  1. Factors in Furniture Design Solutions – Technosoft Engineering

    Leave a Comment

    Furniture and interiors play quite an integral part in retail business. You don’t randomly build a restaurant and expect people to throng for no reason. People come to you only when they find something more relevant to them. They come to you only when they see value in what you sell. Most importantly, they come to you only when get to connect themselves with the place. Retail outlets nowadays are theme driven and essentially buyer persona driven. In short, you build a retail outlet to draw people who are relevant to your business. To create that connect and relevance factor, retailers need impeccable furniture design solutions and interiors. Making a retail space of that sort, here are some of the critical factors furniture design engineers should understand.

    Furniture Design Solutions

    Analyzing Usage

    You run a food joint that is fundamentally targeting young adults. Moreover, your restaurant is placed in a locality where there are more schools and colleges. What could possibly be the right furniture for your food joint? Candle light dinner and romantic dates are going to be the concept behind it? If you think so, it’s time to realize that you have a wrong proposition. Young adults as the name suggests are young and peppy. They need an environment wherein they can rush in and quickly have some bites and leave. In other cases, it has to be like a group of friends are hanging out and they tend to have something cool. Hence you understand your target audience and setup an environment that they wish to have. Moreover, you analyze how your target audience tends to use the space.

    Durability

    Durability is the most critical factor in any product manufacturing process. Yes, if your product cannot withstand a usage not even for a year, its credibility will be questioned terribly. Let us say, you’ve made new complete set of interiors in your retail outlet and in less than a month time all the furniture begin to crumble. This is because, it is not well treated to withstand for a longer period. On the other hand, customers have zero patience to such conditions. If they sit on a chair and it crumbles, your business for the day crumbles. You end up getting word of mouth depreciation allover and your brand might be at the risk of getting doomed.

    Aesthetics

    There is a thin line between arranging things and decorating. Often furniture and space are made for each other. Both of their presence complements each other. For example, if you have a vintage style floor and wall designs with a modern styled furniture in your retail space. This first of all doesn’t go well on the aesthetics point of view. Secondly, you built the space with a buyer in mind who is either a young adult or an ailing old man. All your furniture and wall designs must be comforting his/her senses just to ensure you draw the relevant crowd.

  2. Guide on Essential Processes to Make a Robust Robot Design

    Leave a Comment

    Robotics has always been the most debated topics of all in the technology domain. Some say robots in our day to day lives will be a disaster. While some say it will simplify our lives far more than we think. Anyhow, we see a lot of Robotics application quite widely both in industrial as well as domestic arenas. Now people are ready to accept more of robotic applications to simplify their lives. Robot Design process is not as simple as machine designing. It involves some serious processes to ensure the machine delivers the best to simplify our lives. Most importantly, it has to ensure the error rate is zero. Here is the process that builds a robust Robot.

    Robot Design

    Define the Problem

    You’re building a Robotic machine, but for what purpose? Are you trying to create Robots to welcome guests at your office reception? Or are these Robots going to help you in arrange goods in your manufacturing facility? Whatsoever it is, first define the purpose for which you are building the product and begin identifying the specific requirements. This process will let you go ahead with ease as you have a clear vision.

    Research & Design

    Now that you defined the purpose of your Robot and also you identified the requirements to do that. Yes, you identified a problem and said why building a robot for the particular issue is essential. Now you must spearhead the research process.

    Under this, your target audience, functionalities of your Robot, Well Suited materials to build the Robot, scale of production and most importantly what operations it will be performing will have to be addressed.

    Post research, you have to start focusing on your Robot Design. Under this, you have to identify the possible solutions as well as the alternates. Even you should consider the specific design details, which will be accepted allover.

    Prototype

    A trial run before launching any big thing outside will actually let you understand the outcome. If it is negative, you can actually make the essential changes. You can even rework completely on the whole model. This step is more necessary for Robot Design because it is meant to replace a human. Anything disastrous will cost the existence of Robots and the valuable amount of hard work by several professionals.

    Build

    You successfully made a prototype and analyzed the outcome. If successful, you’re now responsible to build a robust Robot and launch it in the market. You need to follow some examples like The Art of LEGO Design which is widely used in the industry for inspiration. But several professionals do it in the prototype itself. Hence try to do it in Prototype stage itself.

