Hi, I am enquiring if it is possible to create a digital twin of a 3-phase induction motor using B&R software? Has anyone every looked at this? Thanks very much in advance.

Hi @c603684 Gerard Patrick,
i am not really sure if i got your requirements.
attached there is a project with PLC + ACOPOS + Induction motor in simulation mode.
Controller simulation is set to ‘Complete’.
You can switch on and run the simulated motor by use of mappCockpit and read back
ICTRL_ISQ_ACT (ParId 214) and ICTRL_ISD_ACT(ParId 219) as well. Even MOTOR_MAGNETIZING_CURR (79) looks reasonable.

Not so bad, eh ?

Hi Christoph,
Thanks very much for your reply. I will download and have a look at that later today.
I am only trying to build up an understanding of how digital twin technology can be used and maybe using it in future for a simple project.
I appreciate your help.
Regards.

Hi Gerard, thanks for feedback. I marked Christoph answer as a solution for you. Feel free to return back with additional questions in the future if you have any.

You’re welcome.
You are not only able to simulate the motor, but also the associated mechanics.
see e.g.
