This ensures that the ongoing production process can manufacture the market-demanded modules error-free and on schedule.<\/li>\n<li><strong>High product variety and customization<\/strong><br>The production line is designed for a wide range of wall modules with different dimensions and specifications. Thanks to the modular construction, lengths from 300 mm to 7,000 mm in 1-mm increments are possible. This flexibility allows for the production of over 1,000 variants and ensures high adaptability to specific customer requirements.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Integration of hardware and software<\/strong><br>During the commissioning of the Smart Spaces wall assembly line at VDL Steelweld, hardware and software components had to be precisely integrated and synchronized. Without simulation, the high number of variants could lead to unexpected errors. The process control was managed via a Siemens S7-1500 PLC, while four Fanuc robots handled motion and process control.<\/li>\n<li><strong>System complexity and material flow<\/strong><br>The production line includes several automated process steps with a complex material flow. Coordinating the individual components and ensuring their flawless interaction is essential for smooth production.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Time pressure and potential production delays<\/strong><br>The tight timeline for commissioning the line required a fast and error-free implementation. Unexpected problems during physical commissioning could lead to significant delays and costs.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Error strategy<\/strong><br>Proactive error detection and prevention were necessary to avoid costly downtimes and rework.