    Program, Test & Evaluate

    After finishing the robot design or robot manufacturing, you need to test if all the functions are perfect. So you have to check if all of the Robots that you manufactured are working and if all the functions you intended are working. By ensuring this step, you tend to give away a finished product to your end-users.

  3. New Trends in 2D to 3D Conversion – Technosoft Engineering

    Leave a Comment

    As per common belief, only one thing in the world is common and i.e. change. Everything keeps changing from time to time. We might not be capable of predicting the time when it will change. Probably, our personal experiences made us keep the world of Technology more change prone. Yes, unlike other industries Tech domain is quite dynamic. The urge for using latest versions then and there has pushed it forward quite unprecedentedly. Each time, there is an external influence which causes a new trend. Likewise, in the coming days, the following changes are said to turn the table and open up avenues in the arena of CAD design services. 2D to 3D Conversion services especially is said to have a new dimension.

    2D to 3D conversion

    CAD & Manufacturing Integration

    All the designs you create in CAD are at the end of the day going to be used at a manufacturing facility, but there has always been a gap of understanding which leads to lack of quality delivery. Hence, integration between CAD and manufacturing is the need of the hour. Probably, this is said to improve efficiency by over 30 percent in overall operations especially in 2D to 3D conversion services.

    IoT

    If there is one word ruling the tech domain and infact all our lives, it is IoT. Right from the smart home applications to integrated connections etc. IoT is there in everything. Consequently, every single machine or equipment manufactured today has to be IoT ready as per industry experts. Apparently, IoT is not only changing dynamics of consumers, but also the service providers as well as the manufacturers. Several manufacturers are implementing IoT applications to make work simple. CAD operations as well need to be IoT ready to simplify the whole operations.

    Cloud & Mobile CAD

    Mobile phones were not this important until someone found the potential to consolidate the life of an individual. Today we can do everything with a mobile phone like watching movies, playing games, reading news reports and what not? But experts have been saying CAD design and 2D to 3D conversion services can also be done with a smartphone. Yes, don’t we like to innovate? This is an example of how we can simplify professionalism.

    On the other hand, the advent of cloud services has opened up new avenues. Now Dropbox and Google Drive are said to get more sophisticated and simplified with simple storage and file management services.

    Augmented Reality

    If a team fails to deliver the best results, the core reason is lack of proper interaction. If you have a team of 100 people and each one looks after a task, there must be communication between them to keep the work going smoothly. But unlikely, an external push is always required to do this. Augmented reality will be the new external force as per industry experts. Superimposing computer generated imagery and data onto the real world are some of the changes expected in 2D to 3D conversion services. Apparently, you can make immersive experience with your CAD models using augmented reality.

    Since the dawn of large industrial facilities, industrial equipment vehicles also came into the fray. Since then there have been a lot of innovation in industrial equipment design. We see a lot of equipment coming up year after year. Some to handle large goods and vice versa, but whenever someone designs an industrial equipment they keep some critical factors in mind. Some of them are as listed below. These criteria will ensure your equipment will be of use despite the changing times i.e. its relevance will be felt forever beyond limits. Some of these are trends which might persist in years to come, but some have always been the talking point when it comes to a kickass industrial equipment design. (more…)

  5. Top 4 Factors in IoT Product Design – Technosoft Engineering

    Leave a Comment

    When was the last time you did manual defrosting to your refrigerator? When was the last time you switched off floor lights? Yes, IoT has made our lives simple by taking up the burden of all those extra efforts. In a way, it has made us lazy enough. This demand for instant solutions has driven the rise of IoT Product Design solution companies. But not all of them are viable and capable enough to understand and produce the right solution. If you’re stuck in knowing whether your service provider is capable enough or not, just look for the following parameters. If they follow any of these or all of these factors, then consider them to be fit for your project.

    Internet of Things

    Responsible Data Usage

    As a device connected to internet, data generation is all set to be high day after day. This creates abundant data thereby flocking more and more. As a result, this becomes redundant data generation and one cannot find the relevant information. So always keep a check on the data generated in the products and make your design viable enough. If your service provider is not guiding you on this, then he/she is probably misguiding you. There should be a conversation on what to do with the excessive and large data buildup in the system.

    Taking Context into Consideration

    Let us you’re designing a product. Will you design it simply because you have to do one? So you always define the purpose and have a context for the product design. Likewise the service provider should always understand the context and take your project forward. If they fail to understand the same then that is going to be a big disaster for your brand. Always ensure you get on to the discussion of context. If not, you need to find a better service provider.

