An Understanding of Principles, Enhancers, and Obstacles

Comprehensive reference exploring the benefits and implementation of digital twins in industrial production and manufacturing

Digital Twins in Industrial Production and Smart Manufacturing provides an overview of digital twin theoretical concepts, techniques, and recent trends used to meet the requirements and challenges of industrial production and smart manufacturing. The text describes how to achieve industrial excellence through virtual factory simulation and digital modeling innovations for next-generation manufacturing system design. The contributing authors address the many possible technical advantages of major Industry 5.0 technological advancements, using illustrations to aid readers in practical implementation of concepts, along with existing scenarios, potential research gaps, adoption difficulties, case studies, and future research objectives.

The text also presents many applications and use cases of Industry 5.0 and digital twins in a variety of industries, including the aerospace industry, pharmaceutical manufacturing and biotech, augmented reality, virtual reality, edge computing and blockchain-based Internet of Things (IoT), cobots, intelligent logistics and supply chain management, and more.

  • Edited by a group of highly qualified academics with significant experience in the field, Digital Twins in Industrial Production and Smart Manufacturing covers additional topics such as:
  • Hyper-automation technology, including specialized workflow procedures and particular sectors of solicitations linked to hyper-automation
  • Digital twins in the context of smart cities, with attempts to draw comparisons with the use of digital twins in industrial IoT
  • Virtual factories based on digital twins and corresponding architecture to facilitate modeling, simulation, and assessment of manufacturing systems
  • Cognitive, interactive, and standardization aspects of digital twins, and the proper implementation of digital twin technology for safety critical systems

 Digital Twins in Industrial Production and Smart Manufacturing is a must-have reference for researchers, scholars, and professionals in fields related to digital twins in industrial production and manufacturing. It is also suitable as a hands-on resource for students interested in the fields of digital twins and smart manufacturing.
