Abstract
Digital twin technology represents a revolutionary leap forward in smart manufacturing, fundamentally reshaping traditional methodologies with its transformative capabilities. Digital twins are virtual counterparts that accurately simulate physical assets and processes, acting as a dynamic bridge between the tangible world of machinery and the digital domain of data analytics and simulation. Through the amalgamation of cutting-edge technologies like IoT sensors, AI algorithms, and simulation software, digital twins empower manufacturers with unparalleled insights and control over their operations. A pivotal advantage of digital twins lies in their ability to facilitate predictive maintenance, a cornerstone of contemporary manufacturing practices. Through the ongoing monitoring of equipment performance and condition in real time, manufacturers are able to predict maintenance requirements, proactively resolve problems, and prevent expensive periods of inactivity. This proactive approach represents a notable departure from traditional ...
