Digital layout & 3D, VR tour

Solution overview

We design and visualize production and logistics layout in 2D, 3D and Virtual Reality. Our digital layout solution enables companies to test different spatial arrangement concepts, optimize material flows, and validace ergonomic aspects before implementation. The VR tour allows stakeholders to experience and evaluate layouts interactively, improving decision-making and communication across departments. The target users are industrial engineers, production planners, HSE, operational managers and plant managers.

Key features

Integration of engineering expertise with digital tools, real-world process validation through 3D layout, customized automation without complex IT infrastructure, and holistic approach linking process, data, and spatial design for measurable performance improvement. VR environments for process validation and ergonomics validation before implementation is suitable for later employee training and safety simulations.

Integration and adaptability in manufacturing environments

Our solution is designed for integration into existing manufacturing and administrative environments. It can be connected with common systems such as ERP, MES, and WMS, as well as standard industrial equipment and data sources (PLC, sensors, IoT). Thanks to modular architecture, each component (process analysis, data visualization, layout or VR) can be implemented independently or as part of a comprehensive solution. The service is highly customizable to specific manufacturing requirements, enabling adaptation to different production types, layouts, and company sizes. Implementation requires minimal IT intervention and provides quick scalability from pilot projects to full-scale deployment.

Implementation support and training for manufacturers

We provide full support thoughout the implementation - our services include process audits and integration planning. During deployment, we guide users through testing, validation, and performance evaluation to align the solution with real operational needs. Post-implementation phases to ensure a smooth transition and long-term value are supported by our on-site or remote tecnical assistance and continuous system optimization. To maximize benefits, we offer comprehensive training programs for engineers, operators, and managers, including interactive VR training modules for process simulation, safety, and ergonomics. Customers also gain access to digital manuals, knowledge bases, and ongoing expert support for continuous improvement.

Sustainability, compliance and certifications in the EU

Voluntarily compliant with National Innovation Stratedy requirements (cybersecurity). Solution fully aligns with Czech legislation NV 361/2007 Sb. that determine conditions for occupational health and safety.

Use cases

Example of successful implementation of solution in manufacturing company.

Yanfeng Automotive Interior Systems Czechia, s.r.o. - our solution supports the entire Quality Department through digital process management tools that automate data collection, reporting, visualization in Power BI, enabling a real-time performance tracking, root-cause analysis and action plan measures management. As a part of continous improvement, we designed a digital production layout to optimize the "first piece approval" process, reducing lead time nad improving workflow efficiency. In addition we trained employees in VR training in safety, helping to gain practical safety experience in a controlled virtual environment.

Case studies or testimonials showcasing the impact of the solution on real-world operations.

"NEVEON Czech Republic spol. s r.o. - we supported the foam production plant in optimizing material flow and workstation ergonomics. Using process analysis, digital layout design, and simulation, we reduced internal transport distances by 25% and increased packaging efficiency by 15%. A digital twin of the production area allows continuous evaluation of capacity utilization and improvement scenarios. HASELMEIER s.r.o. - we developed a complete digital factory layout concept for a new 3,000 m² production hall, including logistics and assembly simulation. The design reduced internal transport routes by 30% and improved material traceability through digital planning and flow optimization. KION Group - Implementation of data-driven performance dashboards and process standardization across assembly lines. Real-time Power BI reports enabled supervisors to monitor productivity and downtime, leading to a 10% improvement in line balance efficiency and a significant reduction in reporting time."

ROI & Costs

Expected return on investment (ROI)

The expected return on investment (ROI) for manufacturing companies adopting our solution typically ranges between 6 and 18 months, depending on the project scope and maturity of existing systems. Savings are achieved through productivity gains, process standardization, reduced waste, and improved resource utilization. Digital dashboards and process automation lower administrative workload, while VR-based validation minimize rework and downtime. Digital layout generates savings in logistics, material flow and aisles workflow. Additional ROI is generated through enhanced employee skills, safety, and faster decision-making enabled by real-time data insights. Overall, companies experience efficiency improvements of 10–30% and measurable cost reductions across production and logistics operations.

Cost overview: implementation and ongoing expenses

The initial costs depend on the project’s scope and selected modules but are structured to ensure scalability and affordability. Typical implementation costs include process analysis, digital setup, system integration, and optional layout or VR environment development. Projects usually start from €5,000 to €50,000, depending on company size and customization needs. Ongoing expenses are limited to software licenses, data hosting, and periodic updates, typically representing less than 10% of the initial investment per year. Training and continuous support are included in service packages to ensure long-term value and user adoption. This flexible, modular approach allows companies to start with smaller pilot projects and expand as measurable benefits are achieved.
