Success Stories
Roche Pharma AG leveraged the FRAMENCE Digital Twin Platform to digitize construction progress at their facility in Grenzach-Wyhlen, Germany. By capturing 360° panoramas and comparing as-built conditions with as-planned BIM models, Roche could identify structural discrepancies early, monitor site development in real-time, and document every phase accurately. This photorealistic digital approach enabled precise facility management, improved alignment between design and execution, and supported long-term asset tracking. The result: a more efficient, transparent, and data-driven construction oversight process that aligns with Roche’s strategic digitization goals.
The Zurich University of Applied Sciences (ZHAW) transformed its new Food Campus into a fully interactive learning and research environment using the FRAMENCE Digital Twin Platform. By digitally replicating the building and machinery with photorealistic precision, ZHAW linked user manuals, safety protocols, and sensor data directly to assets via clickable POIs. Students, staff, and researchers can now access critical information instantly, train remotely, and navigate facilities more effectively. The integration of live data and VR-ready features has positioned the platform as a vital part of ZHAW’s digitalization strategy—enhancing safety, reducing costs, and empowering innovation in food technology education.
Follmann Chemie Group transformed its Technology and Knowledge Center (TKC) into a modern, digital-ready showcase using the FRAMENCE Digital Twin Platform. By creating a photorealistic twin of the facility, the company enabled staff across departments to easily access embedded instructions, safety information, maintenance data, and facility navigation tools—all visually linked to assets. The platform supported interactive room planning, training scenarios, and building automation tasks, making everyday operations more intuitive, even for non-technical users. Integrated 3D furniture models and virtual walkthroughs further enhanced space utilization and planning. As a result, FRAMENCE became a central pillar in Follmann’s long-term digitization strategy.
FRAPORT AG launched a pilot project using the FRAMENCE Digital Twin Platform to document and manage renovation plans at Frankfurt Airport’s Terminal 1B. The goal was to capture a photorealistic, dimensionally accurate view of the check-in area before major construction began. Using only a fisheye lens and tripod, the FRAPORT team generated high-resolution panoramas, which were automatically converted into a digital twin by FRAMENCE. Points of Information (POIs) were added to embed documents, asset data, and links. The result: seamless synchronization between 3D planning and on-site reality, enabling real-time updates, improved collaboration, and informed decisions during ongoing infrastructure development.
🔧 Qlar (formerly Schenck Process): Virtual Machine Testing & Global Training with Digital Twins
Qlar, a global leader in mechanical engineering, revolutionized its Factory Acceptance Testing (FAT) and training operations using the FRAMENCE Digital Twin Platform. Faced with pandemic-related travel restrictions, Qlar built a photorealistic digital replica of its Darmstadt test center, embedding 3D models, live streams, dashboards, and disassembly features directly into the twin. This allowed remote clients to experience tests in real time, inspect internal components virtually, and reduce travel and staffing costs. The twin also became a powerful training tool across global sites and a walk-in VR showroom for trade fairs. The result: increased FAT efficiency, improved customer experience, and accelerated international knowledge transfer—all from a single immersive platform.
