Information Model of a Digital Process Twin for Machining Processes

Abstract

he development of digital process twins goes hand in hand with the digitalization of manufacturing’s production chain, especially in the machining of parts. The essential basis of these digital process twins is the information model, which describes the properties and relationships of all relevant data and information required to realize the processing task and a digital representation. This paper describes such an information model and presents the benefits and application potentials of digital process twins in the machining of parts.
