CASE STUDY
ECM Technologies has significantly streamlined the design, installation, and commissioning of its large-scale heat treatment systems for the automotive industry by using digital twin technology and Rockwell Automation’s Emulate3D software. Faced with tight timelines and software compatibility challenges during a major project in Mexico, ECM used virtual models to simulate and test their systems in parallel with production. This approach reduced commissioning time by 50%.

The text discusses the importance of digital simulation models in modern factory design and reconfiguration, particularly in response to shorter product lifecycles and increased customization demands. Traditional design methods often lead to inefficiencies and high costs, making digital simulation essential for creating flexible and adaptable production systems. The article highlights a case study involving a furniture assembly factory, where a manufacturer needed to efficiently handle a variety of custom kitchen cabinet orders. The system integrator was tasked with designing a robotic assembly line that could maintain production efficiency despite the high variety of products.
