What are digital twins?
The definition of digital twins varies depending on the field in which they are being used, which underscores how versatile and adaptable they are. Essentially, a digital twin is a virtual representation of a physical object, process or system. This digital doppelganger uses sensor data, simulations and algorithms to monitor, analyze and optimize the condition, activity and performance of the real object.
Using digital twins in the early stages of development
Smart software solutions generate virtual copies of processes in systems – irrespective of whether the products in question or their components already exist or are still in the conceptual phase. During simulation, a digital model can be slowed down, run in real time or sped up. This allows verification, validation and optimization to be carried out continuously from an early stage, long before a physical prototype is required.
Using virtual twins to make tests and decisions more precise
Our digital twin will only model your product or parts of it to start with, but our simulation solutions take things a step further. Not only do we simulate the system itself, but also its environment, closing important control loops in the process. This makes it possible to evaluate logical interdependencies and physical effects in concrete scenarios. Interactions with external components can also be taken into account.
Our solutions enable you to test products at an earlier stage with greater precision, minimize risks and accelerate your development process, for more well-informed decision-making every step of the way.
