Ingemat<\/strong> is a Spanish engineering company offering robotic automation services for different industrial sectors, specializing in turnkey tailor-made projects for the automotive industry. Their services cover installation design, erection, assembly, and commissioning to achieve the customer’s required cycle time and quality. The primary technologies used in their projects include welding, hemming, bonding, clinching, and riveting. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Why Ingemat adopted virtual commissioning technology<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Designing, deploying, and constructing a production line has always been based on a sequential process\u2014 The fixture installation is followed by robot installation and ensuring smooth operation with the equipment. Then, equipment and robots are integrated with programmable logic controller (PLC) automation until a qualified prototype can be produced. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

But this waterfall process is time-consuming and costly, involving massive robot and control code debugging and dealing with physical installation and cable wiring issues. It also requires using several expensive prototype assets that are not always available on time. This makes engineers perform under restrictive time constraints and high-stress levels, especially in the automotive space, where high-quality standards are imposed. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The high standards of the automotive industry require Ingemat to work efficiently with as few errors as possible to meet timing and cost milestones. Because of this, they adopted Process Simulate<\/strong> in the Tecnomatix\u00ae<\/strong> portfolio for robotics and virtual commissioning. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

“I would say, based on experience acquired in recent years, the choice of Process Simulate as a tool to make virtual commissioning has been the right choice.<\/em>“<\/p>Oscar V\u00e1zquez, Electrical Engineering Deputy Manager at Ingemat<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n
