Abstract

Digital Twins are a key component of Industry 4.0. They are a digital representation of a real-world entity containing both the structure and the dynamics of its real-world counterpart. The use of Digital Twins appears to offer a powerful an compelling application for production processes. A Self-configurable and self-adjustable Digital Twin is developed for the Greenfield production process of FOCUS-ON. FOCUS-ON expects a fast growth in order demand and needs to adjust their production line accordingly. A Digital Twin is developed according to the 5C architecture. The Digital Twin proposes adjustments to the production line to keep up with the increasing order demand.
