Technology

Today’s machines are increasingly automated, digital, and smart. Developing the control software for these machines is a major challenge, especially for one-offs where testing is limited and failures are disastrous. Controllab helps companies to meet this challenge with digital twins.

With in-house developed simulation tools and over 30 years of experience, we can build digital twins that resemble real machines very accurately. We have special technology to make these twins run in real-time and show the machine in 3D animation. This makes our digital twins ideal for interfacing with control software. Our digital twins are so realistic, customers even use them for training.

Software

Controllab is the owner and developer of the 20-sim software package. We use this technology to create digital twins: simulation models that we use to develop and test control systems and to build training simulators. 

HIL Simulation

Our digital twins are simulation models that mimic real machines. We apply physics and use measurement data from other machines to make our simulation models behave exactly as the real machine.

Physics

20-sim supports component based modelling. This is a modelling technique for physical systems that uses ports to connect components.

3D Animation

3D animation involves the creation of dynamic visuals within a three-dimensional environment, providing the impression that these virtual entities are navigating through a 3D realm.
