The developed tool, has been applied in VOLVO, utilizing an offline production line, similar to the actual one. The perception time of the model has been reduced. Notably, more aspects of the model have been taken into consideration compared to the conventional simulation representation currently used. Finally, collaborative design of the simulation model has been rendered feasible, as a team of production managers can group and discuss on the same 3D model by making annotations. 

With the provision of the right tools, every person can become part of a manufacturing system, including people with disabilities. These people are eager to work and feel productive which can affect global industry very positively.
