The factory of the future – more than just an automated assembly hall

Digital twins are essential for the development of the factory of the future. That’s the view of Dave Lauzun, Vice President of Automotive and Transportation Strategy at Siemens PLM. These digital twins – digital images of real-life products, production lines and product performance – enable Lauzun’s customers to assess how a change in function or process would affect an existing set-up without needing to risk trying it out in real life.
