Adding connectivity to the Digital Twin
Digital twins are digital models of products and processes that are paired to the physical world provide the basis for a wide range of new technical and commercial opportunities. Through a constant exchange and analysis of information between physical products and their digital twins, production, supply chain and maintenance processes can be better planned and automated.
