[#1]

RailWorks 25.0.1 is now available (19 March 2025). This version of RailWorks is intended for use with FlexSim 2025.

All versions can be found in the Downloads section of your FlexSim account on the 3rd party modules tab. Please do not hesitate to report any bugs, usability improvements and feature requests to developmentbrflexsim@flexsbr.com.br.

Rail Network: New feature in RailWorks

The Rail Network feature provides users with an intuitive and efficient way to design and connect railway systems. With a user-friendly interface, this tool enables seamless track placement, automatic node linking, and real-time validation to ensure smooth rail operations. Users can quickly define routes, junctions, and stations while leveraging smart snapping and alignment aids to simplify complex track layouts.

This feature is designed for both beginners and advanced users, offering powerful tools to build scalable and efficient rail networks with minimal effort.

New Speed Table: New feature in RailWorks

Offering more speed possibilities to configurate all the movement parameters, the new speed table covers all movement speeds, acceleration and deceleration parameters, making the model more plausible and adherent to the real world process.

About Railworks

The FlexSim Brazil RailWorks module consists of premade custom objects, designed to represent a real environment for the Rail problem modeling, with less configuration. Our approach is to unite 3D modeling with the Process Flow functionality, allowing object configuration and visualization through the native 3D FlexSim solution, and the rail system events to be triggered by the Process Flow, using not only defaults FlexSim Process Flow activities, but also new ones developed by our team.
