Instantlygather valuable insight into the real-world performance of products and processes to improve operational resiliency, reduce costs and gaining in competitive advantage with cloud based manufacturing solutions.

CenterLine (Windsor) Limited needed to improve its robotics manufacturing processes methodology by implementing standard, collaborative single-source-of-truth technology to provide its customers with on-time, on-budget and efficient solutions.

Collaboration is the process by which the different stakeholders in any organization gather to work out the needs, wants and goals of the overall project by leveraging lean principles.

Modeling is the starting point for digitalization. It is the rendering of physical systems (and often humans, too) to create an accurate representation of machines, processes and workflows. Accuracy here is essential, and it must be maintained throughout the life of the project.

Performance is the ultimate goal of the actual implementation of the new processes and procedures worked out in the virtual factory. With a successful Virtual Twin Experience, production changes are swift, trouble-free and downtime is minimized. Sensor-equipped equipment then feeds real-time data back to the twin to confirm outcomes and establish a new baseline for the next series of experiments and improvements.

Dassault Systemes creates the Virtual Twin Experience for you when you are limited in time, human resources or it is simply not your primary competence. Get access to our latest webinar to know more about it! We Do It For You!

Unlike a digital twin prototype that focuses on one specific object, virtual twin experiences let you visualize, model and simulate the entire environment of sophisticated experience. They facilitate sustainable business innovation across the full product lifecycle.

A virtual twin experience starts with designing a 3D model that represents the shape, dimensions and properties of a physical product or system. Simulations are run on that virtual model to explore how the product will behave when assembled, operated or subjected to a range of events.

Virtual twin technologies provided by Dassault Systmes' 3DEXPERIENCE platform solutions enable businesses, consumers, patients and citizens, to solve the biggest sustainability challenges and drive innovation by:

Virtual twin experiences are used to improve products sustainability in manufacturing industries, transform the life sciences and healthcare sector and optimize the built environment of cities.

Manufacturing industries are accelerating sustainable innovation initiatives, ranging from defining the future of mobility to developing packaging that is less reliant on plastic.

A virtual twin does just that: establishes a digital model of a product that can be tested ad infinitum on a computer and fed back data from a deployed product for a constant cycle of improvement.

For governments, non-profit organizations and private businesses who are tasked with understanding how things behave in buildings and cities, a virtual twin takes knowledge gathering to the next level.

By modeling entire value chains, virtual twins can improve the sustainability of products and services across the lifecycle, cradle to cradle: from designing for reuse to minimizing material use during manufacturing to estimating carbon emissions to modeling reverse logistics for circular economy systems.

Digital twins, AI, and embedded analytics are the keys to leveraging an abundance of data and contextualizing it for purposeful and strategic decision-making to improve current practices and predict the future state of the business.

DELMIA delivers the Virtual Twin for Manufacturing, going beyond the static representation of digital twins. It is a dynamic virtual model of real-world products, facilities, assets, and processes powered by real-world data, allowing manufacturers to collaborate, model, optimize and perform efficiently. Simulating outcomes of multiple scenarios in the virtual model helps manufacturers form the best plans in line with business and sustainability goals.

We used DELMIA to create a virtual twin and simulate the construction process and automated equipment. This allowed us to test and verify everything before construction to ensure that all work orders were clear and the process was foolproof.

The benefits of virtual twins are numerous. From increasing speed-to-market to minimizing the risk associated with complex innovations and projects, these technologies can help companies across industries reduce costs and improve operations.

Our research findings indicate that if industries, governments, and societies were to implement virtual twins, we could unlock additional benefits of USD $1.3 trillion of economic value and 7.5 Gt CO2e CO2e emissions reductions between now and 2030.

Virtual twins can help many different industries innovate operations and ultimately reinvent core business. Within our research, we looked across five key industries and use cases to demonstrate the potential of virtual twins:

If introduced at scale, virtual twins can deliver $1.3 trillion of economic value and 7.5 Gt CO2e emissions reductions between now and 2030 across these five use cases alone. However, it is clear that adoption has been limited to date, and we must work to accelerate the adoption of these technologies across industries. To do this, we encourage executives to follow our five key recommendations: clearly link technology and sustainability agendas; improve the understanding of these technologies; focus on disruptive systems-change use cases; deploy these technologies responsibly; and, rally ecosystem support.

Through our analysis, we have shown the potential for virtual twins to help us achieve our Global Goals, and deliver clear business value, and we hope we can inspire the next wave of leadership to think about these combined benefits, and accelerate our progress.

The manufacturing industry is undergoing an unprecedented shift driven by new technologies, as well as the drive to lower operating costs and minimize disruptions. A virtual twin is key to facilitate successful transformation to flexible, agile and cost-effective manufacturing operations.
