Introducing the affordable way to
create your own 3D factory and
robotic simulations
Moving from production requirements
to plant implementation is a difficult,
time-consuming process using standard
simulation tools. Not anymore, thanks
to a group of industry veterans at
Visual Components, the Finland-based
software company. Having grown tired
of cumbersome and costly methods for
creating plant simulations, they set out to
change things.
Simulation software for every skill
set - at a fraction of the cost
With most 3D simulation software, the
total cost of ownership is up to 10 times
higher than with Visual Components'
solution. First, conventional software
is complex and requires a substantial
capital investment. Secondly, training
and maintenance is time-consuming
and costly. And finally, in the end, only
a handful of experts are able to operate
or use it. Now, for a fraction of the cost,
Visual Components's software allows
many more people within your company
to configure layouts and view web-based
3D simulation files.
Since so many more people can take
advantage of Visual Components's
solution, it's much more affordable. Now,
even small to medium-sized companies
can enter the world of
simulation while the large companies can
shave millions off their annual simulation
budget and get significantly bigger returns
on investment.
PLC driven simulation engine to
prove-out shop-floor logic
No matter how fast an individual machine
may be, what counts is how fast you get
products out the door. "That's why our
software is also built to show the flow of
materials in your factory, as well as to
calculate actual production output," says
Craig Lybeck, Visual Components CEO.
3DCreate provides interfaces to
plug into real controllers to drive the
simulation with real machine data and
prove-out shop floor logics. Application
developers can create helpful 3D
diagnostic displays to embed in the
control panels of your shop floor
machines!
Intelligent optimisation for better results.
The connection to Dresden based
Dualis-IT Solutions intelligent ISSOP
optimization software now delivers a
world-class digital factory toolset at a
fraction of the price! The comprehensive
tool kit included is ideal for building high
fidelity layouts suitable for:
• plant planning
• off-line programming
• control validation
• Production optimization
Visual Components product family.
The software consists of an application
developer's tool kit and three easy-to-use
applications targeted at varying skill levels
• 3DCreate - Author and publish visual
components for wide spread use.
• 3DRealize - Easy layout configuration
for analysis, and presentation.
• 3DVideo - Simple interactive viewer
for simulation layouts.
