Projects from BEUMER Group are submitted to multi-stage testing. System simulation and emulation is used as part of these tests to verify the software and hardware upon completion of the system design and software coding.

A Crisplant developed SW tool generates emulation from the project specific 3D AutoCAD drawings of the system. Emulation links the actual hardware and the controls software to a computer model running the actions and initiating the I/Os and telegram flow in real time. This process ensures that the upper and low level software is fully tested before shipment to the Postal site. Using emulation to test the system early in the project, minimises valuable project site time and reduces costs.
