All manufacturing steps are automatically derived from the information for the virtual prototype. All the necessary machine programs can be created automatically through direct communication with the Human Machine Interfaces of modern automation solutions. Manual manufacturing is also supported digitally.
Manufacturing
Digital all the way to production
From the digital twin to the real product
The digital twin provides input for manufacturing systems such as Rittal Perforex and various semi-automated machines, fully automated wire processing machines, and printing systems. Data can also be used for additional services, such as Phoenix Contact’s terminal strip service.
Your advantages for greater efficiency:
Intelligent support of manual manufacturing processes
Automation solutions for cost efficiency and high product quality
Flexible services for custom order situations
The seamless interplay between design engineering and configuration ensures simple and error-free construction of the complete enclosure.
