Use of Simulation and Can-q to Analyze the Cleaning and Lubricating Processes of Cold Drawn Tubing
Abstract
A simulation in SLAM and an analytical computer program called CAN-Q were used to study the feasibility-of adding cranes to the cleaning and lubing tanks at Southwest Tube Manufacturing. A comparison is made of the trade-offs and difficulties in using SLAM and CAN-Q in the study. This is accomplished by comparing outputs of both programs, determining confidence intervals and comparing this data with the actual system. A cost analysis is also done on the feasibility of adding the cranes to the tanks.
