13th Colloquium on Mobile Hydraulics
Dr. Benedikt Müller presents a simulation solution for mobile machines at the 13th Mobile Hydraulics Colloquium
In the age of Industry 4.0, mobile machines are becoming increasingly intelligent and connected. In this context, Fluidon will be presenting simulation solutions at the 13th Mobile Hydraulics Colloquium that cover the entire life cycle of mobile machines – from development to commissioning, training, condition monitoring and predictive maintenance.
A demonstrator shows an aerial work platform in the virtual development environment Fluidon Cube. The real-time simulation with 3D visualisation follows the instructions given by the visitor using the real joysticks or calculated by the path control in automatic mode. Visitors are encouraged to try it out for themselves: anyone can test their own operating skills or see for themselves the advantages of the aerial work platform's easy control in automatic mode.

Key topics
- Modular approach and co-simulation: The simulation models are realised modularly from functional mock-up units (FMUs), which simplifies administration and reuse. This approach simplifies the coupling of different simulation environments and facilitates the comparison of alternative concepts, e.g. by exchanging hydraulic and electrical drive modules.
- Real-time and 3D visualisation: The real-time capability of the models supports software-in-the-loop (SiL) and hardware-in-the-loop (HiL) applications. The 3D visualisation in Cube improves communication between experts and facilitates tests of human-machine interfaces.
- Virtual sensors and edge simulation: Model-based virtual sensors replace expensive measurement technology and enable condition monitoring. The Cube-RT Edge Simulator runs on mobile machines and continuously provides data for predictive maintenance.
