Industry Overview
Digital Twin & Simulation: Engineered End-to-End
A digital twin is only useful if it stays in sync with reality. We build twins that ingest live PLC, sensor, and MES data, update a physics-aware 3D model in real time, and expose a simulation sandbox where engineers test changes risk-free before they reach the floor.
Industry Challenges
What Stops Most Teams From Solving This Today
Common friction points we hear from manufacturing teams scoping this kind of platform.
Expensive Trial-and-Error: Layout changes, new product introductions, and line balancing are tested on live production — costing downtime and scrap.
Static CAD Models: Engineering drawings don't reflect the actual state of equipment, tooling, and material flow on the floor today.
Disconnected Simulation: Standalone simulation tools require manual data entry and never stay current with the real plant.
Capacity Guesswork: Capacity planning relies on spreadsheet models that miss the interactions between stations, buffers, and changeovers.
Our Approach
Our Engineering Approach
We engineer for the operational reality — not the demo.
Live-Synced 3D Twin
A real-time 3D model that reflects current machine states, WIP positions, and sensor readings — not a static CAD render.
What-If Sandbox
Clone the twin, change parameters, run accelerated simulation, and compare KPIs before committing to the physical change.
Physics-Aware Modeling
Discrete-event and agent-based simulation engines that capture station cycle times, buffer dynamics, and failure distributions.
Capabilities
Capabilities
Production-grade features the platform ships with from day one.
Real-Time 3D Visualization
WebGL-rendered factory twin synced to live PLC and sensor data.
Discrete-Event Simulation
Model station cycle times, buffers, conveyors, and operator movements with stochastic distributions.
What-If Scenarios
Clone, modify, and run accelerated simulations to compare layout, staffing, and scheduling changes.
Bottleneck Analysis
Automatic identification of throughput constraints with sensitivity analysis.
Line Balancing
Optimization of task allocation across stations for mixed-model production.
Energy Simulation
Model energy consumption per scenario to find efficiency gains before investing.
Commissioning Validation
Validate PLC logic and control sequences against the virtual line before physical install.
Capacity Planning
Long-horizon capacity forecasts that account for product mix, changeovers, and maintenance windows.

Automotive Assembly Line Virtual Commissioning
An automotive OEM needed to validate a new mixed-model assembly line before breaking ground on a $120M facility expansion. We built a sensor-synced digital twin of the existing line and modeled the proposed additions.
Engineers ran 200+ what-if scenarios in three weeks, identified a buffer sizing issue that would have caused a 15% throughput gap, and adjusted the design before concrete was poured — saving an estimated $8M in post-commissioning rework.
