Fujitsu Limited and Digital Process Ltd have released the V15L12, the latest product in their virtual product simulator (VPS) series of 3D virtual testing tools for the manufacturing sector.

One of the features of VPS, intended for the development of copy machines, servers, and other such products with densely packed electrical and mechanical components, makes it possible to test the assembly process through computer simulation using 3D models. As testing can be conducted in the design and process-planning phases without relying on physical prototypes, there is less need for corrections and revisions in later phases, thereby making the development cycle shorter and less expensive while increasing product quality.

This new software dramatically accelerates the process of creating product-assembly animations, cutting the time required to one-tenth that of its predecessor. This makes it possible to quickly perform tasks such as instructing production-line operators in the assembly process by using assembly animations. The software can be used directly in design and manufacturing settings to study and confirm the assembly process, as animations can be easily generated by not only process-planning engineers, but by designers and line operators as well.
