Case Studies: Digital Twins in Logistics

2019-12-17 | 2 min Logistics and Manufacturing

Why is digital twin technology important for supply chain automation? What role do digital twins play in intelligent logistics management? Listen to case studies from the LOGIN 2019 conference.

Digital twins are among the rapidly expanding technologies in IoT solutions. Digital twins are primarily used as a virtual image that allows monitoring the performance of devices and the movement of goods in real time. They are also used to create simulations and projections of logistics processes. Current cyber-physical systems and Smart Industry platforms already have digital twin technology in the form of autonomous intelligent software agents.

Software agents in the form of digital twins allow connecting physical objects and non-physical entities of the logistics environment with their virtual copies, which subsequently participate in the intelligent and autonomous management of processes and activities in intra-company and inter-company logistics.
