Virtual Production for Carrier-based Transport Systems

Abstract

Virtual Production methods, especially Virtual Commissioning, are powerful means to build high-quality production lines in less time. A common means to achieve this, is the application of 3-D modeling and simulation systems. Here, the integration of carrier-based transport systems is of special interest. This is because of their high complexity due to the huge number of applied sensors and actors. With the help of Virtual Commissioning, engineers can develop and verify the according control programs long before the actual production line is built.
