Manufacturers face a growing set of challenges, such as increasing global competition, growing product and process complexity, and ever-expanding environmental and safety regulations.

So how do companies modify and validate plant design changes fast and efficiently? How do they minimize the time required to add new process units, keep plant design data consistent and up to date, and how to enable effective collaboration between engineering disciplines? 

Hear Colm Gavin, Portfolio Development Manager at Siemens Digital Industries Software, discuss how leveraging a digital twin and digital thread approach, can help manufacturers: 

• Shorten time-to-market when launching new products
• Enable faster commissioning and error-free start-up of real production by pre-testing, simulation and virtual commissioning of machines
• Support efficient inter-disciplinary engineering workflows
