Virtual Commissioning is crucial to saving time and money in the Manufacturing world. Setup and Ramp-Up of the Control Systems implementation for robotics and automation are called “Commissioning.” Traditionally, this step is done after the physical system is built on the shop floor. Production cannot begin until that is completed. Digital twins (simulations) of Plants, Production lines, or individual Cells that interface with Digital twins of PLC or actual PLCs not yet connected to physical equipment allow for the development and testing of control systems before physical implementation.  This is called “Virtual Commissioning.” This webinar covers the comprehensive, powerful suite of virtual commissioning tools offered by Siemens.

Benefits include:

• Reduce program and debug time
• Optimize system performance
• Eliminate operator safety issues
• Enhance operator training
• Minimize issues discovered during launch