    Architecture Security

    Cyber security is the talking point elsewhere. Even large corporations are vulnerable to cyber security online. Your service provider must possess a robust cyber security architecture and policy to survive cyber security breach. Even the well-known social media platform- Facebook and several other tech businesses were subject to cyber-attacks recently. Hence security of system architecture is quite essential as your design can anyhow be stolen by your competitors. In case you’re building a critical product say for a government defense project, it might be approved only if it is developed in an authentic and secure facility. Thus, the importance of architecture security is more than what you had imagined.

    Value Emphasis

    Value is the foremost important factor in any project that you take. It could be IoT product design, PCB design services, CAD design services or even engineering detailing. Value should be given foremost importance as you’re dealing with solving real time solutions of people. Hence in this case, emphasis on value is the key factor and your service provider should be on track. Be it research to innovate or frugal innovation. Service provider must do everything possible to make your product innovate enough to standout and deliver the best solution to all your end users’ problems.

  6. Everything About Food Processing Machinery Design? – Technosoft Engineering

    1 Comment

    Jams and pickles some decades before were homemade. Well, even now they are but not as prevalent as they used to be. Today we get instant food. While Jams and Pickles are basic processed food, nowadays we even get Pasta, Noodles and almost everything packaged. All we have to do is to add some hot water and eat. This is often called as Ready-to-Eat Food. These are processed in a facility and sent worldwide to people of different cultures. Aerated drinks, packaged chips and what not almost everything we see today is processed food.

    Engineers who make these huge food processing machines have a lot of creative process going on in their mind. These creative thoughts are triggered by couple of basic principles and understanding of the overall concept. Moreover, they make food processing machinery design with the concept of cooking for the masses. Wish to know how? Then join us in the ride of understanding machinery design.

    Food Processing Equipment Design

    Understanding Quantity

    Now let us connect this with cooking at our home. We all have vessels of different kinds and different sizes. If you’re living alone, you tend to have smaller vessels. If you live with 3 or 4 as a family, you need medium sized vessels and it goes on. In food processing industry, you’re preparing food for masses. It is going to be sent worldwide in packets for sale. Hence every single piece of chips etc. should be perfect and balanced with the right flavours. Vessels play an important role in this matter. You cannot manage to cook for that many with smaller vessels. In manufacturing facility, it is going to be a series of events happening simultaneously. Even if you stop once, you fail to manufacture enough for the rising demand of your product. Hence understanding quantity is the first thing in the mind of design engineers in food processing machinery design.

    Using the Right Materials

    Again, we use some couple of vessels at home. Some are thick and some are thin. Some are flat and some are hollow. For example, you need thicker pans to make pan cakes as the thinner ones burn them soon. Likewise, if you’re preparing deep fried food items, you need a thin vessel and an option to slow cook or in medium flame. By doing so, you cook fries evenly. Temperature changes from vessel to vessel and even alloy to alloy. If you’re using hard iron base, deep frying might happen with ease. The same you can do with stainless steel, but it might heat up soon.

    Cleanliness & Hygiene

    When you do something for the masses, you need to keep cleanliness in mind. The vessels are used once and the debris stays. Will you run the machines with the same leftovers? If you say yes, try to say no. This might sound normal in home cooking environment as we don’t use any preservatives. But when it comes to a facility of mass cooking, preservatives are involved and there are chances of insect infestations. But again, it is not that every time you have to clean, once a day will definitely be recommended. Hence a design engineer will always make an option to easy clean the vessel before running it for the next use or the next day. Hence cleanliness & hygiene is an integral part of food processing machinery design.

  7. General Process of Fatigue Analysis

    Leave a Comment

    Before letting a product in the market, every manufacturer runs a stress test on the product to see if it can withstand in any condition and last for long. So a product should be robust enough and should come through all these tests before entering the market. This is a quality analyzing process. Stress test is still a part of the process; there is a more general term that consumes stress test and i.e. Fatigue Analysis. The name might sound clinical, but its significance is not. Fatigue Analysis is to fundamentally test the capacity of the product and how many life cycles it can take. By doing this, you are releasing a product that is way more viable for your target audience to make you relevant for a prolonged time. Here is the general process involved in Fatigue Analysis.

