These days, with the development of virtual reality technology, it is also being widely used in the industrial sector; this technology is what we refer to as industrial simulation. Industrial simulation, as the name implies, is a virtual version of physical industry. Specifically, it involves converting various modules from the physical industrial sector into data and integrating them into a virtual system, within which every task and process involved in industrial operations is simulated, allowing for various types of interaction with them. Industry is of great significance to enterprises. Applying virtual reality technology to various aspects of industry plays an important role in helping companies improve development efficiency, enhance their capabilities in data collection, analysis, and processing, reduce decision-making errors, and lower business risks. At the same time, the application of virtual reality technology in industry has also brought about a qualitative change in the methods and concepts of industrial design. The significance of industrial simulation is not only evident in industrial operations but also holds great value in employee training. Industrial simulation technology enables internal employees and external customers to engage through interesting physical reproductions, **increasing their enthusiasm and initiative in learning**; when combined with the integration of theory and practice, this approach can **improve the duration and efficiency of theoretical training**. There are many ways in which industrial simulation technology is applied in practice; specifically, the following important applications exist: First, it can be used before production or for work reporting. At the stage when the product’s design drawings are ready, virtual simulation technology can be utilized to realistically simulate all the functional characteristics of the product. It can be used for design scheme discussions and verification, as well as for work reports ； It can be used as a tutorial to guide production and train internal staff, and it can also replace physical samples for duration surveys, allowing for flexible adjustments based on customer feedback. II. Exhibitions, websites, or product promotion: At exhibition sites where information on similar products is abundant and the environment is noisy, products are displayed alongside their physical counterparts; on online media, rich information can be presented conveniently through a single window. The simulated demonstrations of dynamic simulation are not only eye-catching but can also serve as a tool for promoting products in business presentations, enabling more comprehensive product introductions and showcasing details, functions, operations, and usage that physical products cannot display. III. Market Promotion: As a tool for market promotion and publicity. The intuitive form of content is simpler and more straightforward than traditional marketing methods such as verbal explanations, graphic information, and physical samples, reducing the need for communication between marketers and customers ； The distribution of simulation program files over the network is also simpler, allowing them to be easily shown to customers anywhere, thus narrowing the distance between the company and its clients. In summary, the maturity of industrial simulation technology has made industrial operations more intuitive, eliminating the drawbacks of traditional display methods in terms of promotion, and its significance for industrial design is immeasurable.
