Digital Twin Applications in Manufacturing Industry: A Case Study from a German Multi-National

Martin Wynn,
Jose Irizar

Abstract: This article examines how digital twins have been used in a multi-national corporation, what technologies have been used, what benefits have been delivered, and the significance of people- and process-related issues in achieving successful implementation. A qualitative, inductive research method is used, based on interviews provided by key personnel involved in three digital twin projects. The article concludes that digital twin projects are likely to involve incremental rather than disruptive change, and that… Show more

“…Such increases in computing power will speed the onward progression of TAS projects. Even though digitalisation and digital twin technology are still in their infancy (Wynn & Irizar, 2023), this is expected to further increase the potential of TAS-based factories and applications. This is due to the increased transformability (e.g.…”
