Visual Components announces upcoming NVIDIA Omniverse-powered integration
The new integrated functionality brings real-time, photorealistic visualization powered by NVIDIA Omniverse libraries into the Visual Components simulation environment.
Espoo, Finland, Oct. 29, 2025 — Visual Components, in collaboration with NVIDIA, today announced the integration of NVIDIA Omniverse libraries into their Visual Components platform. Scheduled for release in early 2026, the integration enhances the Visual Components simulation platform with a new viewport (a visualization window inside the software).
The viewport delivers real-time, high-fidelity rendering, so any updates made in the simulation environment are immediately reflected and shown with realistic lighting and materials in the viewport. This allows manufacturers and system integrators to explore and review factory layouts with greater realism and clarity, while fitting seamlessly into their existing Visual Components workflows. Users do not need to rebuild models or use additional software or change their processes; geometry, structure, and materials flow automatically into the Omniverse-powered viewport.
Ultimately, this development offers manufacturers and system integrators a more immersive and effective way to visualize, review, and present their layouts, all within their familiar Visual Components environment.
While the initial release focuses on real-time rendering, the foundation is built for more: making simulation models look closer to reality and preparing them for future use in digital twin scenarios.
This project is just the beginning of our collaboration with NVIDIA. By developing with NVIDIA Omniverse libraries, we’ve created a strong foundation for future functionality. Today the viewport delivers more realistic layout visualization in real-time; tomorrow it will support validating changes against real-world performance on the shop floor, enabling predictive insights, and improving decision-making across engineering and operations.
Juha Renfors, VP of Product Management, Visual Components
For customers, the integration will help with faster alignment, stronger communication, and greater confidence when making design and investment decisions. Layouts created in Visual Components can now be reviewed and presented in a shared 3D space that looks and feels closer to reality, making proposals and alternatives easier to understand for both technical and non-technical stakeholders.
With this integration, we are narrowing the distance between digital models and the reality they represent. When a factory layout looks and feels real, it becomes easier for decision-makers at every level to understand the options, agree on a direction, and invest with certainty.
Mikko Urho, CEO, Visual Components
Some customers of Visual Components have already had the opportunity to preview the integration. MiTek, a global construction and engineering company, will be among the first to pilot it. They see potential not only in the lifelike, real-time rendering that makes layouts easier to review and share, but also in broader uses such as creating marketing and documentation materials and developing effective training resources for personnel.
It adds tremendous value by allowing us to present our machines more effectively for marketing and training purposes, bringing us closer than ever to the experience of working with the actual equipment.
Xavier Ficquet, Engineering Manager, MiTek
With the integration of NVIDIA Omniverse libraries, Visual Components strengthens its mission to help manufacturers and system integrators evolve from simulation models to fully realistic digital twins, opening new possibilities for designing, validating, and communicating factory operations.
