Manufacturing and assembly
Identify and eliminate bottlenecks
When designing a new manufacturing plant or assembly line, you want to utilize your equipment the best way possible. A Digital Twin of the manufacturing and assembly system will visualize the entire process, and enable you to identify bottlenecks and throughput before the operation phase.
Assembly simulation is useful for digital prototyping
- Design and analyze new ideas and concepts
- Visualize equipment, functions, and flows for facilitating review by engineers, consultants as well as the end-user
- Create show case animation
Performance and flexibility analysis and verification for decision-making
- Analyze bottlenecks, buffering, throughput, inventory
- Predict performance, utilization, flow time
- Verify controls strategies and algorithms for optimization and flexibility
Experior supports the entire automation system lifecycle. This includes:
- Virtual commissioning of PLC controls, MES interface, ordering, production and OOE reporting
- Software Development Audition (SDA) and milestone testing in the development phase
- Internal virtual factory acceptance test (VFAT) and quality assurance at system suppliers
- Format VFAT and VSAT withengineering professionals, consultants, and system suppliers prior to acceptance, handover, and going live.
- Operator training and optimization
- Safe optimization and retrofitting of running systems by off-line testing changes of equipment and control thoroughly in an emulation setup
