Explore Virtual Commissioning

During the development of a machine, there are many risks that can jeopardise the ability to introduce the machine into production on schedule.

Virtual commissioning makes it possible to conduct machine commissioning tests early in the design and development phase. What-if scenarios can be tested with no risks involved, the engineering error quota gets reduced, and the security validated – before the real machine even exists.

Watch this 1 Minute overview to learn more.

How does Virtual Commissioning work?

As technology advances and deadlines shorten, machine builders need to implement new methods to get their products to market faster.

By using Virtual commissioning, total time required for commissioning an actual machine can be substantially reduced, removing the need for physical prototypes and significantly reducing the time-to-market for production machines.

Watch this overview video clip showcasing Virtual Commissioning in more detail.

Mechatronics Concept Designer: Our on-demand Webinar

Mechatronics Concept Designer (MCD), the software module behind Virtual Commissioning, brings teams together by facilitating the integration of engineering departments, including requirements management, concept design, mechanical design, electrical design and software/automation engineering.

The advanced engineering tool is open and can be used with all major CAD platforms. With this feature, you can:

  • Get to market faster by reducing Machine development time up to 30%
  • Rapidly evaluate machine concepts in a virtual environment
  • Enhance collaboration among mechanical, electrical and automation designers
  • Build fewer physical prototypes

TrakRap: Virtual Commissioning Video Case Study

A small company with a big vision is behind a revolutionary packaging system that is reducing the consumption of energy and material by food producers in the UK. With its cold wrapping technology, TrakRap has not only taken heat and waste out of the packaging line; it is working with Siemens to provide its customers with all the benefits of manufacturing digitalisation.

TrakRap CEO Martin Leeming commented “Our digital twin has been really useful in developing the first machine that we’re now building. We know this machine works in a way that is going to deliver exactly what we want.” In addition to the manufacturing predictability that TrakRap has gained, time to market has been reduced by 40% and development costs cut by 30% because the physical prototype stage has been eliminated.

More critically, a new precedent has been set. “We now think of our machine not so much as a physical entity but as a flexible software platform that can adapt to different types of environment, product and set up, enabling us to predict quality, throughput and timescales,” says Leeming.
