Virtual Line Development: Built, Tested, and Perfected before the first bolt is turned

Watch our videos and discover how to design & simulate processes virtually to ensure real-life operations run seamlessly.

Eliminate Guesswork. Validate your entire production line—virtually—before spending a Euro on physical changes. Transform and improve real-world manufacturing with the 3DEXPERIENCE platform by modeling, experimenting, and simulating to optimize and make informed decisions within a virtual space. 

Explore all possibilities, identify optimal and robust solutions, then apply to real-world situations, in order to adapt existing factories or create new ones, and validate them early on thanks to their Virtual Twins.

After you've filled out the form, you will have exclusive access to 3-videos series exploring how Industrial AI, Virtual Twins, and next-generation engineering are transforming the future of industry. 

More specifically, you will discover:

1. How to create a 3D virtual twin of entire factories, from the layout of machines to work cells and production lines.
2. How to simulate and compare realistic scenarios for everything from manufacturing processes to factory operations, and even ergonomics for human operators.
3. How to create and manage complex plant production resources.

Plant Layout

Create a 3D virtual twin of entire factories, from the layout of machines to work cells and production lines

  1. Re-use existing or new layout 2D drawings to start the 3D layout definition.
  2. Place & accommodate manufacturing resources from company catalogs to speed-up the line definition.
  3. Add kinematics for the mechanical simulation of machines, robots, conveyors, cobots, etc...
