Warum Intelligent Scheduling & Planning for Shipyards?

Planning an assembly layout in an open-plan workshop is like solving a complex puzzle: optimizing space and distances, allocating labor and equipment, and managing schedules for diverse part sizes and tasks. Alhona’s solution, built on Siemens Plant Simulation, combines layout planning and flow simulation with optimization to remove bottlenecks, test thousands of scenarios and improve the time required to manufacture a ship and resources used.

Vorteile

Reduce overall ship assembly time in the shipyard.
Maximize workshop space utilization.
Minimize costly movements of heavy parts.
Ensure on-time deliveries and adapt to changing operational conditions.
Automate layout planning to save time and reduce human error.

Besondere Funktionen

Genetic Algorithm Optimization

Searches for optimal layout planning solutions using a multi-objective genetic algorithm. Generates diverse proposals — explored through a colonization and extinction process — so you can select the one that best fits your operations.

Fast Simulation & Results Visualization

Efficient, focused simulation that speeds up the optimization algorithm and enables fast results visualization – enhancing iteration across different planning scenarios.

Layout Results Ready for Execution

Export your layout plan to Excel or track its evolution in interactive HTML, navigating your workshop’s footprint over time and visualizing when and where each part must be positioned.

Intuitive Graphical Interface

Easily configure parameters with a guided user interface and input data verification to prevent setup errors and accelerate the layout planning process.

Assembly Layout Snapshot

Capture the current production layout situation to replan from that point – enabling progress tracking and deviation analysis.

Comparison of manual and optimized planning

Optimized Planning for Stable Production

A shipyard workshop with limited space and varied tasks shows load irregularities when using manual planning. In optimization, the workshop improves product timing and location, stabilizes workflows, improves resource use, and boost on-time delivery by 200%, shifting bottlenecks to early stages.
