LAKE FOREST, Calif. (March 7, 2017)—Schneider Electric announced Hyundai Engineering Co. Ltd. has renewed and expanded its commitment to Schneider Electric with its next-generation process modeling solution SimSci SimCentral. “The choice to go with Schneider Electric was not a decision we took lightly, given our reliance on working with highly advanced process modeling solutions. We chose Schneider Electric’s SimCentral after seeing how quickly and efficiently complex processes could now be modeled,” said Eunho Chung, chief engineer of simulation team at Hyundai Engineering Company. SimCentral offers advanced process simulation embedded within the process modeling application, according to a statement from Schneider Electric. This means that process engineers now have greater access to simulations during every stage of the plant life cycle, including design. This is referred to as the First Born Digital Twin concept, which affords greater access to the simulation during all stages of the plant lifecycle, including design through a single unified simulation platform. “As the first commercially available platform designed to take full advantage of modern software technologies and advanced computational speed, SimCentral delivers far superior performance than the competition. This performance is exceeding the expectations of the next generation of Engineering, Procurement and Construction (EPC) workers, helping to accelerate adoption, usage and time-to-value,” said Tobias Scheele, senior vice president software, industry business, for Schneider Electric. “SimCentral can handle complicated pressure driven phenomena in piping and vacuum lines, so was a great fit for Hyundai Engineering Co., Ltd.”
