Simulation-based testing of machine control strategies is a key element of virtual prototyping and the use of digital twins for virtual commissioning. Unfortunately, this step can be cumbersome, as many automation tools provide limited options for machine-level, simulation-based controller testing, and these options often require moving development to an entirely new platform. MapleSim Insight gives machine builders powerful, simulation-based debugging and 3-D visualization capabilities that directly connect to your automation tools, so you can perform simulation-based testing of your controller easily and efficiently. MapleSim Insight provides both 3-D visualizations for quick visual feedback, and 2-D plots to get precise answers for testing and debugging, so you can always get the level of detail you need. With a real-time connection to most common automation platforms, MapleSim Insight shows you exactly how your control strategies will impact your machine – all before a physical prototype is constructed.

MapleSim Insight Features

Test the impact of your control strategies in real-time to fix issues and optimize performance without a physical machine present.
See 3-D visualizations of your models that run in real-time, giving you a high quality, CAD-based reference for your control strategy development.
Compare results from multiple testing scenarios using both 2-D plots and 3-D animations.
Use MapleSim Insight with any of your tools that support compiled Function Mock-up Units, such as the Rockwell Studio 5000® Environment or MathWorks® Simulink

New Features for 2022

With the 2022 release, MapleSim Insight offers new productivity and connectivity features. Use MapleSim Insight as a simple, low-cost solution for deploying MapleSim models to those who don’t have MapleSim.

The new Results Management tool lets you quickly view simulation results across multiple scenarios.
- When running simulations with different parameter values, the results can be named and saved for later retrieval.
- Multiple results can easily be compared by overlaying the plots on the same set of axes.
- Descriptive notes can be added to the stored results, making it simple to identify simulation versions and resume previous work
MapleSim Insight offers enhanced data mapping when connecting to automation software using EtherNet/IP. While MapleSim Insight has always automatically generated Electronic Data Sheet (EDS) files for a given FMU, it now additionally provides RSLogix 5000 files (L5X) for use with Rockwell Automation’s Studio 5000^® software family. These can be used to map the EtherNet/IP data to the tags inside of Logix Designer^®.
New Tutorial Mode makes it faster for teams to become productive with MapleSim Insight. The hands-on guide walks new users through common tasks, so they can get started easily.
