| Industrial metaverse transforms the B2B worldigus Builds digital twins of customer applications in its own iguverse and demonstrates the opportunities for sales and engineering in the industrial metaverse.
By: igus® Singapore Pte Ltd At METS Trade 2023 and boot Düsseldorf 2024, visitors explored H+B technics' products in the iguverse using VR headsets. As avatars in a virtual showroom, they interacted with digital twins of yachts and lift systems—opening hatches, folding decks, and resizing models. The immersive experience impressed attendees and helped reduce trade show costs by replacing physical models with flexible 3D content. By simply sending 3D product data, companies like H+B technics can create interactive digital twins in igus's industrial metaverse, the iguverse. This platform enables immersive product demos and even virtual engineering— igus envisions global teams collaborating in VR to design and simulate machines—eliminating travel, emails, and static drawings. With 1:1 scale models and real-time interaction, design flaws can be spotted early. Projects like Bell's helicopter show VR can cut development time by 90%, while supporting sustainability across the entire product lifecycle. The iguverse offers a powerful entry point into the metaverse for SMEs, enabling collaboration and innovation without heavy investment. With half of German companies still struggling with digitalisation, igus's open B2B platform encourages experimentation and helps close the gap in global competitiveness.
