Driving Digital Transformation of Smart Factory with Digital Twin Technology
This Intel white paper explains how digital twin technology drives smart factory transformation. A digital twin creates a virtual replica of physical assets, processes, or systems, enabling real-time monitoring, simulation, and predictive insights. Five maturity levels exist: descriptive, informative, predictive, comprehensive, and autonomous twins, with the latter capable of self-optimization. Benefits include predictive maintenance, efficiency gains, and reduced downtime. Use cases span manufacturing, automotive, healthcare, disaster management, and smart cities. Powered by Intel processors, Sophic Automation’s solutions integrate IoT, AI, and automation, delivering 30% OLE and 15–20% OEE improvements while enabling lights-out factories.
