SEMA has been using a digital twin and virtual commissioning for several years.
The purpose is to ensure that the machines are manufactured and delivered on time and in high quality according to customer requirements.
What are the main advantages of a digital twin and virtual commissioning:
- Feasibility studies can be carried out in the project planning phase
- Development and commissioning times are shortened
- New development deviations can be detected and eliminated very early by simulated models
- Due to the early recognition of optimization potentials, it is possible to react quickly and easily in the design phase
- Quality of machines and automation solutions is increased even further
- Cycle time and process optimization can already be carried out on the virtual model
- Virtual commissioning facilitates the integration of the machine into the real production environment
- Extensive time savings and thus large cost reductions in the development process and during commissioning
- Virtual commissioning has shortened delivery times by up to 2 months
