The posting

Get to know Visual Components

Visual Components is a key technology partner to many of the world’s most ambitious manufacturers, system integrators, and machine builders. Our mission is to help them design, optimise, and deliver production systems faster, more efficiently, and with less risk in an industry evolving at an unprecedented pace. Our software enables the design, testing, and optimisation of production lines with a level of speed and accuracy that is difficult to match, covering factory simulation, virtual commissioning, and offline programming. Manufacturers using Visual Components significantly reduce both time and risk in critical investment decisions. System integrators gain a clear competitive advantage by designing and delivering better systems, faster, and with stronger visualisation to support their sales process. As part of the KUKA Group, one of the world’s leading industrial robotics companies, we operate at a scale and level of impact that few in the industry can match.
