Enable Operator Training & Advanced Testing of Processes Through Dynamic Simulation
Safe Testing Environment Our Digital Twins provide significant value by enabling engineers to safely test new or modified configuration before implementing them in a live environment. This ability to simulate and assess changes in a risk-free environment helps identify potential issues early in the process—ensuring that only well-vetted modifications are applied to the control systems. This not only enhances safety but also increases efficiency by preventing costly downtime or system failures. Automation engineers can leverage the digital twin to refine control strategies and fine-tune system performance based on the underlying process dynamics, ultimately leading to more reliable and optimized operations.
Training Simulations A digital twin can also revolutionize training for operators, maintenance technicians, and engineers. By providing custom courseware and immersive training experiences, a digital twin allows users to practice navigating displays, manipulating equipment, troubleshooting, and diagnosing issues in a controlled, offline environment. This eliminates the risks of real-world errors while still exposing trainees to a wide range of operating conditions, including rare events that may not be frequently encountered on the job. Digital twin simulations ensure a robust training approach that develops the necessary skills for personnel to handle critical situations, ultimately reducing the risk of human error and improving overall plant safety.
Upskilling Tool The digital twin also enhances operator performance by offering a variety of training solutions tailored to different experience levels and objectives. While new operators can use the system to onboard quickly, experienced operators can undergo recertification and upskilling to reach top-quartile performance. The platform allows operators to respond to equipment failures and malfunctions through realistic simulations, which deepen their understanding of abnormal operations. Through interactive training exercises, operators can gain valuable hands-on experience and critical thinking skills that would be difficult to develop through traditional on-the-job training alone. The ability to rewind, replay, and reflect on their actions in the training environment improves their decision-making and enhances overall training effectiveness.
