Digitalization is the key to unlocking the full potential of an idea. Our experts work with customers across industries—from eMobility and nuclear to the life sciences—to digitize product designs and manufacturing processes and create virtual simulations.
Digital twin technology provides a functional, virtual replica of a physical line and tooling that accurately represents the line’s programming, performance, and throughput. This immersive environment enables manufacturers and automation solutions experts to test and optimize designs before delivering tooling or manufacturing lines.
Digital Twin Technology Helps
Accelerate automation solution development and reduce on-site commissioning time.
Mitigate risk, avoid costly delays, and understand how design changes impact delivery and line performance.
Train and prepare people objectively and consistently across sites.
Reduce “prototype part” consumption during commissioning and testing.
Every digitalization project is unique. Allow us to listen to your challenges and share how automation can launch your project on time.
Benefits of Digital Twins
Mitigate Risk
Anticipate challenges and issues before physical implementation.
Change Agility
Quickly understand the impact of operational or product modifications before implementing them.
Accelerate Time to Market
Reduce lead time by addressing errors and offline programming in parallel with design changes.
The Power of Digital Twins
Simulation
We partner with our customers’ engineering teams to simulate different operational use cases to measure and optimize performance. By leveraging a digital twin’s virtual production floor, teams can gain experience with their assembly solution’s final fit and function. Digital twin simulations also let teams see how design changes will affect performance. Our immersive, digitalized environment extends beyond virtual reality with the use of haptics, enabling operators to experience new tools and machinery in a realistic way. By simulating designs in a digital realm, assumptions can be optimized and validated before executing a build.
Virtual Commissioning
Digital twin solutions provide monitoring and data analytics that empower companies to analyze, debug, and troubleshoot issues virtually—before project construction even begins. Utilizing digital twin software also enables error handling and offline programming for robotics, programmable logic controllers (PLCs), and third-party equipment.
We work with our customers to identify and correct potential issues early in the process, helping manufacturers save critical time and money.
System Twins
System twins are advanced virtual representations of entire manufacturing systems. They provide a comprehensive digital model that mimics the physical attributes and behaviors of machines, robots, software, and other components within an automated manufacturing line. This virtual system allows manufacturers to better understand and manage complex processes, facilitate smoother operations, and better coordinate efforts across teams and sites.
