Solution to Navigate the Challenges

Line Simulation & Optimization, powered by the virtual twin experience, enables biopharma manufacturers to model entire production lines, test various scenarios, and predict outcomes to ensure efficiency, quality, safety and achievement of sustainability goals. This solution allows manufacturers to overcome many of the challenges faced today by modeling and optimizing the dynamic behavior of production scenarios, incorporating workers, material flows, fixed and mobile equipment, machines, and tools in a virtual environment before they even exist.

By visualizing virtual KPIs that reflect the true behavior of the line across different scenarios, engineers can forecast production, reduce waste and anticipate the resources required while ensuring worker safety and reducing risk. Through the virtual twin of the entire environment, it's possible to assess the impact of every step in the program, ultimately improving productivity and product reliability.
