Abstract

The Emulate3D product range is designed to fulfil the requirements of industrial engineers working with a wide range of partly or fully automated projects including warehousing, distribution, production and baggage handling. Emulate3D products are used for many purposes by different departments at various times throughout the project lifecycle, and an efficient workflow is made possible by employing the same core model throughout. Increasing time and resource constraints imposed upon project managers mean that the broad brush academic approach offered by classic simulation products is no longer appropriate within industry, and that the tools of tomorrow will be more task-specific, and quicker to put into useful operation. Emulate3D products are matched to the skill sets of their target users, and aim to reduce the learning curve and increase first-look familiarity.
