“Digital twin” – an award-winning achievement

The so-called digital twin connects physical industrial products with the digital world. Both the products to be manufactured and the machines on which they are produced are individually known from their lifecycle record and able to provide information on their origin, characteristics and capabilities. Enormous process improvements can thus be initiated in the “Smart Factory” and value-added potential unlocked.
