Is your digital twin comprehensive enough?

In this environment, the term “digital twin” is used everywhere—but huge disparities exist in implementation scope, capabilities, and delivered value to companies who are designing and manufacturing electronic products. Siemens provides what industry analysts and customers recognise as the most comprehensive digital twin solution available, delivering transformative results across industries.

Siemens comprehensive digital twin encompasses all cross-domain models and data—digital threads that flow from mechanical, and electrical, semiconductor, and systems design to software code, bills-of-materials, bills-of-process and more. This holistic approach creates an unparalleled virtual representation matching the exact physical form, functions, and behaviour of products and their configurations.

The Continuous Optimisation Advantage

A Harvard Business Review analysis of industrial digital transformation identified closed-loop optimisation as the single most valuable capability in manufacturing digitalisation. Siemens comprehensive digital twin isn’t limited to a few applications or a part of the product lifecycle; instead, it delivers a seamlessly connected ecosystem spanning design through operation. This approach offers a precise virtual representation of the product or process flow configurations. The data then flows across the product and process lifecycle for simulating, predicting, and optimising the product and its production. Using the comprehensive digital twin, customers also can connect real-world operational data back into design and manufacturing over the lifetime of the product. This provides a closed-loop system that actively drives continuous improvement through integrated feedback.
