Check out how BMW adopts digital scanning for ultimate virtual planning
Jun 29, 2022
By early 2023, the BMW Group will have a digital scan of every one of its vehicle plants worldwide. In this way, the company is systematically merging the real and virtual worlds and tapping into the potential for highly efficient planning of future plant structures and production facilities.
Alongside data science and artificial intelligence, virtual planning is a core element of digitalization within the strategic vision of BMW production, the BMW iFACTORY. The aim is to make planning and simulation of all processes and the entire production system 100% virtual.
