Abstract

A method for reproducing a production process in a virtual environment, has a production facility and a workpiece virtually interacting with each other during the production process. The virtual environment, for the workpiece, is generated out of previously computed three-dimensional data. Scanning an actual production facility is scanned with a scanner. The virtual environment for the actually existing production facility is generated out of three-dimensional data acquired by the scanner.
