The digital twin is a dynamic virtual replica of a physical system, which can be a product, process, or environment. By leveraging technologies such as artificial intelligence, the Internet of Things (IoT), and data analytics, the digital twin faithfully reproduces the behavior of its real counterpart under various operating conditions. This technology enables monitoring, analysis, and optimization of the physical system’s performance, predicting failures, improving efficiency, and supporting informed decision-making throughout the entire lifecycle of the product or process.
The valve manufacturing process is a semi-automated system optimized using a digital twin.
Virtual Design is an advanced approach to product design and development that uses digital tools to create 3D models and real-time simulations. Through Computer-Aided Design (CAD) and Product Lifecycle Management (PLM) software, it enables optimized management of data and processes throughout the entire product lifecycle. Augmented Reality (AR) and Virtual Reality (VR) enhance the interaction between designers and digital prototypes, reducing errors and costs. This approach allows for project validation before production, improving the ergonomics, efficiency, and adaptability of the product.
La Cave is a virtual reality system that tests products and processes, reducing development times and optimizing design.
The 3D scanner digitally reconstructs the surfaces of objects, enabling reverse engineering.
XR headsets and integrated sensors provide access to extended reality and collect ergonomic data to optimize design and usability.
Virtual Commissioning is a process that uses digital models and advanced simulations to test the behavior of machines, plants, or production lines before their physical implementation. This technology reduces startup times and minimizes the risk of errors, improving operational efficiency. When integrated with Digital Twins, Virtual Commissioning allows for the verification of performance, safety, and optimization of production layouts in virtual environments. It is particularly useful for testing robotic cells and automated systems, reducing costs and machine downtime.
