SYSTEM–LEVEL SIMULATION FOR

MACHINE DESIGN

A single environment for
multidomain systems.

Fast-track productdevelopment using
Virtual Prototyping.

Accelerate product developmentwith MapleSim
MapleSim brings multiple engineering domains(mechanical, hydraulic, multibody, and more) andover 900 built-in components into a single modelingplatform, allowing you to:•Make informed design decisions at an earlier
stage when changes are cheaper.

•Reduce time and money spent in physicalprototyping and exploring customizations.

•Right-size the actuator components(hydraulic/pneumatic cylinders, motors, gears,bearings, etc.)•Extend the use of your virtual
prototype using MapleSim Insight allowing
non-experts to explore, visualize, and test newscenarios.

SYSTEM–LEVEL SIMULATION FORCONTROL TESTING

Reduce cycle times.

Safely test control
strategies.

Test PLC code against avirtual model.

Apply VirtualCommissioning.

Improve equipment performance with MapleSim
By connecting MapleSim virtual models with your automation software tools, you can:•Start control software testing sooner by running your control code tests against a virtual
model of your machine.

•Easily convert your model to an FMU (Functional Mockup Unit) for seamless incorporation
to common automation platforms including B&R Automation Studio®, Beckhoff TwinCAT® andRockwell Studio 5000® software.

•Fix issues and optimize existing machines without replacing hardware.

•Diagnose control systems and motion profiles to reduce vibrations and safely maximizethroughput.

•Develop digital models for Virtual Commissioning and Digital Twins.

MapleSim is an advanced system-level modeling tool that enables innovation
and reduces development risk, so you can create better products, faster.
TMRapid creation and testing of initial concepts
By enabling quick prototyping and testing of design concepts, MapleSim
allows you to try out more ideas in less time, getting you on track
quickly and energizing the creative design process.

Flexible environment for modelingmultidomain systems
With MapleSim, you model your entire system inside a single
environment, so you can track down design flaws arising from
unexpected interactions between different domains, and even preventthese problems from occurring in the first place.

Connect virtual models to your control toolchain
Integrating a MapleSim model of your machine with your automation
software allows a safe space to develop and validate the controller
code against a virtual machine, saving time and reducing PLC errors
while avoiding harm to machinery and workers.

Computationally efficient models
MapleSim produces high fidelity, computationally efficient models
suitable for in-the-loop simulations, controller design, and activities suchas optimization, sensitivity analysis, and parameter sweeps, where many
simulation cycles are required to get results.
