Your systems are good.
But do they communicate with each other?
Industrial value creation is becoming more complex, interconnected and data-driven. Yet in many companies, fragmented system landscapes remain, where data, models and decisions do not come together. What is missing is a shared foundation that connects these systems.

Partner
The Industrial Metaverse describes exactly this digital space. It enables the creation of end-to-end models of products and production processes across the entire factory lifecycle.
metys is the Industrial Metaverse platform that EDAG uses to realize this space. Development data, simulations, AI, and production are connected so that industrial projects can be planned, managed, and optimized holistically.
As an engineering partner with deep expertise in product development and production, EDAG combines technology with real industrial processes. This creates a consistent data foundation that not only ensures transparency but also enables the use of Physical AI and Agentic AI. The first available entry point is the metys module for project management in the Industrial Metaverse.
What holds industrial companies back today
Many industrial companies work with powerful systems that are not sufficiently integrated. Data, models, and processes remain distributed. A consistent end-to-end view does not emerge.
Systems such as CAD, PLM, and ERP, as well as specialized solutions for simulation and production, each provide valuable contributions. PLM systems, in particular, are designed to consolidate product data and break down silos.
The real challenge lies not in the technology itself, but in how these technologies interact.
- Data is not available in the right context
- Decisions are based on incomplete information
- Risks become visible too late
Integration that works in practice
metys addresses exactly the point where traditional system landscapes reach their limits. Instead of integrating data retrospectively, it creates a shared working environment in which development data, production data, simulations, and AI analyses are connected from the outset.
This makes information from different domains available in the right context and directly usable within the project. Relationships between product, process, and planning become transparent, and decisions can be made on a consistent data foundation. Based on this, products and production processes can be virtually planned, simulated, and validated before real investments are made.
This approach is based not only on technology, but also on engineering expertise. EDAG contributes decades of experience in product and production development and integrates technologies from leading partners such as NVIDIA, Siemens, SAP, and Wandelbots into a functioning overall system.
metys is being expanded step by step across the entire factory lifecycle. The current entry point is the project management use case. Additional application areas will be added progressively.
Not isolated standalone solutions, but end-to-end integration across real industrial processes.
What this means in practice
Initial projects show measurable effects:
Project Management as the First Use Case
The metys project management module is available and can be deployed productively within 30 days. It is well suited as an entry point because coordination effort is particularly high in industrial projects. Many stakeholders, many systems, and many data sources need to be brought together.
metys connects:
- Project status and milestones
- 3D models and geometry data
- Simulation data
- Documents and tasks
This includes:
- CAD systems such as CATIA V5, Siemens NX, MicroStation, as well as Autodesk data
- Simulation solutions such as Process Simulate and Plant Simulation
- Project and collaboration systems such as C-Place and COMAN
Depending on the system, integration is achieved either through direct interfaces or by incorporating existing data. The degree of integration ranges from fully connected applications to use as a data source.
This makes project statuses, dependencies, and risks visible in real time. AI supports status queries and identifies patterns in project data.
- Complete transparency across project progress
- Faster and better-informed decisions
- Less coordination effort
- Higher planning quality
