10 Ways Digital Twin Software Is Transforming Industry 4.0

Digitization is helping businesses develop new products and exploit opportunities in their marketplaces in so many different ways. It’s proving especially useful for organizations who want to get their concepts to market as quickly and cost-effectively as possible, without compromising on quality or testing.

Digital twin technology is one of the main ways in which product development can be expedited – and it’s no surprise that its global market size is predicted to rise from under $18 billion in 2024 to as much as $260 billion by 2032. This blog explores how Digital Twin technology works, how it’s influencing Industry 4.0, and how it can make a real practical difference to your development processes.

What is Digital Twin technology?

Digital twin technology refers to replications of physical items or assets in a virtual environment. Its features, functionality and capabilities can be simulated in real time, based on data collected from embedded IoT sensors in the real product. This can help make development, testing and maintenance a faster and more cost-effective exercise than it would be using physical products themselves.

Digital twins have gained real traction in recent years, across a variety of use cases. For example, fashion retailers have created virtual versions of clothing items that they sell, so that online shoppers can accurately assess fit and size on their own bodies before they commit to a purchase. In the energy sector, digital twins of wind farms combined with predictive analytics are enabling proactive maintenance and balancing of energy output. And automotive businesses can simulate and test new engine designs using digital twins, leveraging real-time monitoring to reduce the downtime of maintenance.
