The industrial sector was one of the first to adopt digital transformation to improve its efficiency and competitiveness. In a world where digitalisation is crucial for economic development, these companies are using advanced technologies to optimise their processes and maintain their position in the global market.
The digitalisation of the industrial workplace is not a passing fad, but a necessary evolution. According to the OECD, innovation is responsible for approximately 60% of global economic growth, which highlights the importance of adopting new technologies for business development and sustainability.
Airbus and Fagor are leading examples of this digital transformation. Both companies have implemented innovative Virtual Cable solutions to virtualise their workstations and maximise their benefits.
“At Virtual Cable we understand the unique challenges that the industrial sector faces on its journey towards digitalisation,” says Felix Casado, CEO of Virtual Cable. “We are very proud to collaborate with industrial leaders such as Airbus and Fagor. These use cases demonstrate how our digital workplace solutions can significantly transform and improve work environments, contributing to greater safety, efficiency and cost reduction.”
UDS Corporate, a flexible and secure VDI technology for the industry
Airbus Defence and Space, one of Europe’s leading aerospace companies, faced a challenge in its engineering departments. Its IT equipment was designed for administrative tasks, but was not suitable for complex projects such as numerical analysis and embedded software. The solution had to comply with strict safety standards, including regulations from NATO and the European Aviation Safety Agency.

To solve this problem, Airbus decided not to install engineering software on each physical computer. Instead, they created a flexible and cost-effective platform using a Linux and Windows desktop virtualization solution in DaaS (Desktops as a Service) model with UDS Corporate, a solution from Virtual Cable.
“UDS Corporate has proven to be an efficient solution for providing Airbus engineers with a flexible and secure working environment, tailored to the specific needs of each project. We have been impressed by the significant cost reduction we have achieved,” explains José Bernardo Alós, Head of Computing & Comm. Development and Data Management at Airbus Defence and Space.
