Universities teaching with the virtual learning factory
A unique interplay
Model & simulate realistic manufacturing processes
Model your own production processes and scenarios independently. Through visualisations of your virtual factory, you can immediately see status changes in production and what effects they have on the entire manufacturing process.
- Digital twin of production
- Realistic production processes
- Configurable through visualisation editor
Apps for Industry 4.0 – from smartphones to VR goggles
Develop applications for the industrial internet of things. You can develop entirely new business models with full access to production data. You define the boundaries from the smart factory app for the smartphone to applications for VR data glasses.
- Develop your apps
- Free access to production data
- ADK for easier programming
Generate order & production data at the push of a button
The virtual factory offers the possibility to easily generate a wide variety of production data that is generated in reality. From master and movement data to machine and process data. In this way, individual production processes can be simulated.
- Independent generation of data
- Mapping of realistic scenarios
- Open access via FORCE Bridge API
Easy data retrieval via standardised web services
Our FORCE Bridge API gives you access to over 300 standardised production data for creating digital applications. Easy and user-friendly access via open web interfaces REST.
