Industrialization involves planning and implementing, the entire process from prototype to production. Virtual Manufacturing supports companies throughout the hole process and ensures that our customers reach their goals. We carry out industrialization projects in three stages: Pre-study, Detailed planning and Implementation.

The preliminary study includes a current situation analysis "As Is", a future scenario "To Be" and a plan for the implementation process "Process Design". In the detailed planning phase, we finalize the selected future scenario and prepare a final specification and documentation for procurement. In the implementation phase, we work with installation preparation, operator training, virtual and physical acceptance tests as well as operational start-up and tuning.

We are passionate about helping our customers implement industrialization projects at a lower cost, with shorter lead times and with safer implementation. Our working method provides the basis for starting change projects at an early stage, working with continuous improvements and avoiding surprises in new investments.

Manufacturing PLM enables engineers with different focus areas to share knowledge and to link products, processes and manufacturing resources in any way relevant and thereby breaking down knowledge silos well known in a conventional R&D center. Furthermore, working object oriented with processes rather than pictures in a powerpoint enables sharing, reuse, versioning and easy maintenance of master data. Closing the gap between product design and production engineering is a prerequisite for working efficiently with DFM/DFA and many other development disciplines.

Virtual Manufacturing offers support in our customers' work with strategic and tactical questions and organizational development. Most of the smaller and mid sized companies have a strategy for how the company should develop, but no organized plan for how it should be connected to the operative business.

Virtual Manufacturing offers support in our customers' work with strategic and tactical questions and organizational development. Most of the smaller and mid sized companies have a strategy for how the company should develop, but no organized plan for how it should be connected to the operative business.

Unfortunately this is an area that is often neglected because there is a shortage of time and resources in many companies to implement an organized, strategic planning. The strategic planning is a central part for the company's profitability and long term survival. Virtual Manufacturing sees production development strategy and tactical needs as a whole and considers that they are equally important for the company's goals and vision should give the right effect.
