Sugars™ for Windows® – A revolutionary update

The new Windows® version of Sugars™ has a full graphical interface for building models of sugar factories and refineries. It is fast, flexible and very user-friendly.

Models are built using drag-and-drop techniques to draw the flow diagram. Stencils containing shapes of stations are provided with the program and these shapes are used to draw the flow diagram of the process. Connections are made between shapes using a connector tool with automatic line routing and crossovers. Data for each station and flow stream in the model is entered on dialog screens that are displayed by double clicking on the station shape, or flow stream. Changing a model, after it is built, is done by simply revising the flow diagram and/or modifying the performance data for any station. All of the data for a model is stored in a Microsoft® Access database that can be addressed by other programs. Heat, material and color balances are quickly obtained from simulations of the model to predict the performance results for the process. A revenue screen shows the net process revenues generated by the process to assist with financial decisions.
