HOLISTIC DECISION SUPPORT

Holistic decision-making support and shorter project duration thanks to the digital twin

When designing production systems in smart factories, we rely on comprehensive options for our customers to back up their decisions, which can significantly shorten project times. The EDAG Group will advise you on the introduction of digital twins in the Industrial Metaverse. This technology allows us to connect the data strands of the CA systems with each other, to enable an increase in efficiency through the digital collaboration of experts across the trades and to significantly accelerate the time-to-market.

We will build your integrated data platform step by step during the production development process, adding data from expert systems as we go. This means that you benefit from a continuous digital thread through the EDAG Group. One important application is the performance of profitability and technical impact analyses based on the bundled data strands of the CA systems. This way, you benefit from optimally networked, sustainable and flexible production systems.

Your smart factory – secured by the industrial metaverse

Digital collaboration solutions for manufacturing companies connect the real and virtual world. A detailed representation allows production systems to be securely monitored from the initial idea through all production cycles to the final result. Whether it's process reliability through digital planning, work simulation in the context of ergonomics or the networking of all plant areas to create a smart factory – we rely on comprehensive decision-making support when designing cost-efficient and innovative production systems.

Phases of virtually supported design of production systems

Consultancy
We take responsibility for your project from the outset and work with you to develop the target vision in a joint smart vision workshop, so that use cases can be derived from it.
Concept development
As part of simultaneous engineering (SE), the development of smart automation technologies for the design of your production system takes place in parallel. Engineering experts from different areas – such as planning, production/maintenance and quality management – work together at an early stage.
Validation of the systems
By merging the data silos of the CA expert systems into the digital twin in the Industrial Metaverse, decision-makers and experts are able to jointly agree on an optimal solution and make it a reality.
Optimization of ongoing production
During ongoing production, we use real-time analyses of operating data from the machines and systems, as well as the other infrastructure, to continuously optimize them. This enables, for example, proactive maintenance for trouble-free production processes.

The iSILOG Toolbox for virtual commissioning of flexible production systems

Use our iSILOG TOOLBOX to support your development platform and visualize all phases from development to commissioning in detail. In this way, companies can check and optimize their complexity management as early as the concept phase, enabling them to quickly identify and correct errors. A digital twin accurately maps the optimal motion sequence and the functions of all components. By continuously adapting the digital model and using operating data, the design of intelligent production systems often becomes even more efficient.

Your advantages in the design of production systems

Increased transparency and optimal resource planning: All stakeholders have access to current information and documents. This increases the traceability of decisions and changes. Investors, customers and employees alike receive clear insights into processes. Digital planning and logistics tools also support the management of resources.
Efficient, flexible collaboration: Digital production planning enables seamless collaboration between planners, engineers and operators, regardless of their location. Real-time updates and document sharing improve team communication and coordination. With digital planning tools, teams can quickly respond to changes and new requirements.
Time savings and cost efficiency: Time-consuming tasks such as data analysis, documentation and communication processes are automated. This significantly reduces planning time. More precise estimates, better resource utilization and error prevention save costs. Budgets are planned more accurately and adhered to better.
Improved accuracy: Automated data processing and advanced analysis tools reduce errors caused by digital processes and increase the accuracy of production planning.
Advanced visualization capabilities (VR technologies): Digital planning and logistics tools and modern visualization technologies provide a visual understanding of complex production plants and factories. This facilitates the exchange of ideas.
Informed decision-making and compliance: With access to comprehensive and up-to-date production data, simulations and modern visualization technologies, informed decisions can be made quickly. Digital production planning ensures that all relevant regulations and standards are met. Risks are identified at an early stage and efficient production remains assured.
