Emulate3D Controls Testing Virtual Commissioning of Automated Systems Although each automated material handling system (AMHS) project presents its own specific set of challenges, common to all projects is the challenge of commissioning. The hardware meets the control software for the first time, products are introduced into the system, and operators are trained on how to run it. Despite the use of many standard components in a modern automated system, each one is really a prototype and requires thorough testing. Emulate3D Controls Testing allows more comprehensive testing using an accurate Dynamic Digital Twin of the real system, earlier in the project cycle, and at a lower cost, than is possible using traditional techniques. Each System is Unique When the need to reduce build time and costs, which drives standardization, encounters the reality of an exact customer requirement, the result is a unique solution with its own control and configuration challenges. Decisions taken at the design stage determine the cost of ownership, throughput, flexibility, and ease of use of the resulting system. Pre-production acceptance testing is the last minute confirmation of the quality of these decisions, when few modifications outside of the control system are possible.
