Where testing is a bottleneck, this also increases overall throughput of the production line. With this data,” Raithel said, “we learn not just which parts are defective but the why, the source of the defect. We then carry this information back to the product line and further improve quality. “Of And the savings don’t stop here.

The majority of machine parts in production, such as robot arms or conveyor belts, do not reach their maximum service life and are discarded prematurely. Once the physical second-hand line has been built, the DS will evolve into a Digital Twin (DT). So, the DT is the virtual image of a real system, such as the production line.