    Fatigue Analysis

    Time & the No. of Cycles it Should Last

    When you make a product you come up with a plan. For example, when you manufacture a battery, you have a time planned for it to last. Your idea will be to let it last for three months. In the contrary, you might even think your product should last forever. But the tiny component comes with limited capacity and every time the one who uses might have to refill the battery. Hence when you manufacture the product, you need to decide how long the product should last.

    Stress Analysis for Each Load

    When we say each load, it is the cycle it revamps. Let us say the component you manufacture keeps falling down every one year. Hence you have to do a stress analysis for each load i.e. for the each cycle. So you will know how much refill, where to fix, how to fix etc. By doing so, you limit overall damages.

    No. of Cycles Each Loading Event in a Cycle Will See

    When you reload or refill to revamp the product, you should exactly know the time when the component will fail. So you can approach your clients, get the component and revamp it completely. If you fail to do so, they end up changing it with some other brand. This activity will amp up your relevance in the market.

    Find a Fatigue Curve with Correct Loading Ratio to Find Damage Produced by Each Stress Level for Each Loading Event

    Times keep changing. We might have a plan, but whatever happens is not going to be as we planned. Hence you should always come with a Plan B to cover up the extra damage. Fatigue Analysis suggests identifying the Fatigue Curve, testing the damage for each stress level and for each loading event. This activity will help you do the right changes while revamping in each and every cycle.

    Combine All Damages & Multiply by Desired Safety Factor

    Damages in each revamping cycle will differ. Hence you need to keep a note of damages that occurred in every cycle. This will help you ensure that you employ practices to limit the number of damage while manufacturing the next set of components.

  8. Top Elements of CAD Design Services- Technosoft Engineering

    Leave a Comment

    Manufacturing process is complex by its nature without doubt. Even a small component with a twist undergoes a lot of technicalities. So engineers indulge in drawing designs and follow same suit for all products. But quality might deteriorate over a period of time. Hence came Computer Aided Design, which is shortly called as CAD.

    CAD Design Services are now widely utilized in all industries right from automobile to electronics to name a few. Even though the design requirements differ from one industry to the other, the fundamentals remain the same. CAD consists of certain elements that are essential for your business. These elements are fundamental to any Computer Aided Design and they prove the relevance of CAD.

    CAD Design

    Computer Aided Analysis

    The main limitation of human intervention in certain task is, monotonous activities leading to errors and certain tough tasks leading to inaccuracy. One such is solving analytical problems. As on date, it is quite evident how useful computers have been in solving complex analytical problems in a short time. The same with human intervention will take more time comparatively. Hence the design engineer need not depend on another resource to get proper analysis or computation on a specific design. He/she can conduct the same without much effort. Hence an organization saves time and resources with the use of Computer aided engineering. Especially in a large organization which consists of numerous teams and reaching out to each team member and requesting data will be a big challenge.

    Computer Aided Visualization

    Visualization is the key element to any design. For CAD Design Services essentially, a designer should look at the possibilities in real before delivering the output. This seemed to be a very big challenge in manual operations as everything was dependent on the assumptions. Luckily Computer Aided Design allows you to see the prototype of the output before concluding a project. As it is well understood, you can make changes accordingly and deliver the right design for your clients. Therefore you stay in line with the requirement of your client and always deliver the best. A designer can visualize the product by

    • Automated drafting tools and graphics presentation
    • A way of presenting numerical data in graphs & charts
    • Virtual product animation
    • Visualizing the aesthetic look

    Computer Aided Synthesis

    With visualization, a designer can see how the end product might look. With Computer Aided Synthesis, one can see the complete prototype and you see this in real time. Hence one can easily evaluate the performance of the design and deliver the right product to his/her client. These three elements has been playing a major role in CAD Design Services and none of these elements can be skipped. Synthesis especially is highly critical. You cannot deliver a product without testing its capabilities and see if you have offered the exact requirement of the client. Hence these elements are highly essential in CAD Design Services and they come under Human factor. Under system factor, the important components include Hardware and Software. These are quite straight forward and self-explanatory.

  9. Principles To Be Followed For A Frugal Bus Body Design

    1 Comment

    Building an automobile is not a simple task as it sounds. We all talk about building a car from the scratches. Even we can imagine building a two wheeler from the scratches. But what goes into making a Bus? This huge vehicle obviously possesses bigger engine, wheels, nuts, bolts and a lot more. But how do they even make the body structure? It’s quite known that a lot of welding and other tasks are involved. But to make Bus Body Design successful, certain principles exists. The manufacturers who follow these principles will always have a winning edge over their competitors.

