Digital Twin Driven Manufacturing Systems: Transforming Industrial Operations through Virtualization and Real-Time Data Integration

Abstract

Digital Twin (DT) technology has emerged as a revolutionary approach to enhance manufacturing systems by bridging the gap between physical assets and their virtual counterparts. By integrating real-time data, advanced analytics, and simulation models, digital twins enable predictive maintenance, process optimization, and enhanced decision-making across production environments. This paper explores the concept of digital twin-driven manufacturing systems, highlighting their architecture, applications, challenges, and future potential. The study emphasizes the transformative impact of digital twins on industrial operations, offering a pathway toward intelligent, flexible, and resilient manufacturing.
