Commission the PLC software virtually
Early testing of all processes in a virtual commissioning environment, including PLC, HMI, robot paths, sensors, and safety logic
Early detection and correction of programming and concept errors before on-site commissioning, using digital twin simulations
Shortened decision-making cycles and significant time savings during commissioning through reproducible, physics-based tests
Minimized risk on the shop floor: prevent damage during implementation and pre-identify system issues and collisions in simulation
Optimization of production and processing workflows via cycle-time analysis, recipe validation, and interface checks (Profinet, OPC UA, TCP/IP)
Significant cost savings by reducing on-site rework, downtime, and change requests prior to FAT/SAT
Better quality and reliability through SIL/HIL tests, error reporting, and clear to-dos for mechanics, electrics, and software
Smooth handover: documented test cases, KPIs, and stable software builds that accelerate start-up and ramp-up
PLC expertise you can trust: we program in LAD, FBD, AWL, SCL, and ST and understand real shop-floor constraints, minimizing handover gaps during commissioning
Realistic, physics-based digital twins: mechanics, drives, sensors, robots, and machine vision behave in simulation like on the real machine
Seamless integration: clean connections to HMI, recipes, MES, and fieldbuses including Profinet, PN/PN coupler, TCP/IP, and OPC UA
Proven toolchain: TIA Portal and TwinCAT linked with SIMIT, Emulate3D, or custom 3D models for robust co-simulation
Measurable results: verified cycle times, error logs, and actionable to-dos for mechanics, electrics, and software before hardware power-up
Faster FAT and SAT: stable software builds and documented test cases reduce on-site changes and shorten time to market
Safety and reliability: SIL and HIL tests, interlock checks, and fail-safe scenarios validated virtually
Robot and camera validation: path verification, collision checks, gripping logic, and inspection flows approved in advance
Change-ready engineering: rapid iterations on layouts, recipes, and interfaces with reproducible scenarios
Clear deliverables: model files, test plans, KPIs, and handover documentation for a smooth transition to on-site commissioning
Reduced risk and cost: fewer surprises, less downtime, and predictable ramp-up for new machines and retrofits
Use cases: pick and place cells, sorting systems, packaging lines, dosing and mixing, conveyor networks, and custom machinery
