3DEXPERIENCE platform. This technology allows engineers to connect a "Virtual Twin" of a production line to actual PLC code, enabling the validation of automation logic before physical hardware is ever installed. Dassault Systèmes blog +4 Core Functionality & Roles DELMIA uses specific software "roles" to handle different aspects of the simulation: Virtual Commissioning Analyst (RVN): This is the primary role for executing simulation scenarios. It allows you to connect 3D equipment and sensors to a PLC program to validate and correct code early. Equipment & Layout Engineer (ETR): Used alongside the Analyst role to create mechatronic "smart devices". You define the sensors, parts, and mechanical logic of the equipment. Robotics Virtual Commissioning: Specifically focuses on programming robots and synchronizing them with a virtual PLC. It supports both
