CenterLine Case Study: Robotic Work Cell Simulation with DELMIA
Case study showing how CenterLine (Windsor) Limited used DELMIA Robotics on the 3DEXPERIENCE platform to simulate robotic work cells before physical deployment.
CenterLine, a Canadian automation and welding systems provider, implemented DELMIA Robotics to create digital models of products, processes, and factory layouts. The solution enabled offline programming, robot path validation, material flow analysis, and ergonomic checks. Results included up to 90% fewer tooling issues, 75% less floor programming time, and elimination of physical robot repositioning after installation.
Virtual simulation of every robotic work cell reduced tooling issues and rework by up to 90%
Offline programming cut floor programming time by up to 75% and eliminated post-install robot moves
Single source of truth on 3DEXPERIENCE platform enabled CAD data reuse across projects and vendors
Arc welding tool paths generated automatically from seam geometry improved design-to-tooling iterations
Digital twin and virtual commissioning identified as next steps for systemic change impact analysis
