The trend for "digital twin" has been on a steady rise and shows no signs of slowing down. With the increasing demand for smart factories, manufacturers are realizing the importance of having a digital representation of their physical assets. This technology enables manufacturers to monitor and optimize their production processes in real-time, leading to increased efficiency, reduced costs, and improved quality. It is no longer a question of whether or not to implement digital twin technology, but rather how quickly and effectively it can be implemented. In the competitive world of manufacturing, having a digital twin is now considered table stakes for staying ahead of the game.
