Digital twins were an exciting development before the pandemic, but in the past few months, digital twins and virtual commissioning have become a requirement at some companies.
Recently, we presented a case study at Siemens' Realize LIVE Europe virtual conference. In this case study, we combine data analytics from multiple sources (FANUC robots, CNC, etc.) and digital twins to find and solve production blocks on CNC lines for an OEM.
Case Study: Using MindSphere Data for Production Blocks
Earlier this month, Sam Hoff, CEO presented at Siemens' Realize LIVE Europe virtual conference. In this case study, we show how we are using MindSphere™ to collect production data of an OEM’s floor to identify production blocks on CNC lines. Demonstrates how data was collected both from Siemens systems and FANUC robots, as well as how we created a digital twin to design solutions to the production blocks.
We are pleased to announce that we are one of the first Value Providers, part of the B&R Qualified Partner Program. B&R Automation, a member of the ABB Group, is an automation company that focuses on adaptive machines.
“Patti Engineering is pleased to be named a B&R Value Provider," said Sam Hoff, CEO of Patti Engineering. "We look forward to working closely with their distributors in the Michigan, Indiana, and Texas regions to help them achieve market share growth through successful implantation of projects for our mutual clients."
B&R has expanded the Value Provider Program to meet the need for a new generation of systems integrator familiar with the adaptive machine’s core technologies, not just conventional control systems. These include intelligent track technology, Machine-Centric Robotics, digital twins and integrated vision.
Senior Engineer Ryan Goad has successfully completed the Inductive Automation Gold Level Certification test for Ignition Software version 8.0, a powerful web-based industrial software platform for SCADA, MES & IIoT applications.
