Virtual commissioning for efficiency in remote collaborative working

Simsol Factory Simulations Manager, Mike Smith, said ‘Virtual commissioning (VC) is a key enabling technology for the ‘next normal’ of manufacturing in 2020 – Plant Simulation can be used to ensure PLC code testing can be completed with maximum efficiency, reducing testing on the shop floor as multiple team members can work simultaneously on machinery code. This can be done remotely from different locations to avoid unnecessary disruption to production and also to limit the time team members work in the same space for social distancing.’
