TP 2.01 FX-Integrated Toolchain and Collaborative Engineering

Engineering processes are time-consuming, complex, and therefore expensive and prone to error – a risk in global competition. Collaborative engineering with seamless data availability accelerates processes, makes the factory outfitter’s knowledge built up usable for future processes and thus strengthens competitiveness, sustainability and resilience.

The FX-Solution in detail

  • integrated toolchains – from design and engineering to simulation and virtual commissioning
  • standardized data exchange between engineering tools from different manufacturers
  • trustworthy collaborative use of engineering data

Digital twins for factories

Integrated engineering toolchains create digital twins that are enriched with relevant information for the virtual planning, design, and commissioning of production plants. These digital twins enable the simulation, forecasting and optimization of production processes and systems over their entire life cycle.

Accelerate engineering processes

Engineering processes often involve multiple companies and a wide range of tools. This frequently results in interruptions and information loss at the interfaces. Standardization promotes loss-free data exchange, reducing the need for time-consuming rework and increasing the efficiency and quality of the processes.

Data sovereignty ensures a competitive edge

Data sovereignty is crucial for companies to retain control over their data. It facilitates compliance with compliance guidelines, prevents data loss and enables targeted sharing of sensitive information. This fosters trust in collaborative engineering processes, supports innovation partnerships and ensures competitive advantage.
