Technical advances in the industry, the Internet of Things, communication systems, and computers have enabled new modern industrialization methods such as Virtual Commissioning to develop, test, and implement new solutions to the actual industry. These disciplines will continue to develop as progress continues in hardware and software to upgrade the systems of controls of unique robot cells or whole assembly lines. In this thesis, the virtualization of the PTC assembly line is developed based on virtual commissioning methods. The project is carried out in particular on Emulate 3D, VC software designed by Rockwell Automation. The idea is to find out how effectively achieved VC to implement a flexible solution of the assembly line in the virtual world. The logic of the PLCis handled by TwinCat3 and the robot code is written in RAPID on RobotStudio.

Communication notions are also studied as the OPC UA server connection between the TwinCat and RobotStudio to perform a bridge between the data using OPC Expert. These two systems communicating with each other will have to communicate with Emulate3D asit will stand for the virtual world of the emulation.
