RE: Single Conveyor in Linear mode

Hi @Webb, There is the Property "Simulation Preferred Physics Mode". With this, you can have a volumetric conveyor in a planar model or a planar conveyor in a linear model. The other way around, I am not aware. What do you want to achieve? Maybe there are other solutions to your problem. - ...

RE: How to Test Siemens Servo Drives and VFDs in Emulate3D for Virtual Commissioning?

@⚙ Bernard Brooks, I don't have to add anything additional to add. What I see in at customers is usually a simpler approach only using Emualte3D and PLCSIM Adv. The Drives and Servos are usually a bit of custom tailored C# code. The assumption here is that the servo-communication is tested separately ...

Hi @Mahadevag! The Generic Controller is defined in the CITM Project that comes with the Cad is the Model Catalog. Your need to add a reference to that project to access the data types (https://store.sim3d.com/demo3d_2026/c__script_references). To get the aspect you can use Visual.FindAspect () ...

Hi @Campbell, This depends heavily on the physics engine you are using. The default engine (PhysiX) can't do mesh physics on dynamic bodies (i.e. Loads) and will always fall back to multi-convex. You might want to look at AGX in your use case. You can find more details about all this here: h ...

Hi @Webb! I found a "nicer" Way to find your current source folder for your Emulate3D Project (especially if you have multiple instances running at the same time). public static string getSourcePath([CallerFilePath] string file ="") ( return file; ) In a constructor you can just ...

Hi @Lesoin! I just gave Rider a try and I was able to edit code in it and Emulate3D would compile the changes. For this I did the following: Started Visual Studio Prof (probably would also work with VS Code) from within Emulate3D. This will create the files in the temp folder Find the ...

Hi @Huh! I'm sceptic... but I have not tried. Your first hurdle will be supplying Emulate3D with a graphcis card in the VM. There is Documentation on how to do it here: https://store.sim3d.com/demo3d_2026/virtualization_guide You can also first try to fall back to the legacy renderer: ...

Hi @stormmaker! My understanding of how all that works together is, that when you click back into the Emulate3D-window, Emulate3D will scan the temp-folder VisualStudio is working in for changed files and if it finds something it will recompile the project/script that changed and everything that depends ...

Hey Lesion, I have not tested his myself but it could be correct. You can Check if the Properties "Script" and "NativeTypeName" are set correctly afterwards. There may also be additional scripts on PhotoEyes and other children of the Turntable. If you just need an "bare" Turntable ...

In the tutorial you overwrite the "VehicleLogic" to create your own dispatching etc. I have not tried overwriting other stuff... but why not... Usually I use the existing methods exposed by the VehicleFramework to control individual vehicles as I need it. ------------------------------ ...

Dangerous half knowledge her on my side: I understand, that you setup the Profinet Devices in TIA and assign address ranges to each. PLCSIM Adv will tell the simulated PLC that these devices exist and you connect Emulate3D to PLCSIM Adv and will write into these address ranges so that the plc program ...

I think Profinet devices are not listed as they are in an Allen Bradley PLC. You access them via the IO-Adresses or the Logical names you give these addresses in a Tag Table... ------------------------------ Friedrich Rutzen SimPlan AG (German VAR) ------------------------------

Hi! When Using PLCSim Advanced Emulate3D is able to list all Tags (IO Addresses and DBs) as you are used to with Allen Bradley. You can find an example with the PLC program in the tutorials. Here are the speed bumps I know of my head: Switch The connection from "synchronized" ...
