Digital Twin - The Industrie 4.0 Backbone
How the virtual world changes reality
Digital images of reality are becoming increasingly important: whether as the passive product passes in the form of digital shadows or is enriched with simulation capability as a Digital Twin - these are absolute added values for the industry, from internal processes such as production planning and quality assurance to new digital value-added customer services. Digital Twins form the basis for this. The wide range of possible applications requires the necessary foresight to implement such projects. Many departments are involved, a wide variety of systems must interact, and, finally, clean data management and data governance are indispensable. We support you from the initial planning phase of a suitable system architecture through to implementation.
Benefits for You as a Manufacturing Company
Increase granularity of your data
Digital Twins break with existing PLM (Product Lifecycle Management) logic. Products and their data are collected and made usable on a per-unit basis. Higher granularity means improved transparency.
Using collected data profitably
Digital Twins form the basis for data ecosystems like Manufacturing-X. Here, for the first time, the foundations are being laid for offering and monetizing your own data in a targeted manner.
Increase customer individuality
Digital Twins enable targeted and individual customer support: Knowing exactly which variant of a product your customer uses also has advantages for your company after the sale.
Improve product quality
Data analyses are created on a unit-by-unit basis - so you discover potential for improvement in your production system and use the granularity for quality analyses.
Design the supply chain transparent
What if not only you, but also your supply chain works with Digital Twins? In this current age, this is an advantage for more transparency in logistics and procurement processes.
Set up production sustainably
Sustainability and growth must be thought of together. Optimize the ecological footprint of your products and communicate this transparently via a CO2 product passport.
Digital Twin - 5 Challenges from Your Daily Business
Our Services for Your Success
-
Individual strategy
No production is identical - we analyze your situation individually and use our experience to shape the path to the digital data future together with you. From our hardware partners for data acquisition to our own integration experience and our research partners in the field of artificial intelligence. We develop the right and individual project approach to fit your use cases.
-
State of the art data infrastructure
We manage the new flood of data together with you. We know how to build modern data infrastructures and help you not only collect data, but also make it usable. This begins with orderly governance and leads to a stable and high-performance system environment. At the same time, we support you in the appropriate preparation and visualization of your data to make it available for business decisions.
-
Connectivity in the ecosystem
Our roots can be found in integration. Digital Twins allow you to integrate your processes with partners across company boundaries. We develop the appropriate interfaces (API) based on industry standards, with which you can put your own data in the spotlight to either leverage efficiency potentials together with third parties or develop new digital services. Your data will remain an untapped treasure without sufficient connectivity to partner and customer systems, your data will remain an untapped treasure.
