Factova Worldworks_Logistic Simulation
Quickly design factory layouts with optimized area and material flow using AI algorithms
Why Is It Needed?
Layout design is time-consuming when building a new factory or changing production lines. The more processes and equipment, the more combinations grow exponentially, so finding the optimal layout takes a lot of trial and error and time.
Factova Logistic Simulation is LG CNS's factory layout design automation system, quickly and accurately generating optimal layout options even in complex manufacturing environments.

Voice of the Customer
"The AI algorithm gave us creative, diverse layout options that weren't in our references, so we could choose the optimal one."
Why LG CNS
Factory layout design is an NP-hard problem, making it very difficult to find the optimal solution. Factova uses meta-heuristic algorithms to derive optimal or near-optimal layouts.
Parallel processing generates multiple design options at once, dramatically speeding up design that takes 5-7 days by hand.
Designs production equipment (FA), auxiliary rooms, buildings, and site layout in one flow, integrating spatial constraints, process sequence, and logistics flow.
Scoring on area, material flow, and investment cost derives the optimal option (Cost Saving), and results are generated automatically as DXF files that convert instantly into CAD drawings.
