Frequently Asked Questions

Do you have a question that has not been answered here? Sign up with our community forum to ask technical questions, receive general announcements and reply to posts. You can also contact our team directly for more information.

Do I need to install anything?

ProtoTwin Motion and Simulate do not require you to install anything. The software runs entirely inside your web browser. Updates to the software are instantly available and automatic. If you want to connect to industrial PLCs or Python for virtual commissioning, co-simulation or machine learning, you will need to install ProtoTwin Connect. This is required since web browsers restrict access to the local network for security reasons.

What are the hardware requirements?

Real-time simulation can be computationally demanding. Faster hardware will allow you to simulate larger models in real-time. ProtoTwin supports all brands of CPUs and GPUs, including Intel, AMD, ARM processors. Please see the documentation for further details.

How does performance compare to other software products?

Even though ProtoTwin Simulate runs entirely inside your web browser, we exceed the performance of most native simulation software applications, including some AAA native game engines. ProtoTwin can handle over 100,000 scripted objects and over 10,000 dynamic rigid bodies in real-time on modern hardware.

Where can I learn how to use the software?

The best place to start is by going through the tutorials, which will cover all the fundamental concepts. You can be productive in ProtoTwin after just a few minutes. We've designed the software to be simple, intuitive and powerful. You may also ask our AI assistant Torq for help and general guidance.

What programming language do you use for scripting?

TypeScript is used to create scripted components and tools inside the integrated script editor. IntelliSense and AI code auto-completion are supported, with all API functions documented. Our AI assistant Torq can also create scripted components for you to control industrial machines and robots.

Are educational licenses available?

Yes. ProtoTwin offers free licenses to schools, colleges and universities.

What level of support is included?

Our plans include support for any issues or bugs that you may come across. Our AI assistant Torq can provide fast answers to common questions. For issues that Torq can't resolve, please ask a question on the community form or contact us directly. We can advise on best practices and can point you in the right direction if you're unsure about how to model a certain aspect of your machine.

How can I control my machine?

Machines can be controlled using either the TypeScript API, the integrated SoftPLC, or by connecting ProtoTwin Connect to an external PLC.

Can ProtoTwin simulate robots?

Yes. ProtoTwin Simulate supports an integrated robot controller that can solve the inverse kinematics for any industrial robot. You can program robots easily through the UI, or create more advanced scripted programs. You can also use our AI assistant Torq to help create scripted robot programs. ProtoTwin Connect includes a high-performance Python client, allowing you to train machine learning models for controling robots using reinforcement learning.

What operating systems are supported?

You can run ProtoTwin Motion and Simulate on all major operating systems, including Windows, Mac OSX and Linux. You can install ProtoTwin Connect on Windows (x64 and arm64), MacOS (apple silicon) and Linux (x64).

How can I report an issue?

Please report any issues or bugs that you may come across on our community forum. For all other enquiries, you can contact us directly.
