Siemens Digital Industries Software has released Tecnomatix Plant Simulation 2302.003. This software enables the creation of 3d visualization models (up to 500 objects) for simulation, validation and optimization of production systems and processes.


What's New in Plant Simulation 2404

1. AGV (Automated Guided Vehicle) Enhancements
- Safety Zone Visualization: Automatic adjustment of safety zones based on AGV parameters, enabling better visual validation of AGV operations and detection of critical interactions.
- Driving Mode Improvements: Introduction of a new driving pattern for AGVs, which includes stopping, turning, and continuing in a specific direction, enhancing logistics and warehousing operations without additional coding.
2. Worker Enhancements
- Home Location and Scope: Allows assignment of workers to specific machine groups or lines, improving simulation accuracy and reflecting real shop floor behavior.
- Worker Mediation Strategy: A new "choose nearest worker" strategy reduces non-productive walking distances, increasing value-added activities.
- Queue Management: Enhancements for workers to walk along queue lines, improving simulation accuracy with less modeling effort.
- One-sided Delimitation: Introduces barriers that workers can cross from only one side, ensuring correct walking paths and simplifying layout constraints.
3. Material Flow Enhancements
- Assembly Station Modes: New "Fill-Up Main MU" mode for assembly stations, allowing for mixed mode operations and simplifying packaging tasks.
- Enforce-working Attribute: Provides flexibility in using machine objects, allowing machines to operate even without parts, which is useful for tool-based operations.
- Pick-and-Place Robot: Wait-for-free-target feature to avoid deadlocks, enhancing the efficiency of material flow.
4. Visualization Enhancements
- 3D Poses and Synchronized Joints: Improved robot movement visualization with synchronized joint movements, reducing modeling effort.
- Fluid-Pipe Percentual Split: Supports percentage-based fluid splits, simplifying the modeling of piping systems.
- Color and Appearance Settings: Standard appearance tab now available for most objects, allowing for easier and more consistent color and material adjustments.
- High-Volume Buffers: Color-coded graphical displays indicating fill levels, aiding in visual inspection and management of buffer states.
5. Additional Topics
- Teamcenter & Study Manager Integration: Enhanced integration capabilities to streamline data exchange and improve workflow.
- Python Interface: Improved scripting and customization options via the Python interface, allowing for more powerful and flexible model enhancements.

Benefits: These enhancements bring a range of benefits


, including:

- Improved Usability: Enhancements in user interface and out-of-the-box functionalities reduce the need for custom coding, making it easier for non-experts to use the software effectively.
- Enhanced Performance: Optimizations in simulation speed and efficiency allow for handling more complex models with greater accuracy.
- Better Visualization: Advanced visualization tools provide clearer insights into operations, making it easier to identify and address issues.
- Increased Flexibility: New features and customization options provide users with more control over their simulations, enabling them to tailor the software to their specific needs.
- Streamlined Workflows: Integration improvements and new capabilities support a more cohesive and efficient workflow, facilitating better planning and decision-making.

Overall, the updates in Plant Simulation 2404 are designed to enhance the capabilities of users in simulating and optimizing their production and logistics systems, ensuring better performance and more informed decision-making.


Tecnomatix is a comprehensive portfolio of digital manufacturing solutions that help you to digitalize manufacturing and the process of turning innovative ideas and raw materials into transformative products. With Tecnomatix software and digital manufacturing, you achieve synchronization between product engineering, manufacturing engineering, production execution, and service engineering to maximize your manufacturing efficiency.
Tecnomatix Process Simulate in the Tecnomatix portfolio of digital manufacturing software optimizes manufacturing by modeling and simulating scenarios for production systems and their processes. With Plant Simulation you can build simulation models reflecting your real factory in a digital twin model. The simulation models run fast, are reliable along a virtual timeline and can generate key performance values in the same way that your real production system does. According to those results, you can make your performance improvements and optimizations in early planning phases, when the production system is not yet built or available.
