Today, a digital twin is much more than a simple model &#8211; we are talking about evolving digital profiles based on historical and current behavior of physical objects, systems or processes that help optimize a company&#8217;s business performance. We have summarized ten benefits for you in compact form:  <\/p>\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\" type=\"1\"><li>Digital twins change and accelerate the entire engineering process.<\/li><li>They are used to optimize manufacturing processes and already enable the economical production of the smallest batch sizes down to a quantity of 1.<\/li><li>The digital twin is perfectly suited for condition monitoring in real time. This makes predictive maintenance of equipment possible. <\/li><li>Forecasts of requirements, developments and inventories for different business areas become possible.<\/li><li>With a digital twin, risk-free simulations can be carried out without interfering with and thus endangering operational business.<\/li><li>The behavior of new products or the operation of new processes can be tested virtually under real conditions.<\/li><li>Digital twins radically change the value chain. They make operations more efficient and thus open up new growth opportunities. <\/li><li>The digital twin supports an increased level of service. Building new, digital business models becomes possible and simplified. <\/li><li>Digital twins ensure traceability of the entire life cycle of products, machines or parts via digital threads.<\/li><li>User interfaces prepare and visualize the relevant data for specific target groups. Each department thus has access to all important data in real time &#8211; structured and clearly arranged. <\/li><\/ol>\n<p>Digital twins are the decisive prerequisite for successfully implementing digitization in the company and opening up new business areas. Before you can use a digital twin, you must implement an intelligent, networked development process. <\/p>\n\n<p>We advise you to proceed step by step. Don&#8217;t digitize an entire ecosystem right away. Start with a digital twin of one part of your company and build on it.  <\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Don&#8217;t miss out on: <\/strong><\/h2>\n\n<p>PhD Summer weeks start June 15, 2020.
