Singapore Exchange-listed in-flight catering service provider SATS has partnered with Dassault Systèmes to enhance its in-flight kitchen operations.
To achieve this, the caterer used Dassault Systèmes’ 3DEXPERIENCE platform on the cloud to connect virtual and physical operations. The creation of a 3D digital twin virtual kitchen experience will offer data-driven analytics for better resource planning.
The company can improve capacity planning and production scheduling, prevent challenges or delays, and enhance productivity by leveraging its expertise to simulate different food production processes.
It can also reduce food wastage in large-batch food production by estimating ingredient usage.
SATS chief digital officer Albert Pozo Hernandez said: “SATS takes a technology-driven, people-led approach to growth, harnessing the power of technology and unleashing the innovation of our people to create new services and improve operational efficiency.
“The use of digital twin technology helps SATS to simulate different production scenarios and cooking processes to optimise resources within our kitchens.
