Start with digital feasibility studies
With twin, you can simulate realistic processes and scenarios right from the proposal stage. Inspire your customers and accelerate decision-making.
Simple creation of sequences
Create processes with drag-and-drop ease and without programming knowledge. By creating even complex processes with ease, you can identify design flaws and bottlenecks early on. This allows you to optimise your processes in no time at all.
Fast model creation thanks to library
Benefit from existing models and create your digital twin in a matter of seconds. Whether robots or your individual standards such as grippers or entire machine modules – with twin you can quickly integrate existing components and start your simulation in no time at all. Maximum flexibility, minimum effort – for faster results and more efficient workflows.
Real robot kinematics
Easily include robots in your concept simulations and optimise processes in no time. Easily create and optimise robot sequences directly in the simulation. With realistic speeds and accelerations, you can simulate movements accurately – for accurate cycle time estimates and optimised processes.
// In Engineering
Commission machines virtually
Put your machines into virtual operation before the real implementation begins. Speed up the development process and avoid costly errors.
Test your real control program
Test your real control program, robot program and HMI directly on the digital twin. Find and correct errors in your code before they cause real damage. Connecting a wide range of control systems to twin has never been easier, even with thousands of I/O signals.
Test and optimise mechanics
Check the functionality of your mechanical designs and optimise mechanical components directly in the simulation. twin’s state-of-the-art physics simulation realistically simulates forces and movements. This allows you to test and optimise even complex mechanical relationships.
Real-time collision detection
Identify and fix mechanical and software faults before real damage occurs. Save time and money with accurate simulations and early problem detection.
// In Operation
Intuitive 3D-HMI
Use advanced 3D HMIs that are not only intuitive, but also stunningly designed to improve machine usability.
Seamless integration into existing HMIs
twin integrates seamlessly with existing HMI systems, regardless of vendor or architecture. This means you can use your familiar and proven environment and enhance it with the benefits of 3D operation.
Reuse models without additional effort
Save time and money by seamlessly reusing the models created in engineering in your HMIs. Added value without extra effort.
Improved user experience for plant operators
Provide a new user experience for the operator. This makes operation easier and reduces training costs and downtime. For example, display fault messages where they occur and guide operators through maintenance scenarios. Or enable natural operation where the operator can, for example, directly touch machine components in 3D to open manual operations.

Our Customers’ Opinion
The simulation software twin delivers what digifai promises. We are thrilled.
The software fulfils all our wishes – we can master even the most demanding requirements with twin. Such fast and competent support is unique. twin is constantly evolving and always focusses on customer needs. Keep up the good work!
We are an Austrian SME, develop turnkey special machines and have been looking for a suitable software for the virtual commissioning of our machines for a long time. With the software twin from digifai, we now secure the complete development process of our machines at an early stage and save valuable time during commissioning! With twin, we have definitely backed the right horse in this area!
twin offers us as a medium-sized special machine manufacturer the possibility to minimize risks in the concept phase, to secure the design at an early stage and with the virtual commissioning a shorter time-to-market for our customers.
The possibility of simulating designs physically correctly, checking them for feasibility with various use cases and putting them into operation virtually opens up a completely new market access for us as a service provider in partnership with digifai.
By simulating the entire machine at an early stage, we can significantly reduce risk and save costs. The entire control software including HMI and control system is ready and tested before the machine is built.
To conduct our research, we need a secure environment in which we can test AI algorithms for machines as realistically as possible. twin is perfectly suited for this purpose.
twin enables us to create digital twins of our production machines. digifai’s many years of experience as an integration partner is visible in the small but important details of their solutions.
