FlexSim- 3D Simulation
Modeling and
Analysis Software

Understand and Improve any System or Process

3D Simulation 

FlexSim comes with all the proven benefits of discrete-event simulation—but with the added bonus of highly realistic, immersive 3D graphics.
FlexSim’s 3D models help you emulate the look and feel of the real system, so it’s easier to see and understand what’s going on.

Visual
Validation

The first level of model validation, where you visually confirm that the system is working or not working as it was intended to.

  1. FlexSim’s 3D Model a real system in our native 3D virtual environment.
  2. Account for real-world variability with FlexSim’s vast array of statistical distributions and random numbers.
  3. Run simulation using the model to test “what if” scenarios—without needing to change things in the real world.

Model Layout

FlexSim makes it as easy as possible to replicate the look of your system while preserving the details necessary for accurate analysis.
Just use the simple drag-and-drop controls to place objects and resources directly into the 3D environment no post-processing needed!

Model Building

FlexSim toes the line between ease-of-use and capability to model even the most complex systems.

Standard Object
Library

The Standard Object Library contains a variety of objects that be used to immediately build models. Customization is simple—just choose from the preconfigured behaviors, mix-and-match options, and even create your own behaviors.

Drop-Down Lists &
Properties 

A wide range of drop-down lists and properties will allow you to quickly customize individual objects, triggers, and system properties. Simply check a box or choose a “picklist” option, and your resource will gain the logic and behavior to emulate any real-world situation.

Process
Flow

Process Flow is one of our latest tools and a real game-changer. Use pre-built activity blocks to build basic or complex logic in a familiar flowcharting environment. It keeps the logic in one convenient place and scales well with any model as it changes and evolves.

Model Analysis

Once you’re ready to simulation using your model, our full suite of analysis features will help you get a deeper understanding of what’s going on.

  1. A deep roster of charts and graphs to help you visualize data from a simulation run.
  2. The ability to track a wide range of data points and then export to your favorite spreadsheet application.
  3. Greater flexibility for data gathering through powerful tools like the Stats Collector object and Zone activity.

Statistical Validation

The second level of model validation, where you evaluate data from one or many simulation runs to verify that the system is operating as expected.

Optimization Using OptQuest

Where the money is made (or saved)! Test “what if” scenarios to find the best possible choices to make in the real world.

FlexSim + OptQuest

If you want to add optimization to your toolkit, FlexSim is fully integrated with the OptQuest engine. This powerful scenario optimization package lets you set variables and constraints on your model to evaluate hundreds of possible solutions. You can even design experiments with multiple objectives to consider competing forces in the system. Find the best possible solution for your process with FlexSim and OptQuest.

Test Multiple Scenarios

Use our powerful Experimenter tool to test multiple scenarios and compare the results. Replications are spread over your CPU cores, so hundreds of simulated replications across many different scenarios can be completed in minutes—not hours or days. The Experimenter also includes report generation and control over variables and performance measures.
