First digital feeding system delivered
23.06.2021
At the beginning of the year, we were able to secure our first digital order following the successful acquisition of Hofmann & Stirner Zuführtechnik GmbH, now RNA Digital Solutions GmbH. Our customer was convinced by the feasibility assessment, which was demonstrated by the digital twin of the feeding system. Thanks to AI and multi-physics simulation software, we were able to fully simulate the solution without the need for a physical workpiece. This was a great advantage for the customer, who at that time could only provide his workpiece in the form of a CAD file.
