Integrated design and simulation enable the industrial machine’s digital twin
If you want smart manufacturing, it is essential to have smart tools. Companies can no longer rely on conventional, outdated methods of product engineering. The development of industrial machinery is becoming highly intelligent and complex, needing a new approach – a digital twin. An integrated design and simulation enable the creation of the industrial machine’s digital twin, assisting in comprehending and predicting the physical machine’s performance under various conditions without needing a physical prototype.

This recent eBook teaches about boosting productivity and driving innovation through simulation with Intelligent Performance Engineering (IPE).
A machine’s digital twin provides shorter commissioning times, predicts maintenance needs and reduces machine downtime in the field.
A comprehensive digital twin captures simulation and validates the results in a central repository. Designers can now incorporate changes based on these results, closing the loop between testing and design. Subsequently, a digital twin can increase design flexibility, boost productivity, improve innovation processes and promote next-generation smart industrial machines.
When you run the simulation parallel to the design, it reduces the product lifecycle and allows fully validated products to be out the door faster. Furthermore, it maintains reliability and safety while integrating tests and simulation in the same environment, thus automating information sharing and enhancing interdisciplinary collaboration to provide time and resource-saving efficiencies.
There is an ever-increasing need to develop industrial machines faster, with better flexibility to meet changing customer demands. Integrating simulation data and designs saves time and money in the product life cycle and stays ahead of the competition.
