Digital Twins Market Drivers

Rising Data Collection Points due to IoT

The high growth in internet has created way for many innovative technologies and applications, which as a business generates billions of dollars. Internet connects people from all parts of world through their devices, thereby generating huge amount of data. With addition of sensors to the devices, additional data can be collected which is termed as Internet of Things. With the data collected and digital modelling such as computer-aided design (CAD), a digital twin can be created for billions of the connected devices. Digital Twins allows companies to trace their products throughout their life cycle. In addition to product performance and maintenance it also provides opportunity to the companies to understand customer’s needs and improve customer experience. The companies or vendor can inspect and monitor which part of the product needs replacement considering the safety or operational efficiency, without being in proximity to the products. This helps them in the decision-making process that is associated with physical products.

Becoming an Integral Part of Digital Factory Strategies

With more and more companies getting digitalized, digital twins are becoming a part of the strategy, Companies can replace the current reactive static model, with a dynamic proactive model. The data analyzed in a digital twin is used for prevention of issues rather than diagnosing post an issue. Digital twin technology facilitates virtual prototyping, the digital representation of a product before it is physically created and also simulating the operation of the product in its intended environment. This leads to precise product design at higher quality at a faster pace and low cost. Industrial robots and other complex machinery operate by combining different components and their interactions with other systems and behaviours are extremely difficult to anticipate using the traditional design process. Hence these complex systems need multiple improvements before they reach higher efficiency, which adds cost to the design process. However, using the simulation in a virtual model a superior product can be designed without any additional cost. Moreover, in a digital factory setup, the Industrial IoT, many sensors are integrated to the complex machines and their interactions and behaviours at different operating conditions can be easily tracked. The data not only helps in superior design but also supports predictive maintenance. With multiple benefits like superior product or process design, predictive maintenance and reduced operating cost, the digital factories have started to integrate digital twins in their operations.

Digital Twins Market Challenges
