Maplesoft ™ today announced new turnkey solutions for machine designers that make virtual commissioning very accessible, even for organizations that have no modeling and simulation experience using digital twins. By providing a combination of engineering products and services, Maplesoft will work closely with organizations unfamiliar with virtual commissioning to identify a suitable project, develop a high-fidelity virtual model, and deploy that model to anyone in the industry. organization that needs it using MapleSim Insight, a simple yet powerful simulation platform.
For more than 10 years, Maplesoft has provided engineers with modeling and simulation tools for faster, more cost-effective product development. By adopting a model-based simulation approach, companies can solve machine performance problems by diagnosing the root causes of problems that would otherwise be very difficult to identify. However, designing model-based digital twins is a new set of engineering skills that many companies have yet to develop, preventing them from reaping the benefits of this new technology.

To address these issues, Maplesoft now offers new turnkey solutions for creating digital twins and implementing virtual commissioning. Maplesoft provides customers with complete solutions to diagnose, repair and optimize machine performance. Customers can seek solutions to individual problems without having previous simulation experience, and Maplesoft will provide them with a validated digital twin that can deliver powerful and cost-effective results. These digital twins are developed using MapleSim, Maplesoft’s multi-domain modeling and simulation tool, which provides a single environment to model all of the key systems found in typical machine designs, including mechanical systems,
Customers also get a new version of MapleSim Insight, an inexpensive tool for simulating, viewing, and sharing MapleSim models with teams who are not already familiar with the modeling tools. In 2021, MapleSim Insight offers users faster simulation results, more options for 2D plots and 3D visualizations, and enhanced capabilities for in-depth and personalized analysis. Customers can also use MapleSim Insight for real-time machine control code visualization and testing, with direct connectivity options for industry standard automation tools. The same 3D visualizations can also be used by non-specialists,
“Most companies already understand that they can save time and money in the long run by using digital twins in their product development,” said Chris Harduwar, vice president of business development at Maplesoft. “What keeps them from moving forward, however, is the effort it takes to get started. Learning how to build a model is a big investment in the short term, which can be difficult to justify when all the world is busy and you are not sure whether the theoretical advantages will translate into concrete advantages in your specific context.
The new turnkey solutions from Maplesoft are now available alongside the new versions of MapleSim and MapleSim Insight. The MapleSim 2021 product line makes it easier for engineers to solve design problems than ever before, with improved simulation performance and 3D visualizations, new ways to share models with those who don’t use MapleSim, and a multitude of new and extended component libraries.
