As a virtual model of a process, plant, product or service, for instance, the digital twin links the real and virtual worlds. This link between the two worlds makes it possible to analyze data and monitor systems.
The digital twin accompanies your production system from the initial idea through to the final closure of the factory. During the engineering phase, the digital twin is created parallel to the production system, primarily supported by the digital factory methods and processes. During the operating phase, the Digital Twin works in parallel with the production system, networked vertically and horizontally, based on tools and methods of Industry 4.0.
