Industrial Talk is onsite at OMG, Q1 Meeting and talking to Paul Oberly and Tangi Meyer with Dassault Systemes about "Virtual Twin and digitization of processes!"
Scott MacKenzie hosts the Industrial Talk podcast, featuring Tangi Mayer and Paul Oberly from Dassault Systems. Tangi, a senior strategic planner, and Paul, the lead for Delmia augmented experience in North America, discuss the integration of advanced technologies like computer vision and AI to create a "virtual twin" of real-world manufacturing processes. This digital representation allows for efficient, error-free production by connecting the virtual and real worlds, enhancing safety, and optimizing workflows. They emphasize the importance of data in driving business operations and the potential for AR to revolutionize manufacturing and inspection processes, making them more intuitive and efficient.

Outline
Guest Introductions
Tangi Mayer introduces himself as French, working for Dassault Systemes, specifically Demi are, the manufacturing brand.
Tangi describes his role as a senior strategic planner, focusing on anticipating trends and supporting future product and market developments.
Paul Oberly introduces himself as the lead for Delmia augmented experience in North America, covering Canada, the US, and Mexico.
Paul mentions the positive outcomes of their meetings at the OMG q1 meeting, including exceeding objectives and having productive discussions.
Overview of Dassault Systemes' Work
Tangi explains that Dassault Systemes uses advanced technologies like computer vision and AI to connect the virtual world with the real world through augmented reality.
Paul emphasizes the importance of this connection, especially in the context of automation and Industry 4.0, bringing the digital twin to the production floor.
Scott inquires about the bottom-line value and efficiencies gained from this approach.
Paul highlights the benefits of getting things done right the first time and digitizing tribal knowledge to ensure quality and cohesive execution.
Tangi's Background and Dassault Systemes' Acquisition
Tangi shares his background, mentioning his previous work with Dita, a startup supporting the industry with augmented reality solutions.
Dita was acquired by Dassault Systemes in July 2022, marking Tangi's official joining of the company.
Scott asks Tangi about the process of creating a digital twin for a manufacturer.
Paul explains that the product is the foundation for the business, and data is the driving force behind it.
The Role of Data and Virtual Twin
Paul discusses the importance of data in driving the business and connecting various systems like CAD, IoT, and Enterprise.
The virtual twin serves as the foundation for the business, integrating diverse subject matter areas into a holistic view.
Scott mentions the heavy lifting involved in maintaining clean and accurate data for the virtual twin.
Paul agrees, emphasizing the need for organizing and aggregating data into a unified space.
Applications of Virtual Twin in Manufacturing
Paul explains that the virtual twin can be used for both greenfield and brownfield manufacturing processes.
For greenfield, virtual commissioning allows for laying out the plant, testing functionality, and evaluating factory flow before any physical investment.
For brownfield, existing data like plan drawings and laser scanning can be augmented to create a virtual twin and simulate the plant.
Scott and Paul discuss the value of having a virtual twin for efficient and optimized manufacturing processes.
OMG Q1 Meeting and Aerospace Applications
Paul shares his experience at the OMG q1 meeting, focusing on speaking with aerospace leaders and discussing the proliferation of augmented reality solutions.
Scott expresses familiarity with companies using AR for plane identification and safety.
Paul highlights the importance of having a good foundation for AR, allowing for quick implementation and practical use on the production floor.
The discussion emphasizes the role of AR in making work safer and more intuitive, with traceable evidence of job completion.
Future of AR and Manufacturing
Paul discusses the potential of AR in various applications beyond manufacturing, such as assembly, inspection, and quality control.
AR is becoming a requirement for next-generation manufacturing execution systems, essential for complex assembly and quality control.
Paul explains the challenges of tracking hundreds of brackets and bolts in aerospace structures, emphasizing the need for practical tools.
