Excel as a Bridge: Streamlining Simulation Data When Databases Aren’t Ready
April 23, 2025
Excel as a Bridge: When connected databases aren’t available, simulation projects often face delays and inefficiencies. In this session, Natalia Weis and Cristina Palomares from Lear Corporation present a practical solution: using pre-templated Excel tables to streamline data integration in Siemens Tecnomatix Plant Simulation. This method reduces errors, saves time, and empowers users—regardless of expertise—to manage data efficiently. With a focus on flexibility, standardization, and ease of use, this approach has proven effective across automotive projects and beyond. Attendees will gain actionable insights and see real-world examples of how Excel can act as a powerful bridge between disconnected data and effective simulation.
