Digital Ecosystem
Our team designed and built a complete plant simulation model for Emerson's future HVAC production line to identify optimal layout of the facility, equipment and containers to be purchased. Next, we designed a plant simulation model of the customer’s Automation & Control plant to be used as template for Emerson’s sensor manufacturing division globally. We are continuing to enhance and expand the Digital Twins delivered to Emerson in order to add functionalities and improve the models based on the evolving needs of the customer, their operations and their business.
