Virtual process plants for greater safety

WinMOD process simulation enables precise virtualisation of all functional structural units of industrial process engineering processes.

The real-time-oriented basic library of the WinMOD system software forms the basis for simulating continuous processes.
Based on this basic library, technology-specific macro libraries have been and continue to be developed that enable convenient manual and automated creation of simulation projects in all areas of technology. These libraries for simulating everything from the drive and sensor level to technological process simulation allow for the efficient creation of simulation models for everything from partial systems with individual controls to large-scale systems with complex control and management system structures.

The standard WinMOD installation already includes extensive macro libraries that can be expanded independently by WinMOD users at any time.

Chemistry and Pharmacy

Typical processes that carry out continuous or batch conversion of substances.
They are divided into main and auxiliary processes.
The aim is the economical and safe fabrication of basic materials or specialised products for all industrial sectors.

Biotechnology

Similar production processes are used as in the chemical/pharmaceutical industry, but the core here is the use of microorganisms, cell cultures or enzymes for the fabrication of products.
In future, it will be used in various areas such as pharmaceuticals, green energy and green chemistry.

Food

The focus is on processing, preserving and refining agricultural and raw materials. Typical processes include material- and energy-oriented product manufacturing, often combined with strict quality and hygiene standards.

Coal and steel industry

All processes involved in the extraction and processing of raw materials (coal, ores, salts, earths) and their conversion into basic industrial products (steel, cement, gypsum, various other building materials). These processes are usually very energy-intensive.

Air conditioning and refrigeration technology

Refrigeration machines for cooling and system components for cooling distribution and utilisation are a key factor in both industrial plants and building automation.

Energy

Energy generation plants based on fossil fuels (coal, gas, oil), nuclear power plants and increasingly promising variants based on environmentally friendly resources such as hydropower, solar, wind, tidal, etc., as well as energy distribution plants, are becoming increasingly highly automated with extreme demands on their availability.

Water and waste water

Water supply, from extraction, treatment, storage and distribution, as well as wastewater disposal, including transport, storage and treatment for environmentally sound disposal, are fundamentally important for a modern society and its industry.

Transportation and infrastructure

Technical installations in road transport (general traffic control, tunnels, bridges), rail transport (signalling and switch systems, signal boxes, etc.) and waterway transport (locks, weirs, ship lifts)

Building automation

All areas of technical building equipment such as ventilation, heating, air conditioning, security and fire protection that aim to improve energy efficiency, comfort, safety and cost-effectiveness in buildings.

Shipbuilding and Offshore installations

General shipbuilding for civil, technical and military use, offshore installations as bases for wind farms, gas and oil production facilities, and underwater stations.
