Digital product selection
The reduction of production times already starts with the digital product selection. Therefore, it is important that all products are described digitally in full.
Digital product selection
Planning and simulation of the machine
With the help of the machine’s digital twin, all processes can be tested even before construction. This identifies possible sources of error and danger at an early stage and allows them to be eliminated before the machine is built. This shortens production times and speeds up machine startup.
Planning and simulation of the machine
Construction of the machine
During the assembly of the real machines, worker assistance systems, digital installation instructions as well as innovative connection technologies and professional tools help to shorten machine production times.
