Digital Twin: Process simulation & process optimization
A digital twin is a virtual replica or digital representation of a real machine. It mirrors its behavior, condition, and functions (almost) in real-time. For example, to accelerate the commissioning of a machine or automation solution and to make processing operations efficient, digital twin technology provides predictive insights. These digital replicas can be used to optimize production performance and minimize machine downtime.
