Connecting the Real and Virtual Worlds for Industry 4.0
ALTEN, a global leader in engineering and technology consulting, partnered with 3dverse to unlock the next generation of smart factories. Together, they deliver real-time digital twins that transform how industrial operations are designed, managed, and optimized.
The Challenge
Traditional factory design and management rely on static models and siloed systems. These methods limit collaboration, slow down innovation, and make it costly to test new processes or predict failures.
The Solution
With 3dverse’s cloud-native platform, ALTEN introduces dynamic, interactive simulations directly linked to live factory data. Industry teams can:
Visualize production lines collaboratively on any device (PC, tablet, AR/VR).
Run ergonomic studies, failure analyses, and workflow optimizations in real time.
Connect IoT, AI, and industrial systems into a persistent, interoperable 3D environment.
This integration makes the factory faster to adapt, safer to operate, and easier to innovate.
The Impact
By bridging the real and virtual worlds, ALTEN and 3dverse deliver measurable outcomes:
Reduced downtime through predictive failure analysis.
Lower costs with virtual testing before deployment.
Enhanced workforce training in immersive, risk-free environments.
Continuous performance management through live digital twin monitoring.
We aim to demonstrate that a digital twin architecture not only optimizes performance management but also enables immersive training and research within a virtual factory. This includes ergonomic simulations, failure analysis, and enhanced physical workflows.
