ZAP-industrial automation and control assistant

Example

Mixed-signal analysis and timing verification in circuit design.

Scenario

When designing a PLC (Programmable Logic Controller) system for a factory, engineers can use ZAP’s simulation tools to verify how electrical signals and timing will behave under various conditions. For example, ensuring that signals from multiple sensors interact correctly before final deployment in an automated assembly line.

Example

Choosing appropriate industrial sensors based on technical specifications and availability.

Scenario

A company designing a safety system for an oil refinery uses ZAP to evaluate temperature sensors that comply with IEC safety standards. ZAP suggests sensors based on their precision, cost, and certification, streamlining the decision-making process.

Example

Creating a bill of materials (BOM) and technical specifications for an automation system.

Scenario

When an engineering team finalizes the design for a robotic arm control system, ZAP automatically generates all the required documentation, including assembly notes, the BOM, and datasheets. This ensures all the necessary information is available for procurement and compliance.
