Are you trying to minimize the risk on your upcoming automation project ? If you would rather be safe than sorry you’ll want to test drive your software. That is why we provide you with virtual facilities that allow you to thoroughly check your control software before you go live.

 

Whether you are an automation engineer, a project manager, the facility manager or the CEO of the company you all have a vested interest in fast and flawless delivery of your new automated facility.

In complex automation projects one of the main risk components is the software delivery. The main reason for this is the lack of having the real automation equipment available to test the control software application prior to having to go live. This often results in serious bugs and hick-ups appearing at the very end of the project when everybody counted on the system going live. The costs incurred by all project partners in getting the system up and running as fast as possible is often very high and can cause a serious dent in the estimated ROI the project was approved upon.

 

Sagility provides virtual automation systems and can deliver them way before the first actual mechanical component is available. This virtual automation communicates with the control applications (PLC/WCS/MFC/WMS) in exactly the same way as the actual equipment does and provides the software development groups with a platform to thoroughly test their software considerably earlier in the process 

 

The multiple benefits of this approach are obvious :
