Digital Twin & Simulation

Types of Twin

Choose the right level of detail

Asset twin

A single machine or piece of equipment with its live condition, history and performance.

Line or process twin

A production line or process with material flow, cycle times and dependencies between stations.

Plant twin

A full site combining assets, lines, utilities and people for operational planning.

Supply chain twin

Plants, warehouses and transport linked to test scenarios across the wider network.

Use Cases

Throughput and bottlenecks

Identify constraints and test layout, staffing or scheduling changes before implementing them.

Change validation

Simulate new products, recipes or equipment changes to reduce risk at launch.

Energy optimisation

Model energy use across assets and shifts to find savings without affecting output.

Operator training

Train staff on realistic scenarios without disrupting live production.

Scenario planning

Test demand changes, outages and supply disruptions to prepare response plans.

Live operations view

A 3D or schematic view of the plant, updated with real-time data from the IIoT platform.

How We Build It

Define the question

We start from the decision the twin must support, which determines scope and level of detail.

Connect live data

The twin is connected to machine, production and business data through the IIoT platform.

Model and calibrate

Physical, statistical or simulation models are built and calibrated against actual performance.

Simulate and recommend

Scenarios are run and results are presented as clear recommendations for operations teams.

Keep it in sync

Data pipelines and models are maintained so the twin stays accurate as the plant changes.

Tell us the decision you need to make. We will scope a twin that answers it with your own data.
