Virtual Plants involve a comprehensive set of software tools to:

• Define, simulate and optimize manufacturing, logistics and maintenance operations through virtual models.

• Capture and exchange information about those operations, both simulated and real-life, thereby closing the feedback-loop between planning and execution.

Virtual Plant


Principles of Virtual Plants

Existing or new plant Virtual plant model

Specifications, simulations,

analyses, reports,

communications


Highlights:

• Industrial PC

• Designed for rough environments. High-quality industrial design

• Vibration and shock resistant. Wide temperature range

• Electromagnetic compatibility. Still small in space (1 Liter)

Assembly example: Nanobox

Design tools

Design NastranAutomotive MCDLineDesigner

• Identify bottlenecks

• Optimize throughput

• Buffer dimensioning

• Optimize lot-sizes/

production mix

• Optimize number of

part-carriers

• Optimize robot position

based on reachability

• Robot OLP

• Exact cycle times

• Human Ergonomics

Motion Capture

Allow Engineers and subjects to explore virtual designs by becoming immersed

• Use subject motions to move the virtual figure

• Record motions of complex tasks

• Experience designs first hand

• Gather objective and subjective responses

Entry-level motion capture

MS Kinect

• No special requirements

• Use with Kinect for Windows SDK

• Voice and gesture command

Capabilities:

• Explore the scene

• Capture critical postures

Use direct feedback

Re-use postures in simulations

High-end motion capture

• Broad range of tracking hardware supported

• Optical, electro-magnetic, inertial, data-gloves

• Track whole body, hand and head motions

• Track multiple actors and objects simultaneously

• Immersion technologies (VR)


Highlights:

• Live measurement of ergonomics

• Real-time workplace improvement

Human simulation

Using PLM software to realize multi-disciplinary co-operation


Engaged Users

Right information.

Right time. Right context.

Intelligent Models

Knowing what they are

and how they’re made.

Adaptive System

Easy deployment today.

Flexibility for tomorrow.

Realized Products

Virtual product.

Real production.

Smart Manufacturing…

and the REAL value is?

Know:

▪ That your design can be made

▪ That the plan is up-to-date and synchronized

▪ That the production system is up-to-date

▪ That the strategy and details will work

▪ How to improve effectiveness and maximize

performance

▪ That production is performing as you planned it

Speed Flexibility Quality Efficiency
