Discover the transformative power of simulation and how it can elevate your business operations, in our latest video. Join us as we explore the world of simulation, its numerous advantages, and the innovative tools offered by Danfoss Drives. Whether you're new to simulation or looking to optimize your current processes, this video is packed with insights and practical solutions.In this video, Norbert Hanigovszki, Head of Drives Intelligence at Danfoss Drives, explains how the use of simulation can give you peace of mind, reduce your risks, and give you an optimized and efficient design.Gain more insight into these tools from Danfoss Drives:
MyDrive® Virtual, which offers you high-fidelity drive models that are compatible with over 150 simulation tools worldwide
MyDrive® Simulation, which is a cloud-based platform for enhanced collaboration between colleagues, for high efficiency
MyDrive® HIL, which lets you experience real-time hardware in the loop simulation. This tool combines actual Danfoss control components with virtual applications, offering unmatched fidelity and cost savings
With stringent quality demands and complex challenges in design, test and commissioning of new machines and product lines, digital tools facilitating SIL or HIL testing enable you to achieve the best results faster. Which means you can go to market ahead of your competitors.
Physical prototypes are expensive. To optimize design and gain a more sustainable approach to test systems, MyDrive® digital tools enable you to simulate testing and commissioning, before entering the workshop or lab in practice.
Digital tools such as HIL or SIL simulators offer a range of cost benefits. These empower designers to predict the performance and lifecycle of power converters with minimal capital investment (CAPEX). With these tools, designers can thoroughly test every aspect of an idea with no need for physical prototypes, test benches, or travel expenses.
Simulation facilitates collaboration in an open environment, enabling experts to discuss freely and develop ideas together. Simulation comprises both solution and context in a dynamic and interactive way. The multidisciplinary synergies fostered by simulator tools help you to explore possibilities (“what-if" scenarios) and find innovative solutions, in a manner that uses engineering hours highly efficiently.
Cloud-based solutions make simulating easily accessible, since no IT infrastructure is required.
Future-proof your systems using our unique simulation offering. Product development using our tools equips your products with new functions and features reliably and quickly, since the simulator tools mirror our physical products exactly. Software updates of installed drives are also reflected in these Danfoss digital tools.
HIL (hardware in the loop) simulation: Here you get real-time behavior using the same controller electronics as those integrated in the physical drive. Expand the system with your own electronic and software parts as desired. This is the most advanced simulation tool, typically providing the best most accurate performance.
SIL (software in the loop) simulation: Here you get maximum flexibility. Put the system together freely on a desktop computer or get started fast with a cloud-based solution.
Build a digital twin of your own system, using our simulation products. Use the digital twin for monitoring, optimization and more, to revolutionize your systems.
Simulation has a positive impact on the quality of the final product delivered. Verification testing during development will boost your test system for several reasons:
Even when it comes to validation testing of your products and services, simulation can play a role. By using the highest fidelity tools, such as HIL simulation, you can reduce or completely eliminate manual validation work.
In the future, simulation models will be required for compliance purposes. For example, the transmission system operator (TSO) may require a multi-MW electrolysis plant to demonstrate compliance in the form of simulation models, before permitting connection to mains. Such requirements could apply to testing battery management systems with electronic control units, or other complex controllers in conjunction with power electronics.Take your simulation compliance to the next level, using MyDrive® simulation tools from Danfoss Drives. These tools empower you to meet the demands and requirements of future legislation.
