Virtual Commissioning for machine builders – the end of prototypes
During the development of a machine, there are many risks that can jeopardise the ability to introduce the machine into production on schedule. So why wait until the final assembly to begin verification of the machine?
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.
The total time required for commissioning the actual machine can be substantially reduced, removing the need for physical prototypes and significantly reducing the time-to-market for production machines. Find out more on the Siemens PLM virtual commissioning page.
