Expand what’s possible in the design and performance of your machines using Emulate3D™ digital twin software. See how your machine runs before parts are ordered. Discover controls issues before you go on site. And transport plant personnel to a virtual world where they can train on systems without consequence, predict future performance and simulate line changes.


The Machine Lifecycle Reimagined

Solve Challenges Faster and Easier With a Digital Twin

There are lots of “if only” moments in the life of a machine. If only you knew a conveyor or filler was slightly off before you built the machine. If only you knew about the controls-integration issues before you brought it on site. If only you could have executed a changeover more smoothly.

Emulate3D software helps you solve lifecycle challenges like these in the digital world, before they turn into “if only” moments in the real world. This software helps:

  • Build Better Systems: Rethink what’s possible in the design process. With virtual design and prototyping, you create your machine and put it through its paces in the digital world before building it in the real world.
  • Commission With Confidence: Put an end to last-minute surprises and changes. With virtual commissioning, you can connect your machine to a control system earlier, so you can resolve logical operation or sequencing issues before you go on site.
  • Sharpen Operator Skills: Reduce risk and improve competency by training workers in a virtual environment.Train them in realistic conditions by simulating scenarios and introducing faults to your digital system.
  • Improve Production: Solve real-world production challenges in the digital world – where mistakes are much less costly. Use real-time 3D simulation, for example, to see what configuration changes are needed to run a new product at optimal throughput. Or to help a technician more quickly repair an asset.

How Digital Twins Can Unlock a More Agile Design Process

Consumer demands change in the blink of an eye. Learn how digital twins unlock a more flexible and agile design process to respond to those demands.

Watch Now

Respond to Ever-Changing Customer Demands

Unlock a More Agile Design Process with Digital Twins

Changing demands mean new machine designs, tooling, and training. If you were able to test new designs of your machines, could you minimize how much rework is needed? If you could test your controls before building a system, could you spot trouble prior to ordering parts? View the webinar to learn how a digital model of your machine gives you the flexibility to experiment and simulate scenarios to make more informed decisions.


A Better Way to Interact With Machines

Improve the Design and Performance of Automation Systems

In its simplest form, a digital twin is a digital representation of a physical asset or system; but, it’s more than just a visual.  It’s a dynamic model that’s based on the physics of your machine or system and behaves and responds to conditions exactly as it would in a real operational scenario.  From iterating designs before you cut steel, to testing the controls for a machine before it’s bolted to the floor, to creating experienced workers before the touch live controls, the opportunities to apply a digital twin are nearly unlimited. And when you combine a digital twin with new technology like AR headsets, its uses and business benefits only grow.

Keep Your Projects On Schedule

Avoid Surprises During Design, Commissioning and Startup

Nobody likes surprises when they’re deploying a new machine or making line changes - especially when those surprises are problems in areas like controls integration and line sequencing that can cause delays. A digital twin can help you get ahead of these challenges. With it, you can create a virtual machine that uses real operational logic and connects to a control system. Then you can test, debug and verify the machine’s performance before you commission it. And you can emulate the machine to test new configurations and product types.

Leveraging Digital Twins for Operator Training

What if you could train operators in specific scenarios without risk to your machinery or their safety?

Watch Now

Develop Effective Operators

Enhance Learning and Cut Costs with Virtual Training

Keep your workforce on track to meet production goals, even as your most seasoned workers retire. With virtual training, new operators can learn and interact with the systems they’ll be using in the safety of a digital environment.

They can learn normal and exceptional scenarios – including situations that you can’t easily recreate physically. And they can be required to demonstrate procedures, awareness and effectiveness before they start working in a live production environment. Virtual training can also reduce costs by eliminating travel and not requiring that physical equipment be available. View the webinar to learn more.


Intralox Brings Better Solutions to Life

Software Helps Company Develop and Demo Optimal Designs for Customers

Prior to using Emulate3D software, Intralox had to physically demonstrate how its conveyance systems would handle a customer’s products. Now, Intralox uses the software to emulate how its systems can handle their packages and improve product flow within a facility. The software helps the company develop optimal equipment designs and configurations for customers. And with quick, inexpensive iterations, the company can minimize time, labor, risk and guesswork in its planning projects.
