Digital Twin for Successful Product Startups
The Digital Twin is a representation of the physical plant assets (i.e. process equipment, instrumentation and controls) and the processes that take place within them (i.e. chemical reactions, separation processes, heat transfer).
Digital Transformation-Why Now?
In a Forbes article, When Digital Transformation Is The Only Way, Emerson Automation Solutions’ Chief Technology Officer Peter Zornio describes ways manufacturers and producers are undergoing these transformations.
Simulations Drive Value across Automation Lifecycle
Do you view simulation of your automation system as being complex? In a Control Engineering Europe article, Simulation needs to overcome perceived complexity and trust issues (pp. 12-13), Emerson's Ronnie Bains and other industry experts share how advancing technology...
Digital Twin Solutions across Industries
When you hear "digital twin," think of this as a digital replica of physical assets such as pumps and compressors, processes, people, places, systems and devices. Through these replicas, the operation of these things are modeled and simulated through their lifecycles....
Advancing Digital Twin Technology
Digital twins provide a simulation of the manufacturing or production process as well as the automation systems which control it. Depending on the level of fidelity of the process models, this digital twin can have many uses. I caught up with Emerson's Zuwei Jin who...
Creating Business Value with Augmented and Virtual Reality Technologies
At the time of the writing of this post, Wikipedia defined augmented reality as: …an interactive experience of a real-world environment where the objects that reside in the real-world are enhanced by computer-generated perceptual information, sometimes across multiple...
Dynamic Simulations Create Value across Lifecycle
Simulations can add value across the lifecycle of a manufacturing or production process—from the upfront design work for the capital project portion of the lifecycle to the ongoing operations and maintenance. In a Processing magazine article, Using Life Cycle Dynamic...
Ovation Digital Twin Technology-Embedded Simulation Update
Some key ways simulation technology is used by manufacturers and producers for training, optimizing operating procedures and engineering to evaluate ways to improve overall performance. In a 2019 Ovation Users' Group Conference presentation, Ovation Digital Twin...
Improving Refining Agility, Reliability and Collaboration
Production agility is an increasing objective among refiners and petrochemical producers. Changing characteristics of feedstocks and demand for produced products is forcing these companies to look for solutions to increase operational flexibility. In a Petroleum...
Planning and Executing Digital Twin Technology
You may have heard the phrase "Digital Twin" bandied about in our world of automation. It may conjure up mental images of models, simulations, training systems, and more. In an Institution of Civil Engineers article, Defining the digital twin: 7 essential steps,...
