Simulation technologies in mechanical and plant engineering
Sound decisions without risk in the virtual space
How does simulation help in mechanical engineering?
Benefiting from simulations in all stages of the automation process
Simulation is a broad term. In mechanical and plant engineering, it is used primarily in the context of computer technology and programs that are used to test engineering projects or workflows in a virtual environment before they are implemented in the real world. The goals include the optimal allocation of resources and the prevention of errors. Depending on the specific task, different tools and methods are available.
Simulate automation environments and behaviors, test virtual machine images, try out design layouts. Shorten work stages or avoid expensive failures in the real world through virtual simulations. These are just some of the possibilities where simulations can be used in the different stages of the automation process. The real-world examples below demonstrate how to utilize the advantages of simulations and minimize risk.
Advantages through simulation in the automation process
Examples of the advantages in the different process stages
Architecture & design stage simulation
Smart design instead of re-design simulation can be used to create the best approach for a detailed design layout of the mechanical system.
Advantages in the engineering stage
Simulation can be a valuable tool for the efficient implementation and realization of projects.
Simulated implementations
The simulation of test cases in advance guarantees quick implementation and commissioning on site.
Use in ongoing operation
Using simulation for advance virtual testing keeps the time needed for testing on an actual production machine as short as possible.
After sales & support stages
Simulation makes it possible to analyze and reproduce errors that occurred, supporting quicker solutions as well as prevention.
