A short technical review on Dgital Twins in smart manufacturing

The most recent tendencies and breakthroughs in digital technologies have made it possible to implement a new model of manufacturing. By es-tablishing a digital twin of the real environment and basing their judg-ments on that twin, digital systems are able to monitor, optimize, and man-age the processes that they are applied to. This concept is predicated on the creation of a “Digital Twin” for each individual production source that contributes to the overall manufacturing process. In spite of the fact that different real-world applications of digital twin may involve different tech-nical and operational specifics, a significant amount of work was put in over the past few years to recognize and express principal properties, in addition to the primary challenges involved in the practical implementa-tion of digital twins within related industries. The purpose of this article is to review and analyze the fundamental principles, ideas, and technological solutions that comprise the Digital Twin vision for production processes. As a result, the objective of this review is to provide a synopsis of the state-of-the-art regarding digital twin concepts and to analyze their most recent status in terms of their potential application and implementation.
