Decision Support Tools
BIMCON INC leverages its expertise in the deep automotive industry to innovate new solutions capitalizing on evolving computational and PLM technologies. Some examples of our methodology include:
Discrete Event Simulation
Models and correlates the performance and scalability of the complex infrastructure environment required to deliver CAD/CAM/PLM toolsets to a large, globally dispersed user base of a NA OEM. The validated model is then used to simulate scenarios for maximum utilization of the available physical information to support the product development design process. We have expertise in the use of discrete event solvers such as AnyLogic and SimPy.
Search-Based Design
Leverages a "catalog look up" based solution to significantly improve the efficiency and timeliness of complex engineering problems that have been conceptualized. This method has been applied to the prediction of flexible hose and cable shapes within the automotive engine compartment.
