Beyond viewers.
Beyond platforms.
A viewer shows you the model. A platform asks you to move into it. UDiTH connects what you already run — one navigation experience across engineering, construction and operations.
Your plant data isn't missing. It's scattered.
Industrial organizations run on disconnected systems — model viewers, engineering databases, planning tools, document management, maintenance systems and internal applications. They rarely communicate naturally: data silos, duplicate workflows, limited visibility.
Two answers are usually on the table, and both come at a cost. A viewer is quick to deploy but stops at geometry. A digital twin platform is comprehensive but wants your data inside it. UDiTH introduces a third category: an integration layer that leaves your systems where they are.
Three approaches
The pure 3D viewer
Lightweight, fast to roll out, good at what it was built for: showing geometry from heterogeneous sources to a wide audience.
The model is an island. No P&ID, no documents in context, no engineering database behind the object you just clicked. Every question that isn't geometric leaves the tool.
The digital twin platform
Broad functional scope — documents, P&ID, engineering data — delivered as one environment with its own data model.
Scope comes with migration. Data moves in, deployment gets heavy, and the platform vendor's roadmap becomes yours. Your existing IT landscape adapts to the tool, not the other way round.
UDiTH — the Digital Twin Hub
A new category: instead of replacing those systems, UDiTH connects them into one navigation experience across the lifecycle.
Data is federated where it lives. Model, P&ID, laserscan, drawings and documents share one context — vendor-neutral, no migration, lightweight to deploy, open to your own customizations.
What actually separates them
Where the data lives
Viewers hold a converted model. Platforms hold a migrated copy. UDiTH reads the source system and leaves ownership untouched.
How far a click travels
Cross-system navigation means one object leads to its P&ID, its documents, its attributes and its maintenance record without changing tools.
What counts as the twin
Not just 3D: laserscan meshes, P&ID, 2D–3D links, sketches and projected drawings or photos all belong in the same navigable context.
Who owns the roadmap
Vendor-neutral integration and an open framework mean the hub adapts to your landscape — including customizations you specify.
What deployment costs
Viewers are light and platforms are heavy. UDiTH keeps viewer-class deployment while carrying platform-class scope.
Who it serves
One experience for engineering, construction and operations, rather than a separate tool and a separate truth per phase.
