Virtually develop your automotive manufacturing line - ERP Spain.com - España y América Latina

The traditional product development process in automotive manufacturing puts the launch at risk of expensive rework and delays. That is because manufacturers must halt operations to debug the controllers on live equipment if a production line needs to be commissioned or changed. With virtual development, automotive manufacturers can develop all aspects of the manufacturing line to evaluate machines, product lines, and plant design early before committing to costly physical builds.

 

In this webinar, discover the many benefits of virtually developing your manufacturing line and how this allows manufacturers to optimize it before going into operation, so it runs right the first time—leading to a flawless launch of your line. Register now!

 

 

The virtual development process allows OEMs and suppliers to rehearse the launch of a new production line digitally before physically building it. With a comprehensive digital twin of production, machines, product lines, and plant designs can be evaluated early, allowing for numerous ‘what if’ scenarios before costly physical builds are committed. This helps manufacturers gain actionable insights that can help them optimize energy and raw materials to achieve sustainability targets with minimum manufacturing development and launch disruption while reducing errors, rework, safety issues, and costs.

 

 

Virtual development is critical to achieving a complete smart manufacturing solution because it will modernize multiple steps in automotive OEMs' and suppliers' manufacturing processes. For example:

 

Process planning— All disciplines create their plans leveraging the single collaboration backbone, creating a virtual version of individual work cells and the complete line.

 

Process validation— Simulate production processes, evaluate different line configurations, and identify improvements based on results.

 

Production planning— Implementation of automation logic and digital twin simulations to virtually commission the production line validating that the machines and cells are connected through data flows, allowing them to work together as they should produce high-quality parts at launch.
