Hytrol partners with Emulate3D to create solution simulations

New software allows for faster and easier creation of 3D dynamic models.


Emulate3D has announced a partnership with Hytrol, an industry leader in conveyor belts for material handling companies, to provide simulations for the Hytrol Integration Partner Network.

The software provided by Emulate3D will allow Hytrol to use 3D models from its HyCAD/ HEROES software to quickly create and run simulations. Click here to see an introductory video of the Emulate3D Hytrol Importer.

Delos Fritz, chief information officer at Hytrol, said the partnership will benefit Hytrol integration partners when presenting solutions to end users. Before, the integration partner may have brought in a static model of the solution, he said. But, since the software also offers HD video of the simulations, “Now, they can bring in a working 3D model for those not familiar with conveyor.”

Fritz said that this is a cost effective solution to creating those models, since the software works seamlessly with Hytrol’s current software to create the simulations. “Since we don’t have to redo the work already completed in HyCAD or HEROES, we can provide these faster and easier than ever.”

Integration partners will be able to purchase individual simulations directly from Hytrol, or buy the modeling and simulation software at a significant discount from Emulate3D to use as needed.

“This is a great opportunity for our IPs to provide more value to customers,” Fritz said.
