ANSYS and Rockwell Automation will help customers develop simulation-based digital twins of products, processes, or manufacturing. Historically, manufacturers spent an unimaginable amount of time and money developing and testing physical product prototypes. Now, customers can design and test them through simulation to accelerate development and analysis, improve product quality, and reduce testing time across their organization.

Once a machine or production line is operational, manufacturers can generate a digital twin of their entire manufacturing process to create and test virtual "what if" scenarios. For example, by using runtime models generated from ANSYS® Twin Builder™, industrial companies can adapt to market demands more quickly and minimize risk. This is crucial in this sector, where manufacturers need to change line configurations to meet market demands. Now, customers can understand why a particular outcome occurs without damaging physical assets, resulting in faster time to market and significant overall savings.