    Bus Body Design

    Use of Micro-alloyed Steel over Conventional Steel

    When a vehicle is carrying some couple of people, it needs the desired strength to withhold the overall weight for long. For example, a Car can handle 5 to 6 people maximum on average. The number might vary based upon each person’s weight. But that is the defined capacity for a car to carry. In case of a bus, on average it has to withstand 30 to 40 people at least. If it cannot withstand even that weight, it is not qualified to be a good Bus Body Design. So to ensure Bus Body is a good design and to let it withstand that many people for a prolonged time, your bus body must be made out of Micro-alloyed Steel. Conventional steel has been in place for long, but the former will help in holding back the welded parts tight for a very long time. Hence using Micro-alloyed steel is the most important principle for a killer bus body design.

    Testing Torsion Stiffness & Natural Vibration

    When a vehicle is made, a series of tests are undertaken. Stress test, stiffness test etc. are some of the examples. Torsion Stiffness and Natural Vibration tests are more common in bus body design tests. But unlike a car or two-wheeler, you can’t afford to test a bus for Torsion Stiffness and natural vibration. Hence prototypes are made to test the Bus Body Design structure. The obtained results from the design are molded into a prototype to test.

    Light Weight Bus Body Structure Design

    When you’re designing a bus body, always keep in mind, it has to be light weight. You cannot carry yourselves if you’re so heavy. Likewise, you cannot carry others as well. Hence weight is the most crucial factor in heavy vehicles. For example, a ship cannot float in the water if it is not light weight. Likewise, a Bus cannot move on the road if it weighs so much. Hence the use of micro-alloyed steel is apparently recommended for heavy vehicles like Bus.

    Reducing Total Bus Weight with 3D Design

    Did you know a 3D design can reduce the overall bus weight? Yes, but provided one makes use of composite materials. A recent research proved the use of composite materials will reduce the density of the whole object or vehicle. This when presented in 3D will actually show up with the layers, but is actually of a single layer.

  10. Top 5 Factors matter in Component Design Services – Technosoft

    Leave a Comment

    The world is not a single large entity. It is a collection of small entities put together. Likewise a product is a collection of different parts with specific functions. A car looks like a single entity from the exterior. But inside there are several components which triggers it to perform different operations. Hence a tiny equipment is critical than a large car body. There comes the need for component design services. Several factors matter when equipment is made. Quality is the first that comes to everyone’s mind, but there are certain critical factors that is not given due importance. Here are some of them.

    Component Design

    Safety

    Safety is alarmingly the most important factor especially in case of automobile. We often come across automobile accidents. These happen due to malfunctioning of a single product. Malfunctioning as well might occur due to several reasons. Lack of quality is cited as the most prevalent of all followed by improper and asymmetric designs. Let us say, a vehicle is over speeding in a national highway. A low quality component might not be able to take the stress and might cause an accident. Hence you need a cutting-edge component design service to make all your components worthwhile.

    Reusable Design

    The products we use today in our day to day life is completely different from the ones that were available a decade before. So over a period of time, you need to launch new products and stay relevant. But creating a new version of certain products becomes challenging after a point of time. Hence your component design services should be in a way that it will last for long. Overall, your design must be long lasting and survive. Moreover, when you’re making the next version, you must be able to reuse the existing design with modifications.

    Changes Incorporation

    Incorporating changes in the already existing product is bit of a challenge. Sometimes you might not know if that will work out 100 percent given the current conditions. For example, you might launch an 800 CC vehicle. But the requirement in the current market will be somewhere around 1100 CC. Almost every vehicle one can see in the given time might be more than that. Yet another key factor in component design services.

    Production Friendly Design

    A product undergoes several processes in a manufacturing facility before it reaches the end user. But the more a product stays in the making, the more is the cost involved. Hence not all products are production friendly. Kickass component design services will first ensure the product is production friendly by consuming less cost.

    Meeting Regulatory Requirements

    The availed component design services might have made your product great, unique and long lasting. But does it meet all the regulatory approvals? Your brand will be nowhere if you fail to meet regulatory requirements. Regulators have given guidelines on carbon emissions, trying to control environmental degradation. But often we see manufacturers taking shortcuts and avoiding the guidelines. Such businesses have not at all survived in the market.

