A digital twin is essentially a computer program that uses real world data to offer simulations that will in turn inform you how a product or process will perform in real-life environment.
But the digital twin isn’t really a product you can buy and plug in into your system.
In reality, it’s a custom-developed program that you feed data from the physical world into, and by doing so you tap into a new level of insight without a significant investment.
With digital twin technology, companies can develop and implement changes into products virtually before developing the physical product that fully complies with the consumer requirements.
Modelling with a digital twin opens the opportunity to pinpoint bottlenecks in complex and interconnected systems and to even predict the impediments and risks way ahead of time. In other words, companies are able to both achieve transparency at every moment in time and anticipate the future. This essentially means they are getting full control over the entire system – just think about the opportunities it brings to the business and your IT team.

A digital twin is essentially a custom-developed computer program that uses real world data to offer simulations that will in turn inform you how a product or process will perform in real-life environment.
As digital twin allows you to virtually replicate and oversee the performance of an object be it a single piece of equipment or complex multi-facet installations without significant investment into a physical asset, it offers multiple benefits:
And many more.
One example is Boeing company, which uses a virtual replication of physical airplane parts and simulates their performance throughout the lifecycle of the airframe.
The digital twin program allows to create a virtual three-dimensional model that can go through a simulated lifecycle of the environments and conditions that the real asset will experience. The lifecycle is created by digitally threading together bits of data about that component’s in-service product lifecycle.
Businesses from various industries, where developing a physical product is costly are utilising digital twin technology. Examples include manufacturing, automotive, space, healthcare, utilities, aerospace, and others,
The extent to which those companies use digital twins, however, can vary.
