WITNESS 2007 Screenshot gallery New curve options for all path displays including conveyors, tracks, buffers, sections and path elements. Click here for a short video of this model New Path layout toolbar including adding and removing of different sections, including options to type in angles and radii of curves The innovative path section library - ideal for storing standard conveyor components. New Path Grid view - offering options to set heights for conveyor sections which will automatically be recognised in WITNESS VR. New, easy click and drag setting to rotate fixed position icons for elements such as activities or machines. Here we see an example of different orientations of machine. New prominence for the setting of model warmup times - available in WITNESS 2007 in a handy new run toolbar position Great New Costing tabs on element dialogs. Not only can you choose from many different places to assign costs but the costs can be expressions. This enables different costs to be assigned based on attributes, timings, or complex functions. Overheads can be added and revenues too can be tracked to create a full balance sheet analysis. Example of the New Balance Sheet Revenue section with a choice of granularity of report Example of part of the costing section of the balance sheet report. This useful report also includes a summary profit section in its three tiered structure. All backed by access to figures through a range of new functions. A new layers grid offering easier options for different layer settings through the grid layout. The grid will also offer offset options in 3 dimensions for WITNESS VR models. A new detailed picking model for warehousing - showing in detail how WITNESS can evaluate picking strategies, replenishment control and the allocation of space in storage facilities A new model to show an approach to value stream mapping in WITNESS with simulation adding an edge to this tried and trusted technique A great new look to some of our classic demonstration models such as Bells.Mod - finally received a facelift for 2007

PLUS

• Powerful New Debugging facility offering breakpoint toggling and line by line step through with expression monitoring
• Further options for easy model initialisation including part machined status.
• Breakdown and Setup Flex options including factors for inter stoppage times and the option to turn breakdowns off completely if desired.
• New Workbooks for WITNESS 2007 - installed with the software. Introduced in 2006 these have proven popular and have now been extended with additional model structure analyses. These workbooks offer step by step explanations of many types of WITNESS modeling.
• And much more

WITNESS Optimizer - All New Plug and Play - use your own algorithm inside the optimizer to optimize or simply run your chosen experimental design.

WITNESS VR and VR PLUS.

A new product structure offering a choice of integrated or post-processed VR with an option for free world distribution where others can share your spectacular 3D creations

New WITNESS VR for WITNESS 2007 offers new possibilities with the introduction of much to make 3D modeling easier and more productive:

• A new library for WITNESS VR enabling great looking VR models first time through default fastbuild
• Over 50 New Objects - small selection shown here
• New Environments to give models a great context.
• New conveyor height options and the range of curve extrusions to match the new 2D curved path sections
• Fastbuild layer offsets
• Fastbuild inter object scaling
• Rotated objects match 2D rotation
• Movement of entities/parts with activity/machine movement at any level of hierarchy
• Preset actions at any level of hierarchy for any states
• Extra buttons on VR window surround for easier control

Streamlined security - mantra now links to WITNESS VR dongle - including network option.
