What Is Emulate3D?
Emulate3D for Machine Builders is a specialized virtual commissioning tool that accelerates the development of automated systems. It uses a methodology called computer-aided design is the model (CITM) to leverage mechanical designs directly from CAD software and link them with real control system logic (programmable logic controller (PLC) input/output (I/O)). The result is a dynamic digital twin—a powerful testbed used to verify system operation, debug sequences, and train operators offline before any physical components are built.

- Autodesk Inventor
- PTC Creo
Who Is Emulate3D For?
Emulate3D is ideal for the following sectors:
- Automotive
- Tire and rubber
- Material handling
Is Emulate3D Right For You?
Emulate3D is essential if your project requires offline controls testing to take logic debugging off the critical path, guaranteeing faster project development. By using a virtual environment, you can safely create system failures that would be costly or dangerous in the real world. The platform enables users to refine designs and eliminate costly physical prototypes, with users often reporting a reduction in installation and commissioning time.

Emulate3D Features
The platform creates a dynamic digital twin by combining mechanical CAD information with real control system logic. This synthesis produces a valuable testbed for controlling, testing, and verifying system operation.
The computer-aided design is the model (CITM) concept that integrates virtual model creation directly into preferred CAD systems (PTC Creo, SOLIDWORKS, Autodesk Inventor). This is achieved by marking CAD elements using an add-in ribbon, which recognizes them as control or activation elements.
The workflow supports accelerated development via easy modification. Subsequent CAD modifications can be carried out, and the model regenerated without disrupting the rest of the model, streamlining the development schedule. These Emulate3D features guarantee faster automation project development.