  11. Unleashing the potential of IoT by connecting the physical and digital worlds

    1 Comment

    The global manufacturers are on the cusp of a fourth Industrial revolution at present. The so-called smart manufacturing is based on the IoT (Internet of things) and understanding of the rich data that resides at the network’s edge. To realize the full potential of industrial IoT, organizations must integrate the operational technology with the enterprise IT. They may need to collect data and analyze it companywide – from the customer order and production, to supply chain as well as delivery – to generate actionable insights.

    Digital Worlds

    By doing so, companies can better manage the production, address any customization requirements and generate customer insights. In turn, they can manage their businesses more intelligently, improve response time, reduce costs, promote innovation and boost revenues. IIoT is best understood as a system of systems and is constituted of different elements which are dependent on end-to-end system integration. In this blog, we discuss how industrial IoT is changing the competitive landscape for manufacturers.

    IIoT: Driving the new revolution

    The manufacturers must merge the operating technologies and enterprise IT to optimize performance, upgrade processes and develop valuable products. The industrial IoT connects people and the physical world including the physical world of places and machines with the digital world of cloud platforms, software, augmented reality, automation, artificial intelligence, and data. IIoT enables maintaining a single view of analytical data that operates with real-time agility and responds to adverse

    IIoT helps maintain a single view of analytical data, operating with real-time agility and responding to adverse events within the manufacturing plant. For this, the functional integration of various applications, infrastructure, and systems is needed. Engineers can create complex control systems to implement increasing levels of automation on the factory floor.

    The foundation of integrated shop-floor systems is created by the growth in technologies built on MES (Manufacturing execution systems) and open standards. The SoC (System-on-a-chip) and MEMS (micro-electromechanical systems) allow micron-scale integration of system functionality. The high-bandwidth networks, open IP standards, and virtual hardware have basically transformed the feasibility of building IIoT platform by reducing the required cost and resources. The cloud systems provide an increasingly secure and reliable network which delivers faster results. The system can also be scaled up as needed and can integrate new apps and services which analyze data and provide valuable insights.

    IIoT connects the devices to a network where they interact and exchange information. The real value of IIoT lies in the data generated from relationships between devices and their environment, data analytics, insights into efficiency, and yields. As per the latest research, by 2025- sensors and IoT will stand as pre-eminent digital technologies affecting the whole manufacturing sector. Immense potential will be created by the integrated sensor data, combined with advances in security, connectivity, analytics, and interoperability.

    Technologies transforming manufacturing companies

    IIoT is rooted in the physical space, unlike the traditional software applications. It integrates the data from the digital devices and systems in factories with the enterprise assets. It allows enhanced monitoring, data gathering, data integration, role-based information presentation as well as situational awareness for operators.

    The integration of Internet of things, components and cloud-based analytics results enables manufacturing companies to sense and contextualize real-time data. This information can be converted into actionable insights which help maximize efficiencies across all aspects of the business. This includes design, sourcing, production, delivery, supply chain, product monitoring, etc. The objective of IIoT is to convert the data into insights. It assists in informed decision-making, drives innovation and realizes efficiencies at scale.

    Data integration at enterprise, operations and customer level

    IIoT is a system of systems comprised of different elements and is dependent on end-to-end system integration. It presents a long-term opportunity- integrating information across the extended organization with Operational Technologies (OTs). The OTs that drive production, transportation operations and warehouse are included. IIoT creates synergy across the organization by integrating key attributes of intelligent devices. These devices have the capability to dynamically anticipate problems, diagnose the solutions automatically and adjust operations to maintain optimum productivity.

    Integration can address the stakeholder needs within the organization, across the vendor ecosystem as well as supply chain. Also, it can help customers externally by sales and service support and design feedback. This helps manufacturers gather information effectively and apply the insights obtained from networked devices to identify ways to reduce costs and increase efficiency. The systems can also be used to monetize data to enhance revenues.

    The benefits of IIoT are:

    • inexpensive processing
    • analytics technologies which automate traditional processes
    • infinite storage capacity

    Multiple applications and processes work seamlessly to create a digital replica of physical assets, systems, and processes. Using this digital twin, enterprises can monitor performance remotely, and make changes in real-time to improve efficiency. Companies can upload updates, meet service needs, increase precision and quality in production and engineering.
