How Digital Twins are Completely Transforming Manufacturing Seebo Blog

With the rapid pace of technological growth, it's not always easy to imagine where digital transformation is taking the manufacturing sector, but one good way of doing this is to take a closer look at the "Digital Twin" concept within the industrial Internet of Things (IoT). As IoT connectivity provides the manufacturing sector with an increasing number of ways to access sensor-driven data locked in industrial machines and equipment, the need for data analysis, management, and control methods has also become more crucial. The amount of data collected from monitoring a smart factory is enormous, but if that data isn't aggregated and organized in a way that can support the decision-making process, then it's of no use. One method that's proving to be invaluable to engineering and customer service teams that are looking to leverage collected data is that of the "Digital Twin". Digital Twin is a virtual representation that matches the physical attributes of a "real world" factory, production line, product or component in real time, through the use of sensors, cameras, and other data collection techniques.
