DUALIS AREAPLAN

Plan and optimize assembly and production hall space in Visual Components using digital shop allocation, time-based planning, and 3D visualization of spatial constraints.

DUALIS AREAPLAN

The DUALIS AREAPLAN add-on enables planners to visualize, allocate, and optimize hall space across projects and time, considering real-world constraints such as space availability, equipment dimensions, and building limitations. This provides clear insight for improving space utilization, avoiding conflicts, and supporting data-driven layout and assembly planning decisions.

  • Overview

    DUALIS AREAPLAN is a digital space management and shop allocation solution that integrates with the Visual Components simulation platform. It helps manufacturers and assembly planners optimize the use of limited hall and assembly space by planning spatial and temporal layouts, checking constraints, and visualizing occupation across multiple sites. AREAPLAN replaces static planning tools like Excel with a centralized digital approach that improves transparency, maximizes space utilization, and supports informed decision-making for production and assembly projects.

  • Features

    • Digital space management for assembly, production, and hall allocation planning.
    • Realistic 3D visualization of assembly and restricted zones with flexible dimensions.
    • Scheduling of projects with time-based mapping of spatial usage.
    • Collision checking and constraint consideration (e.g., building height, floor load, crane capacity).
    • Centralized multi-site coordination with consistent data storage.
    • Integration with Visual Components layouts and the ability to import CAD geometries.
    • Export and reporting capabilities for occupancy plans and project status.
