SME companies by providing affordable and leading edge software for component modelling and process simulation. As a small enterprise ourselves we understand the importance of low-priced, professional tools, yet able to provide accurate results with little programming effort. The software we sell is the software we also use to provide cost-effective consultancy. SimX is the UK Value Added Reseller for Visual Components Oy, Finland, and we are proud to support the growing base of VC software users in UK, Ireland and Europe. We are also Full Service Reseller for the suite of next generation CAD software from SpaceClaim Corporation, USA, and UK Master Reseller for the Xplano Computer Aided Process Planning toolset from Xplano as, Norway. < SimX software >

 

ResearchPhysical flag simulation

SimX carries out a range of developments in robotic simulation, factory simulation, factory design, process planning and resource management, that is the foundations of PLM (Product Lifecycle Management) software. We view Research and Development as vital to company's business growth. This is reflected in SimX's stated mission to dedicate 30% of company's effort to R&D. Most part of our R&D projects are partially funded within UK TSB (Technology Strategy Board) and EU Frameworks, but we are also involved in commercially fully-funded R&D. < SimX R&D >
