Notice Information

Notice Title

Upgrade of Visual Components Licenses with Premium Training

Notice Description

Visual Components is a powerful 3D manufacturing simulation software that allows users to replicate and run factory simulations. It includes a large library of assets which will allow a user to create their factory layout. The software allows you to program robots and AGVs which can be exported to reality. Additionally, the software has an easy method of creating process flow logic and conducting virtual commissioning of production lines. The uniqueness about this software is the flexibility in setting up complex production lines which require bespoke models to be simulated. Visual components allow you to input custom cad models and simulate its behaviour which can interact with the rest of the production setup.
