Visual Components launches new version of its factory simulation software

by

Visual Components, a specialist in 3D manufacturing simulation and robot offline programming, has announced the release of Visual Components 5.1, a major advancement in factory simulation designed to enable manufacturers to manage the growing complexity of autonomous production environments.

The new release introduces highly accurate physics simulation and scalable robot orchestration capabilities, enabling manufacturers to simulate hundreds of autonomous mobile robots, automated guided vehicles, robots, products, and people operating simultaneously across full factory environments.

As factories evolve toward increasingly autonomous, connected, and intelligent systems, manufacturers must manage complex interactions between robots, mobile vehicles, products, material flows, control systems, and people across entire production environments.

Siemens introduces Digital Twin Composer for large-scale digital twin environments

by

Siemens has launched Digital Twin Composer, a new software solution that builds industrial metaverse environments at scale, empowering organizations to apply industrial AI, simulation and real-time physical data to make decisions virtually, at speed and at scale.

Digital Twin Composer enables industrial companies to combine 2D and 3D digital twin data from Siemens’ comprehensive digital twin with physical real-time information in a managed, secure real-time photorealistic visual scene, built using Nvidia Omniverse libraries.

With Digital Twin Composer, companies can rapidly build and maintain this global environment, containing all aspects of their product or production data (both virtual and physical) in a secure, managed high-fidelity 3D experience, throughout the lifecycle of the product, process or facility.
