Are you facing these challenges?

Is the PLC software ready before machine installation?

Are there hidden logic errors that may delay startup?

How can on-site commissioning time be reduced?

How can automation changes be validated without risking equipment damage?

How can delivery schedules be met with greater confidence?

Why Virtual Commissioning

Test real code against a virtual machine.

By connecting real PLC, HMI and automation code to a virtual model of the machine or production line, potential issues are identified and resolved earlier in the project lifecycle — significantly reducing commissioning effort, project delays and engineering rework.

Thanks to real-time workpiece volume removal, you can also evaluate the result of the operations performed by the machine, adding a further tool to validate machining strategies and control logic.

As automation grows more complex and AI accelerates PLC software development, Virtual Commissioning ensures that faster development never comes at the expense of quality, safety or reliability.

Test real code against a virtual machine.

Beyond Virtual Commissioning

From validation to a living Digital Twin.

Virtual Commissioning models can become the foundation of a Digital Twin ecosystem, enabling a seamless transition from design and validation to operation, monitoring and continuous optimisation. The same virtual models can be extended with operational data for performance monitoring, operator training, what-if analysis and continuous improvement throughout the machine lifecycle.

30+ years in manufacturing engineering, automation and industrial software
